In addition to hypertension, the patient suffered from ejaculatio præcox, anxiety, a cardiac neurosis with precordial distress, tachycardia, and extrasystoles. The conflict is a masochistic-submissive, orally dependent attitude toward a dominating mother, leading to a masochistic-submissive attitude to a rigid superego and a deep attachment to the father. There developed a chronic, unsuccessful, unsatisfied rebellion and hostility against this submission. The rebellion and hostility were conscious, or near to consciousness, but not expressed directly because of fear of loss of love. The masochistic homosexual submissiveness was not conscious and bitter hostility opposed making it conscious in the analysis. The hypertension seemed to be related to the hostile rebellion against the masochistic submissiveness with consequent anxiety.
