Pink Floyd's song,“Wish You Were Here” is evocative of what happens in Brainlock:.
Brainlock is an anti-generative psychological,
and ultimately, biological adaptation that maintains distance from experience of other, thus disallowing intimacy.
Regardless, the caretaker's urgent purpose, i.e., the purpose of Brainlock, is to protect himself from an unstable, unsafe world.
In Brainlock, specifically in a romantic relationship,
two people get stuck- initially because an unvarying routine allowed them feel safe;
Otherwise, he would be allowing himself to be placed“under obligation,”
and, therefore, vulnerable, which is what Brainlock is designed to prevent.
Irrelationship as expression of Brainlock is the place where we“store” the material
and experiences that are too painful to allow into our consciousness.
