Abstract

The study analyzed the nature and essence of sexuality as a guarantee of relations between people, providing for the consistent solution of the following tasks: a) to show that it is in the context of this phenomenon that one should look for the focus of a person’s self, its uniqueness; b) determine that the realization of sexuality causes actualization of self-attitude, the result of which is the significant psychophysiological and philosophical changes in the personality.

The realization of sexuality at the first stage of the awareness of the inseparability of love causes oppression of individuality, dissolution of consciousness, a complete subordination of the subject to his feeling and involves a study of the type of “bodily disease”, which progresses and requires treatment. However, the desire for survival introduces the process of “self-medication”, when the subject of unrequited love, under the influence of “self-care”, namely about his own body, revives his individuality, but at a higher level.
