Tapeworm

A tapeworm lives inside you without you noticing. It feeds on what you take in — silently, invisibly, parasitically. You eat, but the nutrients never reach you. You nourish yourself, but something else profits. Medically the matter is clear: a parasite that settles in the intestine, diverts nourishment, and gradually weakens the body.

But the psychosomatic perspective asks an uncomfortable question: why does your system allow a parasite? What in your inner life creates the breeding ground for something foreign to settle inside you — something that lives at your expense while you yourself are left empty?

The tapeworm is not a random event, but a mirror. It shows you how you live — and above all, how you don't live: not from your own core, not in your own strength, but in a way that drains you, because the energy doesn't reach where it belongs: with you.
