Psycho

Psychological issues must usually reside in the ego, the referee that decides how to process the incoming info. Either intuitively in the id or with delayed thinking in the super ego.

If the ego is wobbly then so will be your life because you will process stuff in the wrong part of your brain and that will mess up your actions, your beliefs and your feelings

As parents we need to pass onto our kids the training on how to use the ego well. To do this we have to be aware of our shortcomings in this regard which will help us bypass the generational replication of issues.

The mystery is how to identify and solve the problems with our ego using the same organ that it’s housed in?

No wonder it’s hard.

It makes me think that an automatic approach that relies on external response to stimuli (from our actions, feelings and briefs) might be a better way to iron out the bugs in the ego.

I suppose a therapist is a dodgy version of this.
