It also doesn’t help that society or family or environment often tells you what desires are desirable. And if you are a good boy or good girl, you will adopt those desires as your own.

And you will do it using your self 1.

Occasionally the self 2 also adopts those desires as its own but it’s not truly organic. what happens is that society or even your own self 1 manages to word those external desires in a way that aligns with the self 2 desires.

However what really drives self 2 are those desires that self 2 does not have words for. The words of these external desires serve as a surrogate to express the true desires.
