Wilson presents clinical material about an adult female who developed asthma for the first time during the terminal phase of her analysis. Further analysis of the transference led to a cessation of asthmatic attacks and a successful termination. The author feels that there is no specific personality profile in asthmatics, and that the unconscious fantasies leading to asthmatic attacks vary from patient to patient.
