Hate revisited: power, envy, and greed in the rehabilitation setting.

Hate has been recognized as an important psychological element in the rehabilitation setting. Hate emanates from a variety of sources, including the patient, his family, and staff; it can also stem from various systems influences and is perpetuated by power, envy, and greed. This article examines several systems factors that contribute to hate and conflict in the rehabilitation setting. It is argued that the growth and rapid expansion of rehabilitative services, the incorporation of rehabilitation enterprises along with new career opportunities, and quests for power potentially contribute to the enhancement of hate. Ultimately, this hate can interfere with the quality of care and outcomes in rehabilitation if it is not recognized and addressed.

Technical approaches to transference hate in the analysis of borderline patients.

Transference hate presents a major obstacle to effective analytic work with borderline patients. In a subgroup of these patients, the analyst is hated relentlessly in a manner that seems unresponsive to interpretation. The persistent projective identification of hated aspects of the patient's internal world may erode the analyst's ability to maintain his analytic posture and lead to various forms of countertransference acting out. A prolonged period of containment is required for both patient and analyst before they are likely to converge in an 'analytic space' where interpretation will be effective.

Hate crimes against lesbians and gay men. Issues for research and policy.

Antigay hate crimes (words or actions that are intended to harm or intimidate individuals because they are lesbian or gay) constitute a serious national problem. In recent surveys, as many as 92% of lesbians and gay men report that they have been the targets of antigay verbal abuse or threats, and as many as 24% report physical attacks because of their sexual orientation. Assaults may have increased in frequency during the last few years, with many incidents now including spoken references to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome by the assailants. Trends cannot be assessed, however, because most antigay hate crimes are never reported and no comprehensive national surveys of antigay victimization have been conducted. Suggestions are offered for research and policy.

Taking care of the hateful patient.

"Hateful patients" are not those with whom the physician has an occasional personality clash. As defined here they are those whom most physicians dread. The insatiable dependence of "hateful patients" leads to behaviors that group them into four stereotypes: dependent clingers, entitled demanders, manipulative help-rejecters and self-destructive deniers. The physician' negative reactions constitute important clinical data that should facilitate better understanding and more appropriate psychological management for each. Clingers evoke aversion; their care requires limits on expectations for an intense doctor-patient relationship. Demanders evoke a wish to counterattack; such patients need to have their feelings of total entitlement rechanneled into a partnership that acknowledges their entitlement--not to unrealistic demands but to good medical care. Help-rejecters evoke depression; "sharing" their pessimism diminishes their notion that losing the symptom implies losing the doctor. Self-destructive deniers evoke feeling of malice; their management requires the physician to lower Faustian expectations of delivering perfect care.

Patients who hate.

Few experiences in the life of the mental health professional are more unpleasant than being intensely hated by a patient he is trying to help. In most cases the hatred is mitigated by periods where the patient sees the treater as more helpful and less malevolent, a shift that makes the treatment process more tolerable. However, there are patients who hate relentlessly, presenting a challenge that taxes the therapist's emotional and intellectual resources to an extraordinary degree.

Dentist and laboratory: a "love-hate" relationship.

The author's intent has been to promote a close working relationship between the dentist and the technician. Certainly, McCracken was doing that when he said that he hoped they could "work together in proper sequence to develop restorations that are biologically and mechanically sound and to produce removable partial dentures that reflect continuous progress in prosthetic dentistry". That's the secret. The dentist and the technician should work together and in proper sequence. Too often dental education and the dental profession have seemed to espouse the idea that the technician must function as an automaton in the fabrication of removable partial dentures. The practitioner of general dentistry can certainly ask for ideas and suggestions from the technician and still control the ultimate outcome. The dentist can share thoughts with the technician to ameliorate the "love-hate" relationship and still be responsible for the removable partial denture treatment.

Grandparenting: intergenerational love and hate.

Grandparenthood can have multiple meanings for grandparents just as grandchildhood can have diverse meanings for grandchildren. Ideally the joys of being a grandparent help to compensate for life's sorrows, although premature grandparenthood may be experienced instead as a nuisance or even a burden if grandparents have to assume parental responsibilities. Of course, storybook grandparents including the grandfathers of Heidi, Little Lord Fauntleroy, and the Box Car Children, never seem to resent having to act as surrogate parents. They enjoy it and do a superb job of meeting their grandchildren's needs. The popularity of these stories is probably due to the vicarious pleasure they provide for children who are angry at their parents and fantasizing about more gratifying caretakers--their grandparents. Grandparents who have a good relationship with their adult children and the children's spouses are more likely to develop a gratifying relationship with their grandchildren, though occasionally grandparents and grandchildren unite against the generation in between. Children utilize grandparents as objects for identification, as links to their history and as a source of pleasure and comfort. When idealization is given up in adolescence, the grandparent-grandchild relationship often continues to be mutually accepting and relatively free of conflict. Grandparents are provided a third opportunity to resolve developmental crises as they observe and try to help grandchildren struggling with the same crisis.

Hate

A "hateful epileptic" patient in the burn unit.

An interdisciplinary team discussed the case of a 31-year-old woman who sustained second- and third-degree burns while having a seizure. She was a difficult patient who elicited a good deal of negative feelings from the staff. The interview raised the possibility of this burn having been a suicidal attempt, and the subsequent discussion centered on effective ways of relating to her pathologic defense mechanisms. The need for a comprehensive approach that took into consideration the biologic, psychologic, and social aspects of her needs became evident to all the participants.
