SIMPLY:

I feel worthless.

That's what gives you angst.

What do you think would give you worth?

a reply to: Agleaya

Directness

Thank you for that. I am always honest Agleaya. It's all I can be. I can't lie about anything.

It can be difficult sometimes as I have to consider others'feelings.

a reply to: midicon

I guess I have a similar responsibility...

a reply to: Agleaya

It's scary because I don't know what the consequences of acting differently could be...

a reply to: Agleaya

I don't know, sadness.

Self deceiving deceiver.

I have been called brutal in the past and yet I am very kind.

a reply to: midicon

Don't worry, my teachers hated me.

a reply to: Agleaya

For just being HONEST...

a reply to: midicon

It's very difficult.

"Confrontation with the self

Contact with the self occurs at the end of the individuation process. The individual becomes sensitive to the symbolism of the self - symbols reflecting the unity of opposites[10]. Characteristic signals of approaching confrontation with the self are images resembling mandalas, increased sensitivity to universal religious symbols, and intensifying experiences of the individual image of God (also as a result of the possibility of identifying the self with God) [11].

Applying this to an exemplary Christian, the image of Christ can become a symbol of the self.[12]

Gautama Buddha was also an incarnation of the self for Jung[13].

Too close a connection between the ego and the self is unhealthy for the psyche. Then ego inflation[14] (mental inflation) manifests itself in impressions of omnipotence, omniscience and indestructibility[15]. What is desirable, however, is the realization of the self, which brings man the revelation of the nature of the Absolute[16]."

I started to see mandalas and became more sensitive to details recently.
