Identity Disorder

An identity problem or identity disorder describes a sustained difficulty in defining central aspects of oneself, such as values, goals, orientation, or a sense of belonging, generating confusion and emotional distress.

How can it present? intense and prolonged doubts about who one is, frequent changes of plans or relationships, a feeling of emptiness, and difficulty making decisions that reflect one's own will.

When to ask for support? when this confusion affects studies, work, or personal relationships, or is accompanied by significant distress, it is worth sharing it in a professional setting.

Who accompanies this process? the psychologist and clinical psychology offer support, and the psychoanalyst works from an approach centered on personal history. Talking about it with one of these professionals can help explore these experiences with greater clarity and without judgment.
