Years ago I read about the concept of “reverse shadow”, I think, in Jungian psychology. While most people put their selfish, destruction impulses in their unconsciousness, people with a reverse shadow do the opposite.

Could that be your situation, Shay? (And I hope you don’t mind if I shorten your name. You can call me “here” if you like.) Caring, prosocial impulses could conflict with antisocial ones, causing anxiety, hence they are “banished”.
