About this test
▼
This test explores five dimensions of the absent father wound: the nature of the absence (physical or emotional), its impact on self-esteem and identity, its repercussions on romantic relationships and attachment, and the repair mechanisms developed (anger, idealization, quest for recognition, avoidance).

Identifying precisely the nature and intensity of this wound is an essential step toward repair.

- ●Self-Esteem and Identity- Impact of the father's absence on self-confidence, the sense of legitimacy and identity construction.
- ●Relationships and Attachment- Repercussions on romantic relationships: fear of abandonment, attraction to the unavailable, difficulty trusting.
- ●Anger and Repair- Mechanisms developed in response to the wound: anger, idealization, quest for recognition, avoidance.
- ●Readiness to Change- Measures your current readiness to acknowledge the impact of this topic on your life and engage in a process of growth.
