Parasites

Published on Isolated symptoms.

The person who has parasites is someone that has surrendered power to others. He accepts that others take control of his life. He allows himself to be sucked dry by others. He is not centred and lacks self-esteem. He is incapable of saying No in an assertive manner. His inner and outer beings are not aligned. “Who has been taking advantage of me an sucking me dry?”

The word parasite is essential in this context. If the person lets himself to be affected by parasites, this means he is not centred and does not know how to be assertive with the people around him. It means that there is someone in his life that is a parasite and lives off him, whether at home, work, or amongst friends. It could also be his Mother. The person is clinging to the past and to his beliefs, and this is the reason why he cannot stand up to the parasite with the degree of assertiveness he ought to have. He feels frustration because he is convinced he will no longer be accepted by that person if he changes his attitude towards that person. The person feels unable to progress in a tranquil way.
