Psychosomatics: skin
A mirror of an unmet need for closeness
Skin problems — eczema, allergies, breakouts — often trace back to the gap between the relationships you need and the ones you actually have. The skin is the body's first point of contact with the world, and when that contact falls short of a real need, this is where the body reacts.
Possible psychological causes
- An unmet need for a particular kind of relationship
- Broken contact with the world around you
- A clash between the need for closeness and the actual situation
- Heightened sensitivity to outside influences
Self-reflection questions
- ?Which relationships no longer match what you need?
- ?What has changed in how you connect with people?
- ?What kind of contact are you looking for but not finding?
