#JungianPsychology #Psychology #CarlJung There is a version of you for family dinners. Another for work. Another for old friends. Another for strangers. Each one slightly adjusted. Slightly safer than the last. You have done this so long it barely registers anymore. Carl Jung noticed something unsettling about people who master this skill. The better you become at adjusting for every room, the less anyone in any room actually knows you. Including, eventually, you. Especially you. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CHAPTERS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 0:00 The version of you nobody actually knows 1:20 Why you feel exhausted after every gathering 2:40 What Carl Jung called the persona 4:00 Why the mask stops feeling like a mask 5:30 The three signs you have been performing too long 7:00 Why the people closest to you know you the least 8:30 The shadow — what gets buried when the mask runs long enough 10:00 The moment the cage closes 11:30 Why people resent you for changing 13:00 What individuation actually looks like 15:00 The question that cannot be ignored 16:30 What exists underneath the performance ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ RESEARCH ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ — Carl Jung — the persona and the shadow — Jungian individuation theory — The psychology of social performance and identity suppression ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ↳ Like — helps this reach the people who need it ↳ Subscribe — psychology every single week ↳ Notifications on — never miss a drop Not medical or psychological advice.
