still working this out but i’ve recently been reflecting about the role of fantasy in my life. obviously spurred on by strong identification with the schizoid experiences i read about.
Disorders of the Self: New Therapeutic Horizons. The Masterson Approach.
Ralph Klein, The Self-in-Exile, pg 64

Fantasy
In the life of the schizoid patient, fantasy is extraordinarily important and has a variety of functions. Most often, fantasy is viewed as a component of a person's withdrawal from the world, a turning inward and away from oth-ers. Viewed in this fashion, fantasy would be a core component of the self-in-exile. But it is far more complicated than that. Fantasy is relationship by proxy. It is a substitute relationship, but it is a relationship nonetheless. It is, for the schizoid patient, an ideal, defensive, compensatory relation-ship. It is an expression of the self-in-exile because it is self-contained and free from the dangers and anxieties associated with appropriation. It is also an expression of the self struggling to connect to objects, albeit internal ob-jects. Fantasy permits schizoid patients to feel connected, and yet still free from the imprisonment of the master/slave unit. In short, in fantasy one can be attached (to internal objects) and still be free.

i very much adore how much earnest-posting has been going on lately in my social circle. i love being surrounded by expressions of affection

my high school girlfriend's mom was so fucking cool. immigrated from the philippines, her (generally already absent) husband got deported for fraud and she raised her three kids by herself and put them through college working multiple jobs. she was unbelievably kind, warm-hearted, and soft spoken.
