This post “Increase your self-esteem by understanding the primitive defense mechanism <\/em>omnipotent control<\/em>“<\/em> continues with how you can increase your self-esteem by getting to know and manage your thoughts and feelings.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Omnipotent control is a primary defense mechanism. It is about feeling invincible and having supernatural powers. It is also about feeling like one is having unlimited\u00a0authority or influence over the surroundings.<\/p>\n Children have an omnipotent development phase when they feel they are superheroes with magical powers. This can remain a desire even for adults. Omnipotent control is a central dimension in some personality disorders such as narcissism and borderline.<\/p>\n It is also present to some extent when having obsessive thoughts as in magical thinking that specific rituals can influence unrelated situations.<\/p>\n Omnipotent control can also be about the primitive fantasy that the source of everything that happens is oneself \u2013 like being God or the chosen one in Psychosis.<\/p>\n It is thought to be based on not being able to recognize the separate existence of others and that others can have a will different from one’s own.<\/p>\n However, omnipotent control is also a sound and critical dimension of self-esteem with the important difference that here one accepts that others also can have omnipotent control \u2013 that we all are special and unique.<\/p>\n More about how you can increase your self-esteem in the next post.
