- Abstract:
- This is the dramatization of the case history of Margaret, a 23-year-old girl who has physical disorders with no clear cause. A psychiatrist, probing Margaret's past, shows her the root of her troubles--childhood overprotection and discouragement of her efforts to express herself, resulting in a crippling fear of failure and a complete inability to assert herself. When Margaret understands her problem, she begins to handle it, starting new and healthier habits of behavior.
