Sannah, you indicated in your own post that you knew how i was likely to receive your "probe". IMO your "probing" is not structured and purposeful like a therapist's would be; you like to probe, that's all. It doesn't make you "an enemy" but why probe in this particular place when you already know how it will be taken.

I haven't "done" anything. I opened this thread quoting a particular paragraph from Jung and asking for comments. Not for a discussion on defense mechanisms; not for your comments about me. If you have something to say about the Jung quote, that would be very welcome.
