Brad Thompson’s psyche follows an introverted flow. He knows himself and attempts to develop his inner resources to their maximum potential.

Brad Thompson is a social being oriented toward other people, whose personal interests often mingle with those of his associates or those of the group to which he belongs. Brad is motivated by a need to work in common with other people and to share life’s pleasures and pain. His commitments to other people are of paramount importance to his personal development. This dependence may present difficulties with individual self-assertion and make it hard for Brad to make decisions alone. If Brad wants to achieve inner equilibrium, he must behave in such a way that his actions yield benefits to others as well as himself.

Brad Thompson is attracted to interpersonal activities, but his significant need for inner security may stand in the way of his overtures to others. Since he is highly receptive to other people’s inner natures, he seeks tight bonds with others. He unconsciously needs their psychological support in his quest for himself. Were he to evaluate his psychological development, he would place more value upon human warmth, intimacy, and the need to share than on intellectual understanding or personal freedom of expression.

Brad Thompson has a tendency to identify with others. He forms friendships easily and naturally and enjoys participating in other people’s lives. Sociable, he enjoys being seen and appreciates popularity and recognition. Solitude bores him. His life and personal relations are in sync with his friendships and outer events. Most often, he shares the opinion of others.

A struggle between two fundamentally opposite psychological tendencies is the salient feature of your psyche. However, mental skills and an ability to adapt to the reality principle predominate, though they are subject to impulses from dynamic and emotional principles. Intuition and practicality make a harmonious combination, yielding unusually clear insights into reality and its limitations. The resulting behavior patterns are efficient and practical. However, you may be a bit cautious and skeptical; your unwillingness to take risks may hold you back from gainful experiences, and you are only rarely eager to accept a challenge. Additionally, since your deepest emotions and feelings remain a mystery to you, your vision of the world is sometimes too rigid.

Brad Thompson struggles to understand other people’s feelings. He finds the emotional world to be a foreign terrain, fraught with hidden dangers. Becoming familiar with it would present more drawbacks than advantages. As a result, he may appear to be hard or aloof. He might struggle to establish a rewarding relationship, as he seeks special individuals to bond with. If he were able to accept and understand his own emotions, he would have an easier time grappling with other people’s feelings. Brad has a strong desire for emotional independence, and might have trouble seeing other people’s emotional needs. He might even be the first to deny that such needs are real. As a result, his dependency on others is unconscious. Because it is seen as such a threat, it is repressed. Actually, although he offers conscious resistance to anyone who tries to lure him out of his emotional bubble, he is always making timid, half-conscious forays into the world of feelings, because his loneliness and fear are so unbearable.
