Alter Ego, the self defence mechanism


There is saying in Japanese tradition that we have 3 face. These are as follows: 

1) One we show to the society 
2) One we show to our family 
3) One we show to ourselves
The 3rd category is the real face according to their believes.

 However there is another way the people hide their true personality, as they believe their former one is vulnerable to the society or perhaps to feel better. The " Alter Ego " is the traits. Now this personality can be of anyone and  inherit according to the  favourism. These personality may include of your favorite actor, god, celebrity, superheroes. Now what they do, is that  they change the behavior, actions of the individual.

Who inherit the personality

People fear that  this as psychotic disfunction, but the research shows that this is common in everyday one's life. The fact is we never notice too closely.

Why Necessary ?

People with Alter Ego believe this as a shield or self defence to cover up their true personality. They believe their personality is too weak and fragile to counter other people action, society or audience.
