This simple example shows the human ego independence from other individuals and the public consciousness as a whole. Of course, other’s evaluation is important for us, but it isn’t final. It is no surprise, if one thinks his or her personality low estimation by others is unfair, however, if things are the vice versa, he / she may disagree as well. Praises from people near and far may be insufficient, for example, to make an artist or writer believe in his / her talent. This simple example can lead us to other presumptions. The mechanisms of persuasion may be useful to change the opinion of an interlocutor, but they fail, for example, as a means of a psychological influence on an alcoholic to convince him or her to stop drinking. In both cases we deal with a thing that may be called the human ego protection belt. But in the case of opinion the final recipient is the same narrative ego. When there’s an attempt of a psychological influence the situation may be more difficult, for we can try to impact rationally the whole system of relations between the Ego and the unconscious or the affective cogito, which essence is clear to the human ego only in part. Moreover, assumed the human ego shall bear the load of every up-to-date knowledge about humans, the understanding of our own internal world will never be clear in full. This problem, by the way, became the driving force of psychoanalysis, as an attempt to reach the narrative cogito in a roundabout way. Thus, we don’t solely show ourselves to the world in the way we shape for ourselves, but also through the way we see ourselves. Along with the problem of self-regulation the problem of self-control arises, that is presenting ourselves to the world around us. We play many part offered not only by our lot in life, but also by certain reality situations. Many philosophic swords have been crossed in meditations over the variety of human roles and in searches to find the real human face among the variety of these masks. The meditation over this question takes us away from the topic. Let’s note hereby an unusual application of a theory of social roles to the problem of alcoholism.
