Have you noticed that some people tend to take offense at the same things more often than others? For a touchy person, someone's unkind glance in his direction can become a serious reason to pout. Others, on the contrary, are imperturbable, it would seem, under any circumstances. What type do you consider yourself to be, how vulnerable are you?

Desire to understand yourself and a little time

Step 1
To answer this question, you need a desire to understand yourself. and since it is not easy, it will take some time for it. In order to be able to test ourselves for vulnerability, we will give you a little hint - understand the concept of "complex".
Psychoanalysts, who first spoke about this concept, argue that the complex is an energetically charged place in the human psyche, falling into which is quite painful for the personality. Complexes are always associated with significant events and things, and there are individual and universal. Are there significant things and events in your life? We believe so. So your vulnerability is directly proportional to the number of such things. Concentrate, write them down, count them.
Step 2
But there are also universal complexes - strings common to all, touching which, you can cause a strong emotional resonance. They are divided into three groups:
- Personality complex. Here we are talking about those things that a person names in the first place, presenting himself. This can be social status, nationality, car, etc. As a rule, for women, the most significant and painful of the complex of a person is their own appearance, and for men - the level of income and potency.
- Professional complex - will raise doubts about the level of your education.
- Parental complex - when the reputation of your parents and children is jeopardized.
It is clear here even without checking and calculating - everyone has them, which means that you are vulnerable on at least three points.
Step 3
The things listed above indicate that you have a vulnerability and affect it. This is normal in principle. But to reduce vulnerability, you can learn to respond constructively to a situation or a harmful offender, thereby strengthening your rear.
