I thought I was rather careful to explain that. A function of the degree of damage, the state or health of ego armor, the degree of challenge the ego is subjected to in the present. The feeling that is repressed is always the same, that each of us believes we and we alone is the worst person in the world.
When you were young you had not a single ego defense so the pain you could feel had only one limit, all the pain a human can possibly feel. No child can survive constant exposure to that. We had to die psychically.
All the bullshit of the devil breaking seals to enter this world are just archetypes of those moments becoming conscious again. It fear of that happening is called insanity. The Heroes Journey and the legends of myth are all about the journey into the unconscious to retrieve the lover or the Golden Fleece etc. In every time and place there are some who awaken. Look at the Medusa too terrible to behold, with its many projections as hideous heads, defeated only be a sword and the mirror of self reflection.
Simple question: do you think there are any biological predispositions which incline people toward certain behavior? I mean complex social behavior, not eating, sleeping and crapping.
