What is Positive Disintegration? (how do you cope with it, and what is an authentic personality?)

Описание: What can be positive about disintegration? An exploration of Dabrowski's theory of Positive Disintegration, including a retelling using Neo from the Matrix, and why Positive Disintegration is contrary to most popular practices in psychology today. I've also included some hacks for dealing with the fall out of this painful, but very rewarding personality-shaping process.

Dabrowski’s theory of positive disintegration is a psychology framework for understanding intense experiences that often look and feel like mental illness, but which can also be viewed as building blocks for creating an authentic personality. This theory also talked about OE in gifted and creative people as 'developmental potential', and proposes that the intense and sensitive people may have a different view of the world, and an accelerated pathway through crisis to a more authentic self.

If you're exploring better ways to manage your mental health, a gifted or creative person who feels the world intensely, or going through a crisis (dark night of the soul), this channel might be for you!
