Admitting a variety of psychological conditioning of making use of pastime, attention must be drawn to inability of making use of free time. There are people who, while objectively having free time, are not able to experience this feeling. It refers to neurotic individuals. The paper is an attempt to analyze these mechanisms in the neurotic personality which are responsible for inability to make use of pastime or even lack of the feeling of having free time. Neither active planning of free time nor a passive awareness if its experiencing are involved. The above mentioned mechanisms are: a neurotic person’s perfectionism, specific attitude towards one’s freedom and neurotic feeling of guilt. Neurotic feeling of guilt is presented as the most destructive mechanism, closely related to perfectionism and the attitude towards the neurotic’s own freedom. The inner mechanisms of a neurotic individual prevent them from realization of the functions of free time which may be regarded as main and essential: from the regenerative function, through compensative and suspensive, to the creative function. The paper is an attempt to interpret the inner mechanisms of a neurotic individual, mainly within the framework of analytical psychology, as the causes of being unable to realize the particular functions of pastime. The analysis of a neurotic person’s inner mechanisms has been conducted with reference to the latter’s symptoms as well as origins, especially regarding the neurotic feeling of guilt.
