Allergy – which comes from the Greek allos (strange, different) and ergos (reaction, activity) is a process by which an individual recognizes a particle or substance called an allergen (harmless to most people) as foreign.
Instead, it provokes in him a response from his immune system. Giving rise to a series of characteristic clinical manifestations such as runny nose, sneezing, itching, rashes, edema (swelling) and asthma.
The allergy appears due to an initial emotional psycho-shock, a destabilizing event that exceeds the individual’s tolerance threshold.
What is an emotional psycho-shock?
-It is an unpleasant event of daily life that comes unexpectedly, that takes us by surprise and destabilizes us…
-Lived in an isolated way, in solitude and without sharing it with other people.
What we live in isolation is what we feel. It is not what we live on the outside, but what we feel on the inside, what we experience alone, the resentment.
-No satisfactory solution for us, at that time, although perhaps for other people it does.
-Of real dramatic intensity, or felt as such.
The unconscious can live it in a symbolic way, but it does not know how to distinguish between the real and the symbolic.
There are two stages in the genesis of an allergy:
The first stage is the “mute” phase, silent, called sensitization or identification of the aggressor: the allergen. It’s allergy programming.
The immune system identifies a foreign body, analyzes it and manufactures specific and silent antibodies, memorizing the characteristics of the intruder.
It is related to a very precise dramatic event that occurred at the very moment we came into contact with the allergen.
There is a direct relationship between an emotional psycho-shock and an external element where we project the psycho-shock.
The body memorizes the substance or element that was present at the time of the drama.
The immune system classifies it as something dangerous because it is associated with a painful emotion and tries to eliminate it when it detects it in the body.
A person has been exposed to a food, medicine or element throughout their lives but from a certain moment, the moment of the drama, there will be a physical rejection.
This is the first exposure, the identification, where the allergen is recorded. From this moment on, the unconscious associates the shocking episode and the allergen to form an inseparable duo.
It is the instant that the unconscious leads to oblivion because it is a very painful experience.
The allergen is a simple warning of an imminent danger, known but hidden, it is the warning of the painful, unpleasant memory of the first time.
In this stage there are no physical symptoms.
The second stage or “noisy” phase is when, in a second contact with the same allergen, the antibodies, silent until now, become reactive and trigger an excessive response “allergic reaction”.
This is when the clinical symptoms appear.
The allergic crisis is nothing more than a new confrontation with the allergen that represents the initial destabilizing drama and that remains hidden in the unconscious.
To heal the allergy, we have to search the unconscious for the destabilizing drama to identify the hidden emotion and resentment, express it (emotional discharge) and try to find a way out for the emotional change to occur.
An example: Allergy to nuts. A married couple agree with several other couples to spend the weekend at the country house of one of them.
At a time when they were all together, having an aperitif, a strong argument broke out between the couple.
The boyfriend, after telling her that he no longer wants to continue the relationship, ends up leaving the place alone.
The girlfriend, shocked by everything that had happened (psycho-shock), was eating nuts.
This destabilizing event will be forgotten by this young woman, painful as it is.
The next time you come into contact with nuts, the allergy symptoms will appear.
It’s like a warning: every time you eat nuts you will unconsciously remember the painful emotional situation.
The unconscious to protect her displaces the emotion towards the physical body (sneezing, rashes, itching or swelling of the eyes, etc.).
In this way, by dealing with the annoying allergic reaction, you forget about the painful trauma related to the substance (nuts).
It must be borne in mind that most allergies are triggered by episodes that occur between the age of seven and our current time.
Only a very low percentage of allergic processes lead us to look at the experiences that occurred to our mother during the time of her pregnancy or in our ancestors.
These are those cases in which we are sensitive to certain foods, substances, etc. and we are from our birth or from the first years of life.
The clinical signs will guide us very precisely towards the central origin of the allergy:
When the eyes are affected with tearing, itching, inflation, they will lead us towards a dramatic visual experience. Not wanting or not being able to see or having lost sight of something or someone.
When she is the one affected with pruritus (itching), eczema, hives, etc., we will look for conflicts related to separations.
If it is the larynx, cough or laryngeal asthma, they will lead us to dramas in which fear has been very present.
If those affected are the bronchi, through bronchitis and asthma, we must direct our investigation towards fights and shouting in the family environment.
Or look at the family tree death of a member of the clan due to suffocation problems.
When the symptoms appear in the mind, they guide us towards conflictive experiences where the “harmful” factor or “it smells very bad” stands out.
The conduct to adopt before an allergy:
First of all we have to go looking for all possible historical details of the dramatic emotional experience of the allergic person.
And find the connection between the sensitization phase and the first allergic crisis.
The girlfriend became sensitized to nuts when her boyfriend stood her up (abandonment, separation) in front of his friends while they were eating nuts.
The allergic reaction to this food was triggered some time later during a celebration, in which, among other appetizers, were nuts.
The common denominator between these two episodes had been nuts
So when faced with an allergy we must ask ourselves:
Since when? Before having the first allergy outbreak, when was I in contact with that allergen? Was it a month, two months or a year ago?
What is the allergic reaction, what are the symptoms and what organ or part of our body does it affect?
Now it is necessary to situate ourselves and relive the situation in time and space, as if it were happening right now.
And try to find the emotion associated with the event and express the resentment that was stored in the unconscious at that moment.
And finally we have to find a resource.
A conscious exit from the first situation so that the emotional change and the possible healing of the allergy take place.
