Fear of losing control may explain a wide range of mental health conditions, according to a new theory. Here's why, by swhitbo
As you can see from these case studies, even though the symptoms of each of the disorders were very different, they share the element of a fear that some combination of their bodily sensations, thoughts, emotions, or actions will get away from them. Furthermore, while reading these clinical cases, did some of them partially resonate with you? Perhaps you’ve worried that you’ll lash out at someone who annoys you. Maybe you’ve had thoughts that you can’t seem to stamp out.
As noted in the clinical cases, helping individuals understand that they can control their own internal reactions can prove to be a unifying factor in therapy. For a theory to be a theory of “everything” in psychology, though, it needs to incorporate the entire range of people’s behaviors, not just those that fit into diagnostic categories.
