#internalized

• The state of being abandoned — A psychoanalytic and clinical concept designating the totality of internal feelings, affective complexes, and structural personality changes installed in an individual as a direct consequence of early desertion. It refers not merely to the external act, but to the internal psychic reality internalized by the patient, defined by a constant vulnerability to rejection.
• Internalized — Having been transformed through conscious assumption or internalization; a status, concept, or trait that has acquired the character of being fully and deliberately embraced. The term describes the state of an abstract element that is no longer merely imposed from the outside, but deeply internalized and manifested with absolute certainty.
