One objection, now that I've had time to digest this post. Wouldn't it be more accurate, and a better fit to the concepts underlying IM/LoA, to say that it's my false ego that is these above things? Your phrasing comes off as an attack, even if it isn't meant as one (especially via text, a painful lesson I'd learned over years of emailing/PMing/chatroom use).

You do have me pretty well pegged. I can even elaborate:

"I (ego) am an incurable emotional cripple who needs others to take care of him and/or a controlled environment that compensates for my permanent blind spots".

I don't think it's all of me though, as I have accomplished a few things in my life that run counter to that 'program'.
