Psoriasis manifests itself after a conflict of separation, you may not be
in contact with something or someone because of death, separation, divorce,
etc. The loss of contact, as also happens in the animal kingdom, represents a
major conflict for the person who has it.
Behind psoriasis, the individual always hides a great fear to separate from
what he/she loves, afraid to change direction, afraid to live apart from that
which makes you feel protected. "I feel attacked in this relationship,
attacked, wounded" "I feel lonely and need protection" "I
need to protect myself".
But what kind of protection? The role of traditional protection is
exercised by the parent or the person representing the paternal function, which
in some cases may be the mother. “I need you Dad, I do not feel protected
anymore, so I protect myself with increasing the thickness of my skin!”
The need for parental protection may be demonstrated when the affected is
exposed to sunlight, the improvement is evident. It is well known that the Sun,
to the collective unconscious, represents the father.
"The more I'm under the sun, the more I am in touch with the
protective figure of my father and, therefore, I feel protected"
Similarly, it can cause psoriasis if I, as real or symbolic father, I
could not "protect" someone. Example: A 10 year old boy, whose father
physically abused his mother and develops this symptom when he was admitted to
a boarding school, he could not protect his mother.
We can also develop psoriasis when two simultaneous separation conflicts
occur because of what we feel unprotected. They will always be two different
conflicts with each other, but related. Or, one of them is a consequence of the
other. It always occurs in this way: One of the conflicts assaulted me, that
is, forces me to part with something against my will. The other conflict makes
me live a painful separation and a new life. One of those two emotional
conflicts is latent, active, and present in my daily life because I have not
been able to overcome it. I still suffer. The other conflict is no longer is in
the healing phase. I lived and suffered it, but somehow I'm over it, I
understood, assimilated and released it.
On one hand, I am physically separated from my father, mother, family,
friends and, on the other hand, I am separate from myself, my principles, and
my identity. Example: A teenager moves to study in another country (physical
separation) where they have other customs, another way of seeing life, that
does not match what he/she feels (if separation).
Psoriasis represents itself that have ceased to be in contact with
something or someone because of a conflict. And that such separation is very
painful.
Psoriasis is like a dry shell that masks a secret desire to be loved and
cherished. It usually manifests itself in hypersensitive individuals
(skin-sensitive) that need love from others but that, paradoxically, are afraid
to contact and protected. Consequently, they need to toughen up, to get inside
a shell that isolates him/her from the outside, which protects you from injury,
but also prevents access to affection, love and tenderness.
This person is in a situation of emotional loneliness, and may even
suffer an identity problem because they do not feel recognized for what it is.
He/she finds it difficult to accept who she is in this life. So it seems you
want to renew your skin, because it does not feel good in it (separation
conflict itself).
"I try to protect myself and the best way is to separate from me,
being someone else"
Recommendations to recover physical, emotional and spiritual health:
Soooo true. My mother never loved me and I am separate from her from my childhood. Makes soo much sense now for my suffering with psoriasis
ReplyDeleteNot having my father in my life and having psoriasis for just about my whole life, makes me think, there is some validity to this article.
