"confidence is felt on the basis of experience and will be different for every individual. [...]
the institutional object, like the transitional object, represents all the phenomena associated with contextualizing the psychotherapeutic cure and foregrounding the environment.
The question of confidence is just as vital for Guattari.
[...]
Despite themselves, psychiatric hospitals produce illness rather than treat it.
The institutional object is known by means of group subjectivity, and the innovative conceptual tool used to pose the question is transversality."

"Subjectivity is a group phenomenon. It is completely deindividuated and depersonalized and ecologized, a consequence of foregrounding the social environment of the institution. There are different kinds of subjectivity, but they are always of the group. Subjectivity involves, then, non-predetermined interrelations, non-linear and non-logical 'evolution', and the production of differences. [...]
Guattari also developed a sense of the between, the potential space. [...] Transversality is explicitly a creature of the middle. Guattari places the greatest emphasis on the potential as in virtual: it isn't contained in the actual and isn't constrained by typical dyadic frames(analyst-analysand)[...]
It is, rather, a space in which becomings are truly creative— radically open and simply not what is now actual."
