1.The Case of an Abandoned Orphan 案例:一個被遺棄的孤兒
Joe, a 28 years old man, came to you to seek counseling because of his recent divorce after 3 years of marriage. He felt depressed, anxious and dejected wondering he would ever achieve a satisfying long-term relationship. He had 2 other previous intimate relationships and none of them lasted for more than a year. He described a pattern of becoming intensely attached to women and then, quickly becoming insecure and jealous. As a result, he ended up being controlling and abusive to them. He felt guilty for his abusive behavior and understood his inappropriate behavior towards women came from his sense of inadequacy and unworthiness about himself.
Joe 是一位28歲的男子,最近他剛離婚結束了三年的婚姻生活,因此到來向你尋求協助。
他感到苦悶、徬徨和沮喪情緒低落,他懷疑自己不能與人發展合適的長久關係。
Joe之前曾發展二段親密關係,但都不能持續超過一年。
他形容自己很快就能投入一段新的戀情,但隨之而來只有嫉妒和不安的感覺。
結果,最終因為Joe對伴侣極度支配和虐待以致關係結
束。
對於這種對伴侣的虐待行為,Joe知道是不適當而且是亳無價值的,為此他亦非常內疚。
Joe had been consuming 7 to 9 drinks of alcoholic beverages per day for some years. He also used cocaine a few times every month. In addition, he took a large amount of pain-killers that had been prescribed to him by his doctor ever since his knee surgery a couple years ago.
Joe已經有多年習慣每日飲用7至9杯的酒類飲品,他每月吸食幾次可卡因。
此外,他因二年前進行膝蓋手術並經醫生處方止痛藥後,而大量用這些止痛藥。
Joe and his elder brother were placed in an orphanage after his parents died in a car accident when they were age 11 and 13 respectively where they were physically abused and emotionally neglected. His elder brother committed suicide 2 years later. He was adopted by a childless elderly couple a few months later. Although his adopted parents never showed much affection towards him, he recalled the feeling of warmth and intimacy he experienced with them when they
shared alcoholic drinks with him after dinners on a regular basis since his adoption.
Joe的父母在一場車禍中去世,當時他和長兄分別11歲和13歲,並被送到孤兒院,期間受到身體虐待和忽略。
二年後長兄自殺。
幾個月後Joe 被一對沒兒女的夫婦收養,雖然這對夫婦沒有對Joe表現太多情感,但Joe 仍常記起與他們一起享用餐後酒的溫暖和親密感覺。
Despite of such a difficult childhood, he managed to do well in school. At the time of his request for counseling, he had been working as a research assistant in a pharmacology laboratory. He reported being well-liked and was given lots of responsibility at work. He commented that no one at work knew that he was such a failure in his personal life and he hoped that they would never find out!
