Winnicott distinguishes between what he calls the 'true self', which is capable of mature relationship with others and
arises from an unconditional loving environment, and the 'false self', which is defensive and arises when our early
relationships are not unconditionally loving. (Tony Humphries)
This defensive armour locks the wearer in, preventing
her from connecting with others, and ultimately with herself.
Fortunately, in the right suppportive environment,
the wearer may in time feel safe enough to let it fall away.
