The manipulative help rejecters are those patients who are always presenting with fresh symptoms, and as soon as one is treated, another arises, leading to an unbreakable chain of treatments, operations, and contact with doctors.

This behaviour should not be simply dismissed as "hypochondria", as it arises from dread of losing the doctor, to whom the patient is very deeply attached and on whom he depends.

Die Ablehner unter den Patienten konfrontieren ihren Arzt mit immer neuen Symptomen, sobald ein Symptom behandelt worden ist, so dass es zu einer nicht abreißenden Kette von Behandlungen, Operationen und Arztkontakten kommt.

Dieses Verhalten ist nicht einfach unter den Begriff "Hypochondrie" zu subsumieren, weil es der Angst entspringt, den behandelnden Arzt, auf den diese Kranken sehr angewiesen und dem sie innerlich stark verbunden sind, zu verlieren.
