A fragmented reality.
How fragmented is your reality?
What does fragmented mean in psychology?
When a person experiences severe trauma, their identity, including personality and emotions, goes through a process of fragmentation. This is when the body divides traits and feelings, and groups them into smaller sections, keeping some of them hidden until a safe space for expression is provided.
So how much do you really know about yourself? - A strange concept - that you might not actually know yourself.
As we all get older it occurs to me that we may not be able to trust our own memories. A very worrying thought.
