"...neurotic symptoms are connected with some conscious
experience. They even appear to be split-off areas of the conscious mind
which, at another time and under different conditions, can be conscious,
just as an hysterical anaesthesia can be there one moment and gone the
next, only to reappear again after a while. Breuer and Freud recognized
more than half a century ago that neurotic symptoms are meaningful and
make sense inasmuch as they express a certain thought. In other words,
they function in the same manner as dreams: they symbolize. "
(Carl Gustav Jung, Vol 18, par. 421)
