Introduction
They fear that when they make a choice for their own good, they will be left alone, so they are in conflict with themselves, not knowing what to choose. The situation they are in is unpleasant, like in a marriage where there is no love anymore. But the idea of leaving the husband produces all kinds of anxieties about how to survive alone in the threatening world, so they often stay in a situation that they do not like at all. There they feel caught, as if bound by wires. Their mood becomes depressed and dark, with the well-known symptom as if a dark cloud surrounds them.
This situation can also occur during pregnancy. They feel imprisoned by their child, they cannot divorce.
