Types of personality and

Between the disease and the structure of the body found a correlation between personality traits and certain diseases. Psychologists and therapists involved in these very relationships and approach to the disease, on the other hand, the doctors. This is by no means a substitute for drugs and other medicine developed methods of treatment; and still therapy sometimes leads to stunning results. There are certain personality types, which are established by psychologists, prone to thyroid disease.

For patients with hypothyroidism is characterized by lack of interest and the total lack of initiative in daily activities - at work, at school, in housekeeping. Lack of interest also extends to social activity. In most cases, hypothyroidism may develop after a person refuses to achieve the desired goal, leaving the hope and subordinates his life unpleasant routine to which he feels an inner loathing.

This psychological situation can be compared to the emotional "sit-in". When a person for some reason can not show their true inclinations and meet their real needs when he is forced to deal with a boring activity contrary to his own will, he develops its own form of protest. This emotional state is often accompanied by violent fantasies, in which these people can afford to carry out their wishes, and "life" - abandoning any effort and ambition.

Here are some specific psychological factors that can be traced in hypothyroidism.

- No hope of achieving a desired goal; fruitless struggle against insurmountable obstacles.

- Lack of genuine motives. Activity, especially monotonous, which is performed primarily under the influence of external pressure or by self-constraint, but not based on any real interest.

- In some cases under the influence of prolonged compensatory aggressiveness frustration occurs, which leads to anxiety. In the future, it helps avoiding regressive activity.

Hyperthyroidism often develops after strong emotions and acute difficulties in life, if you have a constitutional predisposition and appropriate family relations at an early age of the patient. The death of loved ones, accidents, loss experience may serve as a starting torque or cause a relapse of hyperthyroidism has stabilized.

Among the stressful situations that lead to the disease in the first place are experiencing serious grief, fear, fright. These emotions, being quite adequate to experience the event, however inadequately maintained. destruction remain in the nervous system and a reaction that is wrong recycling, develops into a stable pathology.

In cases where the provoking or enhancing disease events are clearly not available, carefully collected history almost always allows you to see that patients are always in a difficult, stressful situation.

As a distinctive feature of the psychological data of patients, most authors noted an increased need for stimulation. In patients with hyperthyroidism show willingness to constantly overfulfill job. There is a hypothesis that a child of these patients were forced to the level of independence, to cope with which they were not ready yet. It could be such a situation, as an early mother loss, divorce or the parents quarrel, premature children involved in parental conflicts or in the education of younger brothers and sisters.

A patient with hyperthyroidism were significantly more is the oldest of several children. These patients have the impression of mature individuals, but the maturity is not adequate in all situations and only with difficulty conceal weakness and fear, fear of sexual adult life, before parting or own responsibility, or even going to have to survive. Their imaginations are filled with dying and death.

The desire for social success, work and responsibility among these people perform, apparently complacency function. Most lifelong refers to an advance definitely, shall communicate with the obligation to exhaustion of social success and safety.

In childhood, these patients experienced an unusual attachment to the mother and dependent on it, so they could not tolerate even the slightest threat that she will always love them. Often these people in a child suffering from a lack of care because of the economic situation of the family, divorce, death of someone close, or that there are many brothers and sisters. Persistent threat of well-being in early childhood leads to a premature and unsuccessful attempts to identify itself with an adult subject.

It also leads to early stress and overload of the endocrine system and the further frustration of the children's thirst dependence. Because of this failure, the patient is constantly striving to premature self-affirmation and tries to outdo the other, to the detriment of the attention and feelings. He has to build a defense against repetition intolerable feelings of isolation and rejection, that fell to his lot as a child. If these mechanisms break down, in genetically predisposed subject may develop hyperthyroidism.

As with some other psychosomatic diseases, the question remains: why patients respond to the high demands of life not regress and passive withdrawal, and vice versa, thus speeding up efforts.
