Omnipotent Fantasies and the Vulnerable Self
Ellman, Carolyn S, Ph.d
This study looks at fantasies of omnipotence, and how they grow out of feelings of helplessness. It addresses various aspects, from the merger fantasies of babies who feel like an extension of their parent, to the soothing spiritual and religious feelings that ease acceptance of loss and mortality.
