I am so glad she mentioned feeling uncomfortable with some of the interpretations that were made. I am very interested in such a comment. All I could say to myself is yes! finally. However, I just love Melanie Klein and her interpretations often rubbed me the wrong way. Still learning.
Bion's concept of ego parts and ego splitting in the person's childhood development is fascinating. It seems to have similarities to Gurdjieff's notion of an original essence being replaced by many egos coming into existence as a result of manifold relationships with others and with life experiences.
