The picture I chose was with my girlfriend and this describes psychoanalysis because there are three parts of psychoanalysis. There is it, ego, and superego. The difference between them is one is who we are (only we know who we are), what you show people and moral standings. The reason I chose this is that I use to hide a lot about what gender I found interesting. I would hide behind who I really was by creating this image that I knew others would like. I would try to fit in with the crowd in my 8th-grade year to my sophomore year. I would make bad choices with friends and not listen to those around me if it was something about fixing myself. While deep down I knew I just wanted people to like me and have tons of friends but as I grew older I realized that who I really was is better than all the egos I had. I would go off the saying my mother used to say to me as a child and it was to not be a follower. She always told me to follow my own path and to be who I really am because my family is going to love me no matter what I decide to do. She knew I was making bad choices and she had faith that I would find my way back to who I was. By my junior year, I fixed myself and started to get back on the path. Then I was not hiding behind any mask and I began to act like myself and I realized more people appreciated that. I still had some moments where I would go back to my old habits but then I met my girlfriend who really helped me to not be afraid of who I am. I was a little scared at first because I never shared this part of my life with anyone until I met her and then I was scared of what others might think about my preferences. Now, I do not care because I am happy and that is all that matters. I am just glad I chose to express myself towards my senior year and not hide behind a mask. I chose this picture because it expresses the real me and I am proud of that.
