@@AnaPsychology we are on this journey with you, you're learning, you're teaching and we're here learning lots from you and learning about ourselves. Thank you 🥰
My shadow is self-centred and inconsiderate. I can't stand sloppiness or bad manners. I tend to keep criticism to myself, but inside, I often feel very alienated and exhausted after a day of dealing with an imperfect world. I think I have a lot of shadow work to do.
i really hated my brother before. he is a grandiose narcissist. later i found out i hated him coz im "nearly" a covert one. we had a tough childhood. i traced everything back as inner child healing and i felt compassion for him. even all the hurt he inflicted on my family i started to understand myself by understanding him. only then i started to accept myself and my shadows when i start forgiving him.
The way I look at it, everyone's actions were logical to themselves in that moment. We can have different base assumptions, different life experiences, and thus different emotional reactions to a situation. Dismissing someone else as irrational for coming to a conclusion/action that you disagree with isn't looking into why they came to that conclusion/ action. We all have different epistemologies for different topics along with different biases and logical fallacies that we pick up. Taking the time to understand why others come to different answers might help us learn more about how we came to ours. I've enjoyed learning from many perspectives and studying my own decisions much more closely.
I’ve never been this early. Definitely a topic I’ve been thinking about. When I hear people talk about things I don’t completely agree with I just let them express it and not judge them. People are going to do what they’re going to do. All I can really control is myself and if someone sees something in me, it’s them allowing themselves to see it without forcing my views. Now I just lead by example of what I believe in.
... I LOVE YOU 😭✋ this is exactly what I do too and you just explained it perfectly. The world needs to hear this and understand it too! I stan you love 😭🙇♀️ Edit: "leading by example" that's a very lovely way to view it, I previously never saw it that way but that's actually really positive and very much true.
Timely as always, Ana. The topic of self-righteousness and how to "fix" it has been heavy on my mind these past few weeks. Very much appreciate what you do.
I highly appreciate your Jungian content. You gave real examples, realistic scenarios with dialogues, but I hope there's more such content. If possible, on Jungian's personality theory. But otherwise, keep up the good work. Already subscribed.
It was a pleasure to listen to you talk on this topic. It never ever gets boring to hear truth repeated and articulated with clarity and I often need reminding.
This video was a great and deep one tbh, Thank you Ana for always being awesome teaching helpful things and giving good advices You are a very good psychologist❤️
I admire so so much how deep is your knowledge on every matter you talk about, and how friendly and approachable you make it look like. Really, honestly, your videos have helped me understand myself in many different ways. Thank u ♥️
Ana I love your content. I just want to say thank you for all the information you provide for us and the fact that you’re a woman makes it so much better. You’ve helped me become a better person in a world where that goal is mostly sold to men. It’s hard finding good, beneficial and informative material aimed at women and how we can be better. It seems as if everything is meant for men such as Nietzsche’s path to ubermensh and works of fiction that characterize the Hero’s journey as a man’s journey to manhood. I believe in the betterment of women so thank you for the material you provide, you inspire me.❤
I really liked the examples you gave at the end as well. I really think the internet and social media accentuates this desire within us to feel indignant. To be indignant is deeply gratifying and satisfying and I even catch myself fantasying scenarios wherein in I can justly feel indignation and then demonstrate my moral superiority to others. And I’m like why. Why be hostile when relationships are so much more meaningful. Compassion is so much more useful and honest. I really think the triumph of compassion are the greatest stories that can be told. It always makes me cry
YOOOO, thank you so much for talking about shadow work. I haven't been able to find anyone I like who talks about this topic, and here you are. Thank you so much!!! 😭🙇♀️💞
omg this literally came at the exact right time!! just as i started looking into jung's shadow concept and all, you uploaded a video about it!! synchronicities are craaaaaaaaaaaaazy
As a grad student in the counseling field, I appreciate your clarification that Jungian theory is not a justification for inaction - a stance certain dishonest psychologists have made, which it sounds like we’ve both heard lol. To add to your video, I’d say that adopting a utilitarian outlook on life is another great solution to balancing both selves (I.e. the philosophy that whichever action results in the most good for the most people is the just action in a given situation). While Jungian psychology is right to emphasize compassion and self-improvement, radical action can still be justified in situations where human suffering cannot otherwise be alleviated.
There's has been discourse about the stan Ford prison experiment. How the original author doesn't want to replicate the result, and there was so many variables.
Just found your channel and I'm enjoying it a lot. I'm a psychology student, but even if I wasn't, it's quite comfortable to watch and follow. Thanks for your work!
I have found it helpful to see how i wanted to be raised and reparenting my inner child in that way. For example, i was left alone to clean my room without learning how to embody a good example. When I'd ask for help, it presented as being told this goes here this goes here, rather than this is how you decide what goes where; and it corresponds more to her frustrated inexperience, being a young mother, than to me being a burden for pleading for help. Being raised felt like being raised by a broken record, and that i was inherently incapable, which was unfortunately reinforced into adult life. It sucks, but it has very much contributed to a "failure to launch" feeling. I digress, i had to affirm to myself, "you can do this, i know it seems like a lot, but take it one step at a time, and you will find a rhythm that will get it done". Be there for yourself! Happy integration
I have trouble with the shadow explanation for strong negative views of events and people. We are taught what is wrong, that is enough for a negative reaction to the wrong. We don't need personal experience with the wrong. As some insurance for the survival of this comment- May I say, that your hair is looking particularly beautiful. 😅 And TY for a very interesting video.
so our shadow is what we shun about ourselves for sake of morality/ what we push deep down in our subconscious because we want to be seen as a perfect person. and we can see what it is we are repressing through dreams, journaling, meditating etc. and to integrate our shadow. we must lend a hand of compassion towards the event that upset us because we have done it too or have the capability of doing it too. and in that compassion, we can begin to give it towards ourselves when our shadow appears.
i will rewatch this and take notes because sometimes i need to visualize and find a synonym for it in a symbolic way. like the most i think of is lucifer? aka bringer of light. lucifer is seen as evil. etc what not. except all lucifer wanted was to be powerful like god. lucifer was not happy with who he was or what he had because he did not see god within himself... god is not perfect he makes judgements and is rageful , yet at the same time shows empathy and understanding. and lucifer would be if someone is just drenched in their shadow? if they never saw the positives or negatives. hmmaidwamd IDK IM just thinking because i look at lucifer and all that as fiction as something about psychology and how humans work. like. i shun and hide a lot of my sexuality or lust because i was taught lust is a sin, but theres this deep shadow part of me that just wants to be please myself and my body and give myself a really good time but im afraid of looking like a whore or whateever.. so there is part of me juding myself like this beca sometimes it makes me think that every human is like lucifer.. m..... idk just thinking on text right now
hey ana thank you so much for your content, you’ve helped a lot! can you talk about attachment styles in one of your future videos and how to cope with them?
Hi Ana! I realised that there is so little information about over-sexualisation from man in heterosexual relationships. A lot of people talking about over-sexualising women in general but not specifically in long term relationships. I think is related to your investigation project and maybe is an idea for a video. Have a great day!
5:50 The Stanford experiment was kind of ill-conducted. And college students aren't really stable people. Doin that same experiment with real adults would have probably been very different.
I have never heard of vice signalling before today! Now I know what it is, as well as virtue signalling and enlightened centrism…I can say I’m guilty of all of them. That’s probably being human and I think we all have done it. I think we usually start of virtue signalling, then vice signalling is the next stage. Some people go into enlightened centrism but not all. It’s usually after being committed to one side or the other, then being burned in some way maybe? I went through a massive enlightened centrist phase bit too long ago. But yes all of them are to do with ego. And trying to manage your ego is lifelong. It can definitely read it’s head, even if you think you have it under control. It’s also a coping mechanism to use these signals. When you’re feeling bad about yourself either consciously or subconsciously. I still feel myself virtue signalling sometimes but that’s ego.
Thank you so much for mentioning the 'I'm an empath/you're a narcissist' thing.. I've been seeing it everywhere lately and something about 'empath' as an identity bothers me. Would you consider saying more about the psychology behind it? Edit: was that self-righteous? 😄 oh no..
5:13 That’s not accurate, there’s the 4th type which is the live and let live kind that’s focus on understanding and compassion for all the sides and has done the inner work to integrate and re-contextualized their shadow. Which is kinda what you’re talking about you’re talking about the 4th type. I don’t subscribe to this idea that a lot of therapists seem to have that no matter how much inner work you do you will forever be stuck with these shadow energies. That’s the whole point of individuating and integration the transcendence of this shadow behaviors and beliefs. Yes they might be a very small percentage of the population but they do exist.
have you read the story of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson? it's a horror story about this. the divide between that "good person" and the "shadow self". I love it
It's wrong to categorize people in one group (good or bad), but I believe that relativism is really harmful. It leads to indifference. If truth is relative, how do you fight for what's right? With a relativistic view "right" is always changing. There is absolute truth. the intrinsic value of a human being, for example. Or that murder is wrong. Or that self-rightousness is wrong. How can we know we are self-rightous without knowing what is absolutely rightous?
You often have to have the humility of knowing what it was actually like when you were one way and thought you were doing what was right, and then see the truth in a coming to Jesus moment and find out how deceived and mislead you really were to be in that position.
WAIT. i have a big huge question if people could please express their opinions or ideas or answers. where does the shadow come from? (i know i can look it up id like to hear this comment sections answers or op answer)
This is so good. It sounds a lot like the Christian idea: "No one is perfect" as well as the Christian idea that every person has intrinsic worth because God made them.
It must be almost impossible to escape the power of our shadows. I think a person can only do that through total self abnegation, and it is still hard to escape even then, because that self abnegation tends to paralyze a person. I guess it is better not to do the wrong thing than it is to do nothing.
Accepting and acknowledging our imperfections is the best way to go. This way, when we know what our weaknesses are, we can have a better chance to avoid doing the wrong thing that we are prone to doing. That is a humble mindset. Completely rejecting ourselves in any way is a more haughty mindset, which is toxic and hurtful to ourselves and basically guarantees that we will do the wrong thing much more often.
Hi Ana, irrelevant but can you make a video about extreme inferiority complex, especially the type that gets worse around people you deem as superior to you but is generally there most of the time, constantly whispers to you that you're a loser and you will never be able to mingle with other people. And most of the time, it is accompanied by superiority complex, like you say to yourself everyone is so dumb, narcissistic, they don't deserve your time after all etc. I'd really appreciate if you can share your thoughts/recommendations on this topic. I need your advice because your videos feel completely genuine.
Started laughing?? If you understood why you laughed? May be im triggered because you laughed at his inadequacy. That means i hate it when people laugh when i am inadequate???
Sounds like bs tbh. Who the hell sees a dream where they behave so unusual that they wake up and think, oh wow it's time to learn about my inner shadow self which is opposite to what i think about myself.
I feel so ashamed. Today at work was awful. I was taken to my supervisor's office with her and a high-ranking chef. They (or mostly the chef) told me that I've been touching my coworkers too much. Not _THAT_ type of touch, of course not! Just casual ones, like on arms or shoulders. I was always very outgoing at work. When I asked her if anyone reported a complaint, she said it didn't matter. She told me that we need the workers to be comfortable in a good work environment, and that I pretty much shouldn't talk about anything other than work and school (I work at a university's catering service). She told me I shouldn't tell my stories because they may be inappropriate to my coworkers. Now yeah, I pretty much don't have a filter, and sometimes I guess I do say inappropriate stuff at work, but not _horribly_ nor intentionally. I like to joke around and have fun with my coworkers, but I guess it isn't like that after all (more or less). I really didn't get specific information from the chef about what and who. She understands and likes that I'm outgoing, but she made it sound risky and in need of limits, for good behavior and my coworkers' sake. And again, that I shouldn't touch my coworkers (shoulders or arms) without their consent. But seriously, I'm not a creep! I don't randomly hug people or anything like that. I didn't mean to be so "handsy" (I say loosely). I'm so embarrassed about the office lecture. I am not like Biden at all. I'm really not. Have I really gone that far at work? I already hate being on the spectrum, and sometimes I actually hate myself. I wish I could work somewhere, not only for my coworkers' sake (should that presumption be true) and myself, because I'm so ashamed.
@@avril4259 well no, to be honest. I’m still ashamed. I won’t be all right until I do something so good to change the impression of my boss, the chef, and whoever reported me. Unless I save their lives, I’m not close to forgiving myself, especially since it went to the _office_
Interesting-I incorporate astrology and psychology in my work all the time and people look at me cross-eyed or back away slowly! But astrology is based in psychology and vice versa! Interesting to find another who is incorporating these concepts…
The best part about this channel is the transition from "Doctorate Candidate", to "Doctorate Student" and now "Doctorate Intern". Great work, Ana!
It was actually student > candidate > intern :) thank you so much! The fact that you noticed these little achievements is much appreciated.

Can we stop misdiagnosing others with narcissism

me: moral superiority is bad
also me: feels morally superior to other people because they think they're morally superior and are thus unenlightened
For me, its more like feeling less obnoxious than the people who think they're morally superior

And again, that I shouldn't touch my coworkers (shoulders or arms) without their consent. But seriously, I'm not a creep! I don't randomly hug people or anything like that. I didn't mean to be so "handsy" (I say loosely). I'm so embarrassed about the office lecture. I am not like Biden at all. I'm really not. Have I really gone that far at work? I already hate being on the spectrum, and sometimes I actually hate myself. I wish I could work somewhere, not only for my coworkers' sake (should that presumption be true) and myself, because I'm so ashamed.
Hey hi I know it's been a while since you commented this but dude, are you alright?
@@avril4259 well no, to be honest. I’m still ashamed. I won’t be all right until I do something so good to change the impression of my boss, the chef, and whoever reported me. Unless I save their lives, I’m not close to forgiving myself, especially since it went to the _office_
Interesting-I incorporate astrology and psychology in my work all the time and people look at me cross-eyed or back away slowly! But astrology is based in psychology and vice versa! Interesting to find another who is incorporating these concepts…
I wouldn't. Seen as too flaky by many.
