The concept we have of ourselves is changing while we live:

During childhood

We discovered that we are different from others and that there are people who accept us and others that we reject. From these early experiences, we began to set definitions about who we are and how we feel in this regard. The future depends on the attitude that showed others to our features when we were children.

During adolescence

We need to form a firm identity and learn about our chances, but we need also of social support which helps us to make ourselves valuable to move forward with confidence into the future. It is a time of crisis of personality where we seek independence and at the same time depend on the opinions of others.

At maturity
