self-discovery.
"An oral fixation (also oral craving) is a fixation in the oral stage of development manifested by an obsession with stimulating the mouth first described by Sigmund Freud, who thought infants are naturally and adaptively in an oral stage, but if weaned too early or too late, may fail to resolve the conflicts of this stage and develop a maladaptive oral fixation. In later life, these people may constantly "hunger" for activities involving the mouth.
Oral Receptive: The Oral receptive personality is preoccupied with eating/drinking and reduces tension through oral activity such as eating, drinking, smoking, biting nails, gnawing on plastic bottles. They are generally passive, needy and sensitive to rejection. They will easily 'swallow' other people's ideas."
