the ego-gram: an invention

Some would argue that Sigmund Freud invented the ego (and the id, and the superego). At least he described the operation of these elements of id, ego, and super-ego as "the three parts of the "psychic apparatus" defined in his structural model of the psyche; they are the three theoretical constructs in terms of whose activity and interaction mental life is described. According to this model, the uncoordinated instinctual trends are the "id"; the organised realistic part of the psyche is the "ego," and the critical and moralizing function the "super-ego."ur personality, our self. "

An "ego-gram" (my word), like a telegram would be a message from the ego, your ego, my ego. Like Whitman's Song of Myself, it would be a message of "me-ness." Let's try. APS
