The author faces the theme of the depression in connection with the deep transformations of the actual society. The reference is to authors that explore the hypermodern culture. The individuals think the comfort as consumption of objects and the human relationships they become objects. The consequence is that it disappears the feeling to belong to a history that offers sense to the present. The depression is not therefore loss of objects of investment but radical feeling of an existential void. The family of origin is set as guarantor of identity contrasted to the brittleness of the to exist in the social one. It changes a lot the construction of the system couple that is invested of attended Messianic therapeutics for the personal brittleness. The lapse of such objectives it determines painful feelings of inadequacy and frustration attributed to the serious guilts of the partner. Possible therapeutic runs are proposed.

Keywords: Existential depression, hypermodern civilization, family bonds, illusion in the couple, attribution of the guilt, therapeutic procedures
