Introduction
They have problems getting a relationship, often as a result of being too shy. It is as if they are still at the beginning of puberty. They think that they will not be interesting enough for the other sex and they do not have the self-confidence to make advances to them. They fear that others might take advantage of them. They also think others may see them as ugly and nasty. This makes them shy and they spend their time living alone, a solitary existence that they might pretend to like but in essence they hate it.
Mind
Love-lorn over a puppy love. Heartbreak in puberty.
Like a girl of 15, staying in her room, feeling misunderstood, closed, "they do not understand me". She does not want to talk about her heartbreak. She stands a bit haughtily above it all.
Feeling misunderstood, by the world, by parents, by boyfriends.
Desire for sex and aversion to sex.
Delusion: men only want sex; there is not only a handful of men but a land full of them.
Looks at things from a distance; has seen everything already.
Many thoughts. Living in their head, not grounded in their body.
Become dizzy, being in states of love.
Fragile; withered easily.
Dry, tough, even when wet.
Serene.
Melancholy; nostalgia.
Body
Head: shrinking in neck, holding head down and forward, hands in front of neck and mouth.
Mouth: tasteless and still not tasty, rather bad taste.
Throat: pain, raw, rasping, cracking.
Abdomen: nausea, feeling of fullness, aversion to eating.
Skin: wounds, abscess, inflammations.
