Yes. A constant battle . The world ouside is very demanding in the self as also on the personality that I am . Whenever there is a discordanr note between the two I am in pain and the self and the "I " both fight for their supremacy.
The problem does not exist when I have to take decision all by myself . here the self and I seem to merge and I am happy.
But often I have to play different roles in my day to day life... father ,,husband , friend , boss .... . I am forced , many times , to shelve my "self" and act as "I " . This does not allow me to have a sound sleep. I take time to get over the internal disturbance.

I am at war with the forces of good and evil, my mind often overrun by the dark horses of apocalyptic terror. Example, this morning I awoke, walked into the kitchen and poured a cup of coffee and there on the counter was a plate of chocolate chip cookies. At once my mind was caught up in the conflict, should I have one?? "NO, NO, eat them all". After a short skirmish, the battle was over and the plate was bare.

After the incident with the power drill, the inner voices have stopped.

"Know thyself." To anyone who knows the "True Inner Self," the battle is over.

As I've aged, those 'battles' have become much less frequent. They are, now, merely unpleasant memories!

No, I enjoy a harmonic balace of the two. Needs and desires are the same for me.

Yes, I am constantly wanting to better things for myself and make good things happen when in reality, it isn't that easy. It is completely normal.
