What is neurotic anxiety, according to May? Find an example of it in the case.
What will be an ideal response?
Neurotic anxiety, according to May, is anxiety that develops from not being able to deal with normal anxiety. Camille is demonstrating neurotic anxiety when she believes that all people will judge her negatively and respond to her with criticism. She was never able to develop an effective coping mechanism to deal with her parents’ steady stream of criticism. Instead, she developed an ineffective coping mechanism (silence and shyness), which she applied to other non-related situations.
