Introjects are amalgams of representations of external object, affects, memories, and cognitions combined with a representation of the self.
Creating internal objects is a primitive way to reduce anxiety (anxiolytic). The narcissist creates anxiety and triggers introjection in his victims.
Early childhood introjects are confused with the authentic self. Later life introjects are not.
Most introjects are aggressive and sadistic. Narcissist’s introject is no exception.
Introjects are not the small people in the TV (photoshopping).
The voices are not merely recordings of the originals replayed.
Introjects are created instantly (snapshotting) and are not a function of the length of exposure to the originals but of their significance and function (e.g. infant-mother, narcissist-others).
We are born with capacity to introject but with no introjects.
Empathy is a form of introjection-identification. But, it is instinctual and, therefore, a threat to the ego and split it off.
