Ego or Id

Capt Toss

Do you mean you have a hyper-inflated id? I think Freud described the ego as representing what may be called reason and common sense, in contrast to the id, which contains the passions.

The difference between ego and id is similar to the difference between satire and defamation - the satirist knowing when to control the urge to defame.
