A ‘Diagnosis’
Your Existing Situation: “Seeks to express the need for identification in a sensitive and intimate atmosphere where esthetic or emotional delicacy can be protected or nurtured.”
Your Stress Resources: “The situation is regarded as threatening or dangerous. Outraged by the thought that she will be unable to achieve her goals and distressed at the feeling of helplessness to remedy this. Over-extended and feels beset, possibly to the point of nervous prostration.”
Your Restrained Characteristics: “Circumstances are such that she feels forced to compromise for the time being if she is to avoid being cut off from affection or from full participation. Believes that she is not receiving her share - that she is neither properly understood or adequately appreciated. Feels that she is being compelled to conform, and close relationships leave her without any sense or emotional involvement.”
Your Desired Objective: “In despair and needs relief of some sort. Wants physical ease, a problem free security, and the chance to recover.”
Your Actual Problem: “Agitation, unpredictability, and irritation accompanying depleted vitality and intolerance of further demands have all placed her in a position in which she feels menaced by her circumstances. Feeling powerless to remedy this by any action of her own, she is desperately hoping that some solution will provide a way of escape.”
