Anne Baxter
challenges and difficulties

Anne Baxter takes her personal relationships so seriously that they may seem more like work, constant effort and compromise, rather than a free and enjoyable sharing experience. She may feel that relationships in general require more of her than they are worth, and Anne enters into any close relationship cautiously and conscientiously. Anne Baxter also fears entrapment in close relationships.

Baxter is generally not a "joiner" and she does not feel comfortable in clubs, organizations or other groups of people that are centered on some common ideal or interest. If Anne Baxter does participate in a group, she may find the rules and procedures restrictive - or she may simply feel that she does not fit in with the others.

Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits Anne Baxter better than being with groups of her own peers.

The side of Anne Baxter that wants and needs structure, order, stability, and a disciplined way of life is at odds with her urges for unfettered freedom, change, excitement, and discovery. There is apt to be much discontent, inner stress, and tension as a result, and at times Anne finds it hard to relax. Anne Baxter may act out in a rebellious way now and then, or clamp down hard on herself, in an attempt to strictly control her "wild" impulses. Baxter's task is to try to find a reasonable balance between order and creative chaos in her life.

She may feel inhibited in her relationships with others and give the impression of being unapproachable and wanting to keep her distance. Anne Baxter thinks about her feelings for a long time before she expresses them to anyone and she tends to hide her inner self.

She is inclined to be rather serious and withdrawn. As she feels very uncomfortable in the presence of others, Anne Baxter shies away from social contacts and prefers to be by herself.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Anne Baxter instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that she is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for her. The direction Anne Baxter needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Her natural instinct, especially when under stress, is to passively go along with whatever is easiest, refrain from clearly analyzing or assessing her situation and perhaps even try to escape from seeing her situation clearly by indulging in fantasies, intoxicants, and the like. Dreaminess and impracticality, being unfocused and undefined (at least in certain areas) are ways Anne Baxter copes with stress. Anne Baxter also has trouble setting limits and saying no.

Her development path lies in cultivating discrimination and clarity, becoming more precise, and developing technical and practical skills that will enable Anne Baxter to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of practical service is also important.

It is in any involvements she has with teams, clubs, organizations, networks, and the like that Anne Baxter is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above need to be channeled into some sort of group effort or experience, or have some impact on society at large.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Anne Baxter back, or which she is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Going to extremes, willful rebelliousness and an instinctive anti-authoritarian attitude. Anne Baxter seeks constant (and often purposeless) movement or change, involvement with unreliable people, and individual freedom at any cost.
