Bomb. Why we do not cope with their complexes

How are the children's resentment and irresistible fear of public speaking?

With the help of illustrations to explain where we come from complexes and why we are so difficult to get rid of them.






What is complex?

Put simply, it is a kind of traumatic memories, "frozen" in the personal unconscious and having a powerful emotional charge.

According to Freud, the complex structure is similar to mine. Mine itself is located in the personal unconscious, and her sensitive "antennae" stick in the mind.



It should hurt a mustache like mine explodes.

Moreover, unlike the present mines could explode complex unlimited number of times.

Our systems periodically explode all our lives, making us relive the trauma over and over again.

For example, as a child, performing at the matinee in the garden, you have forgotten the words rhyme about Mishka clumsy, and peers have booed zapozorili, laughed and pelted with rotten apples.

Accordingly, the rest of your life you will not only each of stressed situation speech before a large audience, but even some of the fine details of the original situation, which caused the formation of the complex.

For example, you will become more frequent palpitations and trembling hands at the sight of the balloons, apples and microphone (see. Figure).

Even seeing the same bows, that were on the girl who most loudly neighing at you in kindergarten, you will also be good.



But Freud's scheme did not explain why the complexes are so stable and saved us a lifetime. This could explain Jung, Freud adding circuit.

According to Jung, the reasons for the stability of the complex are:

1. The complex is always based on the archetypal situation.

For example, "I obsmeyali zapomoili and peers at the matinee" - is one of the incarnations of the archetype, which can be called "Expulsion from the team."

The situation of exile from the team - the archetypal, it millions of years, it has happened since the early days of the appearance of man, and it works in animals, including even the most primitive.

The rejection of the collective - the terrible situation in the animal world (and, until recently, in human as well), it almost always ends with the death of exiled individuals.

Therefore, this archetype has a monstrous energy.

Accordingly, for seemingly harmless ridicule "Haha, you have forgotten the poem, you fool!" Gets HUGE dark archetypal ghost "You do not deserve to be a member of our team. You'll be excommunicated from him expelled and deprived of the support of the pack, you will die. "

That is why such seemingly innocent at first glance, the situation causes severe psychological trauma and complexes.

2. Complex periodically expands its sphere of influence at the expense of situations related original situation, which caused complex.

That is, if you, as an adult uncle, spoke at a presentation of his company meeting, and you pointed out your mistakes, then your previous "trigger" kindergarten complex (balloons, bows, microphone, apples) add new triggers - details of the new situation (for example, tie your colleagues who have criticized, and unusual notebook and pen other colleagues, which points to your flaws).

As a result, we have the following picture:



That's why our systems have plagued all his life - they remain stable and active living through endless energy supply from the archetype and, moreover, expanded with new traumatic situations that are related to the original situation that caused the formation of a complex

. That's so easy.
