title: [The pathology of susceptibility to hurt feelings].
abstract: Working from a survey of the psychoanalytical literature, this paper develops the thesis of a specific pathology of the susceptibility to feeling hurt. Susceptibility to feeling hurt and the state of feeling hurt are described first by listing definite symptoms and deficient forms of coping. The characteristics of heightened susceptibility to feeling hurt are compiled on the basis of various psychodynamic interpretations and in the terminology of the psychoanalytical theory of neuroses. Symptoms, deficient forms of coping and psychodynamic methods of interpretation are then related to the four levels of experiencing urge. From this, finally, the thesis of a specific pathology of the susceptibility to feeling hurt is derived as characterized by a group of specific inhibitions and attitudes.
