Developmental task
ERIK ERIKSON’S

Hope: Intimacy vs Isolation


Psychosocial Crisis: Intimacy vs Isolation
Virtue: Love and Affliation

In the initial stage of being an adult we seek one or more companions and love. As we
try to find mutually satisfying relationships, primarily through marriage and friends, we
generally also begin to start a family, though this age has been pushed back for many
couples who today don't start their families until their late thirties. If negotiating this
stage is successful, we can experience intimacy on a deep level.

If we're not successful, isolation and distance from others may occur. And when we
don't find it easy to create satisfying relationships, our world can begin to shrink as, in
defense, we can feel superior to others.

Our significant relationships are with marital partners and friends.

Intimacy means the process of achieving relationships with family and marital or mating
partner(s). Erikson explained this stage also in terms of sexual mutuality - the giving and
receiving of physical and emotional connection, support, love, comfort, trust, and all the
other elements that we would typically associate with healthy adult relationships
conducive to mating and child-rearing. There is a strong reciprocal feature in the
intimacy experienced during this stage - giving and receiving - especially between
sexual or marital partners.

Application Theory:

The case of CJS can be correlated with the theory of Nightingale wherein, the
environment of the patient is a factor leading to recovery. Having a clean, well ventilated
and quite environment is important in. With a nurturing environment, the body could
repair itself.
