Dear Jack:

I need time to study your two comments here and will come back and respond thoroughly.

Dear Inky:

Thank you for the You-are-Great comment. That is kind of you! And yes, I would very much like to change the script of my mind. I need time to study your response as well and will come back to it with as thorough an examination as I am capable of. What jumps at me right this moment is numbers 2, 3, 4, 5- the Superego I am aware of, is the psychic entity coined by Freud whose job is to fit in the group and that superego in my case (and in many others’ unfortunately) overgrown its social effectiveness into a destructive force. Your number 5 is giving me a stronger sense of its job, of why it is there, the consequence of not fitting into a group being death.

Can you elaborate more on #5, examples?
