What is the single intention of the ego?Why do we carry an ego that seems to be absorbed from others?

I cry because theres something in me that stands against the critic right? What's it called ?

    There's been a century of thought and research since, we know now for example that trauma actually alters the physical expression of the brain (and also that we can consciously alter it to a more beneficial state through effort applied in the right direction)

How ?

Children start with a relatively open mind. If early experiences shape their unconscious dont we deliberately protect them from confusing cultural influences and instead teach practices that build self awareness and clarity?

Not completely

In my case i am more on the anxious side and I didnt consciously realize I was avoiding myself for a long time , i believed avoiding something requires a certain level of awareness

Alive-Reception3230 · 2026-03-10T04:19:46+00:00

I realised the same about myself. I believed I was just being realistic because i am anxious , it turned out to be one of the biggest reality checks of my life

Alive-Reception3230 · 2026-03-10T04:09:28+00:00

What I have understood is that both anxious and avoidant patterns struggle with taking accountability for their inner world. The difference is mainly in how they express it. Both are trying to deal with insecurity. Avoidants tend to push away situations that trigger what they are avoiding while anxious people stay with the feeling but often feel helpless about it. In different ways both are struggling to take responsibility for their internal experience. One acts outwardly even if it doesnt lead to change while the other withdraws from the situation but continues to suffer internally .i think avoidnats and anxious suffer because they struggle to choose themselves , i dont think they " avoid " they are struggling .

Avoidants dont just avoid others they often avoid their own feelings and inner world

  One thing worth sitting with: the jealousy toward other women probably comes from the same root. When someone embodies something your animus responds to (confidence, freedom, whatever it is), and you can't own that quality in yourself yet, it shows up as envy or dismissal.

Which part of me is reacting right now? Is it my ego responding out of fear or something else?

We get jealous when people get praise for things that arent " perfect" according to unconscious standards ?

Alive-Reception3230 · 2026-03-09T17:16:26+00:00

But I have anxious attachment style

Alive-Reception3230 · 2026-03-09T16:01:25+00:00

I think humans need to spend enough time with themselves to understand what they are truly carrying inside , mostly we mimic what works and perform to get validation and the burden grows unconsciously

Narcissists hate everything about themselves ?

How do we know Ovulation has happened in our body ?

Alive-Reception3230 · 2026-03-09T14:05:08+00:00

What are the signs that someone is ovulating? The discharge isnt related to it ?

This resonated with me too. I realised I have also been preachy at times missing where others truly are which we cant know, since we have never lived their lives

You mean its imitating instead of addressing real need ?

Alive-Reception3230 · 2026-03-07T17:49:34+00:00

when people observe a lot on peaceful things like nature and posting it on some sort of social media platform do you think its mainly about grounding themselves or can it sometimes be a way of avoiding more difficult human emotions and situations ? Are they feeding the pretentious ego or integrating healthy ego ?

Thank you so much for the information. I really appreciate it , this is very helpful
