Rachel is a very attractive woman in her mid thirties, who has come for counseling because although she is never without a boyfriend and frequently has more than one pursuing her, she finds that she cannot sustain a meaningful and lasting relationship with any of them. The men she gets involved with only seem to stick around for a moment and then leave. Rachel despises herself for sometimes being gullible in her desperate search to be loved. This self-hatred got so strong a couple of years ago that she took an overdose, but she was found in time by a neighbor and taken to hospital. The psychiatrist who saw her suggested that her inability to sustain love in others might be connected to the fact that as a child, she was severely deprived of love since her mother, a single parent, resented having to give up a promising career as an actress to look after her. Rachel does not accept this interpretation. She exclaims “I don’t believe in psychiatrists, I’m not mad. I don’t believe in all the rubbish about my mother, I don’t need her. I just want someone to help me find out what I’m doing wrong, so that I can find someone nice and settle down.”
