Depression Is A Sign Of An Ego Death

Your depression is not permanent. It is a sign of an ego death. There is more to life. And because you have a desire for that life, it requires the old version of you to transition into your new highest self. Ego death refers to the ego in the psychological sense. According to neurologist and psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, the ego is “that part of the id which has been modified by the direct influence of the external world.” The ego death may not be enjoyable for some but it provides you with objectivity (mindfulness) and grants you a journey full of wisdom to be grateful for.
