• Anthony Storr, reflecting on Jung's own judgment that he was "menaced by a psychosis" during this time, concluded that the period represented a psychotic episode.[8] rk note: I believe he was being haunted by demon: Freud, but did not have the verbiage to express it.
• see last paragraph of "Demonic Possession"
• rk note: from Adlerian approach:
• Patients of counseling psychology usually think there is going to be some sort of immediate, ultimate answer as to why they are having difficulties in their daily living...but this is not true. Said difficulties are part of life and it is a matter of how a person deals with them that provides insight for happiness in their life.
• Using the Socratic Method (gentle questioning or probing), the responsible therapist can assist the patient in discovering what role they themselves play in their disappointment with whatever the initial complaint is that leads them to counseling in the first place. rk.
