Re: Analyze This - Jan's real life cases: the story of Rex

Subject:

Comments:
: Rex is E1 and his father is E9. : Clues for Rex: : He is ready to discuss problems with a therapist. Brought process motivation to therapy. History of positive experiences in psychotherapy. : He has anxiety in public-speaking situations. Performance anxiety. Wants to feel greater sense of control and assurance in these situations. : Anger, rage- real issue. Breaking windows, damaging self. Afterwards feelings of guilt. : Before expressing an opinion I begin to be quite self-concious. : If I endow even another individual with this critical, judgmental, powerful kind of critiquing role capacity, I would be more at ease. : He always felt he is not meeting his own expectations. High ambitions for himself. The stakes are high: A kind of superbowl in which he had to do well, to vanquish or to be vanquished. : He does better with defined task. Limbo state of uninvolvement and unrecognition with father was intolerable. : >If it wasn't for the positive performances with therapy, the rage, and the anxiety (plus heavy heart rate and heavy perspiration- panic attack?) I would not be able to say if Rex was 1 or 3. As a whole with his picture I am almost sure he is 1. : Clues for the father: : Lack of focus, lack of memory, indifference, lack of awareness, non-involvement with Rex except in competitive situations, unstable, not so predictable, alcoholic. : These point out that he is a 9 with access to 3 and 6. : Gigi
