Abstract

My thesis is an exploration of the neurotic human. I looked at its effects on social situations, the personal psyche, and the effects on the seemingly innocent bystander. I tried to approach the idea of neuroticism from as many angles as possible, to think outside the pre-labeled box of neuroticism, my goal being to show its vast reach on our everyday interactions. Varying from mild to extreme situations, neurotic behavior has massive social implications.
