The symptoms occurring much less frequently now in the middle of the night refer back to preadolescent fears of immobility because of the parent. Helplessness when laying flat, you see, unconscious and in bed. They can be minimized in three fashions, in any of three fashions.

Your suggestion that he arise at once is an excellent one, intuitively received. This of course presupposes the fact that the symptoms are present to alarm him. If the alarm is set at four-hour intervals, this can eliminate the onset of symptoms, but in each case he would then rise and move about some. This does not seem necessary since the symptoms are now minimized, but I believe the step would prevent them entirely.

If he had awakened you, or if he would, the comfort of your presence would largely dissipate the symptoms, for it is the fear of being alone and immobile, you see, that is to him at such times, because of the parent, terrifying. This condition is temporary and already disappearing, as you know.

It was difficult in very early years for his mother to get about in the morning. Later he learned that his aunt was a slow riser, feeling sickly in the mornings. These two suggestions had much to do with the early morning symptoms, and these also, you see, are now vanishing.

When he felt he could not act following his uncompromising nature, he attempted to submit, you see. The resulting resentment was the true basis for all symptoms, and attracted the other sensitivities that nourished them.

This condition has vanished. The weight will now show gains, and the thyroid is operating at normal rates. The resentments are largely being nullified. They are not completely gone, or no symptoms would remain.

The arm crookedness developed shortly after he turned down the summer position, though by stages, and is related to the fact that the dream book, a possible means of support, is not ready to be sent out. Work on the dream book will help relieve the arm symptoms. Indeed his fingers released when he began to type again on that book.

His pendulum answered correctly. However the reasons I have given for evening symptoms entered in here. The night sensitivity, you see, vanished when our sessions began, and returned masked with symptoms when his difficulties began. Speaking his name will also help here. Such instances will become further separated however, and finally disappear.

You may take your break. He felt incapable of motion, you see, and interpreted this physically. Now the symptoms vanish because he realizes he does have mobility and freedom. He did not dare look to the left, nor the right.

This evening’s present symptoms are the result of the fact that Friday is already thought of as a school day. These can be dissipated if Ruburt reminds himself before sleeping of his intent to work on the dream book tomorrow and Friday morning.
