For example in the case of the young, happily married woman who sometimes awoke in the morning in with her limbs rigid, her mouth open and her tongue protruding. Freud could not come to any conclusion with the case until he spoke to her family doctor and it transpires that when the patient was a young girl she shared a room with her Grandmother and the Governess whom she was very found of. ...
