What Could be Causing Stubbornness?

What Causes Stubbornness?

Stubbornness can have various causes, just like most other symptoms. Finding the true cause means ruling out or confirming each possibility – in other words, diagnosis.

Diagnosis is usually a complex process due to the sheer number of possible causes and related symptoms. In order to diagnose stubbornness, we could:

Research the topic
Find a doctor with the time
Use a diagnostic computer system.

The process is the same, whichever method is used.

Step 1: List all Possible Causes

We begin by identifying the disease conditions which have "stubbornness" as a symptom. For example, anorexia/starvation tendency.

Step 2: Build a Symptom Checklist

We then identify all possible symptoms and risk factors of each possible cause, and check the ones that apply:

regularly feeling unusually cold

disturbed sleep

weak appetite

weak sexual desire

strictly controlled emotions

moderate unexplained weight loss

overtraining

unexplained missed periods

being an unsocial person

being easily irritated

very brittle hair

low Metformin use

... and so on

Step 3: Rule Out or Confirm each Possible Cause

A differential diagnosis of your symptoms and risk factors finds the likely cause of stubbornness.

In the Mind Health section of the questionnaire, The Analyst™ will ask the following question about your ability to compromise:

How open are you to other people's points of view?

Possible responses:

→ I am stubborn, often unwilling to compromise
→ Average / don't know
→ I am very open to other points of view

Based on your response to this question, which may indicate either being stubborn or being easily able to compromise, The Analyst™ will consider possibilities such as Anorexia / Starvation Tendency.
