== Emotional conflict ==
[[Emotional conflict]] occurs when a person experiences two (or more) opposing [[emotion]]s/feelings at the same time, and those opposing feelings are pulling them in different directions.
[[Carl Jung]] indicated that "emotional conflicts and the intervention of the unconscious are the classical features of...medical psychology".<ref>C. G. Jung, Man and his Symbols (London 1964) p. 80</ref> The child psychoanalyst Eric Erickson indicated that emotional conflict was a source of [[Neurosis|neurosis]] in children.<ref>David L. Sills ed., International Encyclopedia of the Social Sciences: Vols 9-10 (1968) p. 158</ref>
Emotional conflict happens when:
* A person wishes to do something, but another part of the person doesn’t want to do it.
* A person feels both positive and negative emotions about the same person or situation.
* A person has two or more different values, desires, or needs inside themselves that are incompatible.
Emotional conflict can create stress, indecision, hesitation, and/or even physical tension. See also: [[Stress management]]
