Narcissistic mortification is "the primitive terror of self dissolution, triggered by the sudden exposure of one's sense of a defective self () it is death by embarrassment”.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://internationalpsychoanalysis.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/libbeypaper.pdf )〕 Narcissistic mortification is a term first used by Sigmund Freud in his last book, ''Moses and Monotheism'',〔Sigmund Freud, ''Moses and Monotheism'' (Standard Ed., 23) p. 74 and p. 76〕 with respect to early injuries to the ego/self. The concept has been widely employed in ego psychology and also contributed to the roots of self psychology. When narcissistic mortification is experienced for the first time, it may be defined as a sudden loss of control over external or internal reality, or both. This produces strong emotions of terror while at the same time narcissistic libido (also known as ego-libido) or destrudo is built up.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2FBF01568757#page-1 ) 1957;31(4):657-68.〕 Narcissistic libido or ego-libido is the concentration of libido on the self. Destrudo is the opposite of libido and is the impulse to destroy oneself and everything associated with oneself. ==Early developments: Bergler, Anna Freud, and Eidelberg== Edmund Bergler developed the concept of narcissistic mortification in connection with early fantasies of omnipotence in the developing child, and with the fury provoked by the confrontations with reality that undermine his or her illusions.〔Edmund Bergler, "The Psychology of Gambling", Jon Halliday/Peter Fuller eds., ''The Psychology of Gambling'' (London 1974) p. 182-3〕 For Bergler, “the narcissistic mortification suffered in this very early period continues to act as a stimulus throughout his life”.〔Edmund Bergler, ''The Basic Neurosis'' (1975)〕 Anna Freud used the term in connection with her exploration of the defence mechanism of altruistic surrender, whereby an individual lives only through the lives of others – seeing at the root of such an abrogation of one's own life an early experience of narcissistic mortification at a disappointment with one's self.〔Lisa Appignanesi/John Forrester, ''Freud's Women'' (2004) p. 294〕 Psychoanalyst and author Ludwig Eidelberg subsequently expanded on the concept in the fifties and sixties. Eidelberg defined narcissistic mortification as occurring when “a sudden loss of control over external or internal reality...produces the painful emotional experience of terror”.〔("An introduction to the study of the narcissistic mortification" Psychiatric Quarterly 31 )〕 He also stressed that for many patients simply to have to accept themselves as having neurotic symptoms was itself a source of narcissistic mortification.〔Eidelberg: (The Concept of Narcissistic Mortification ) Int J Psychoanal. 1959 May-Aug;40:163-8.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Narcissistic mortification」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
