Dr. A. Pevnitsky. Explicit phobias are symbols of the patient's secret fears. - Modern Psychiatry 1910 January - February
Neuropathic phobias, says the author, for all their seeming senselessness, are always deeply psychologically justified. They follow quite logically from what the patient has experienced and what he is trying to force out of his consciousness. Then, apparently unfounded phobias appear, which symbolically depict the secret doubts and anxieties of the patient. The disclosure by the psychoanalytic method of secret emotional experiences and the explanation to the patient of the true cause of his painful fears is the most rational treatment. Examples are given.
