D-Realm
The D-Realmis a phrase used by Abraham Maslow to refer to a state of motivation characterized by the need to fill deficiencies left by insufficient satisfaction[1] of the Seven Essential Needs. An individual in the d-realm is trying to meet one or more unmet Seven Essential Needs. Individuals in the D-Realm exhibit what Maslow called D-Cognition.

Notes
"The former are more essentially practical, realistic, mundane, capable and secular people, living more in the here-and-now world; i.e., what I have called the D-realm for short, the world i.e., of deficiency-needs and of deficiency-cognitions. In this Weltanschauung, people or things are taken essentially in a practical, concrete, here-now, pragmatic way, as deficiency need suppliers or frustrators as useful or useless, helpful; i.e., or dangerous, personally important or unimportant."
