The phrase ‘as if’ and the imposter syndrome are characterized by façade, a feeling of fragility, fraudulence and vulnerability bounded by a wall of impenetrability. The person suffers dissociations from life while exuding an appealing yet elusive nature. The psychological journey has been arrested. Those living ‘as-if’ are estranged from their true selves, body and spirit. This personality type, discovered in the psychoanalytic era of the 1940s, has been seldom discussed. In this course, we will use the history of this personality and composite case examples to explore these psychological, personal, and collective struggles as they appear in ourselves and, increasingly, our social media reality.
SUSAN SCHWARTZ, PhD is a Jungian analyst educated in Zurich, Switzerland and a licensed clinical psychologist.
