Aha!

Finally ! Found a box to put myself in. A big thanks to whoever enlightened me with the term. A logical explanation for all the kiddish outbursts, sudden change of moods, impulsive choices, abnormal energy levels at strange hours and forgetfulness. No! its not Bipolar  :) ....Apparently its  a condition called Dominant Child Ego...

Did you guys know that similar to hormonal imbalance,  Ego imbalance dictates our everyday behaviour ? I had no clue ego can be classified but research (as always) suggests that all of us have an adult ego, a parent ego and a child ego. As names suggest Parent ego is the controlling and nurturing side of us which develops over the years. Adult ego is the sensible & logical side which we are born with. Child ego is the playful, self centered   & unpredictable side of people . Its a state in which peoples reactions are transparent to their feelings . In our daily interactions different people feed on different parts of our ego - hence the inconsistency in people. Interesting pop psychology! So its not really my fault if I am being irrational? I am liking this train of thought already...

Since we on the topic of ego and pop psychology heres a conversation tip that might work . A polite way to call someone egoistic is telling them that they are more in touch with their inner child :)
