Just thought I'd share with the group my own experience with idealization in a clinical setting. I find that when I am geting personally uncomfortable with being "put on a pedestal" or being viewed as infallible by my clients, that gut feeling is a good diagnostic indicator that clinical idealization is occuring.
So I guess I am one who can feel, maybe not pressure, but rather perhaps cognitive dissonance with being the object of idealization.
Just my 3 cents...(inflation, you know)
