Case Example

Harry (see case example 1, p. 83) is in his third term at university. At the beginning of his studies he made fewer new acquaintances than most of his fellow students because he avoided social situations such as parties or other student gatherings. Now he feels that everyone else knows each other, but he still doesn’t belong. He feels awful about this, and his avoidance becomes even stronger.

He suffers from a similar pattern with his exams, assignments, and tests. Most of the other students keep up quite well with the schedule, but Harry has already piled up a backlog of exams and assignments to be done: he feels helplessly overstrained, ashamed and inferior to the other students. Of course, this further increases his avoidance! He can hardly stop ruminating and is no longer sleeping well – he shows the first clinical signs of depression.
