A clue to Maslow's desire hierarchy for a case in which a woman in her 30s diagnosed with hypochondria psychosis (Illness Anxiety Disorder DSM-5) continued to complain of pain as an expression of anger coming from being unable to accept the diagnosis In a process where the therapist accepts and empathizes with basic desires (physiological / safety), psychological desires (affiliation and love / approval and respect) and self-realization desires (growth motivation and desire to live in their own way) I commented on the changing situation.
