“Depression makes you seek lonely places, and that is what I started doing during the second semester of my first year in college. The black creek, the woods, the empty fields, the old cemetery-anywhere away from people, away from their critical eyes.

“A child in its greed for love does not enjoy having to share the affection of its parents with its brothers and sisters; and it notices that the whole of their affection is lavished upon it once more whenever it arouses their anxiety by falling ill. It has now discovered a means of enticing out its parents' love and will make use of that means as soon as it has the necessary psychical material at its disposal for producing an illness.” MeanChildrenDoeWholeUseFallParentEnjoyShareBrotherMaterialsAnxietyGreedIllAffectionIllnessBrothers And SistersParents LoveEnticing Book:Dora: An Analysis of a Case of Hysteria Source: Dora: An Analysis of a Case of Hysteria
