Psychosomatics: skin
Reflects an unmet need for closeness
Skin problems — eczema, allergies, rashes — are often tied to the gap between the relationships a person needs and the ones they actually have. As the body's first point of contact with the world, the skin reacts when interaction with the environment fails to meet a deep-seated need.
Possible psychological causes
- Unmet need for a specific type of relationship
- Disrupted contact with environment
- Conflict between the need for closeness and actual situation
- Heightened sensitivity to environmental influences
Self-reflection questions
- ?Which relationships don't match your current needs?
- ?What has changed in your contact with others?
- ?What type of interaction are you seeking but not finding?
