Discounting and ego states

• Discounting can be related to

ego state pathology.

• Discounting may indicate the

presence of contamination.

• That is to say : When I am

discounting, I may be mis –

perceiving reality to fit Parent or

Child script beliefs, which I

mistake for Adult thinking.

Discounting and ego states• Exclusion may be another

source of discounting.

• Here, I am ignoring aspects of

reality because I am blanking

out one or more of my ego

states.

• Excluding Adult is the most

disabling of the three

exclusions in terms of person’s

intensity of discounting.

Discounting and ego states

• Often, discounting can

occur without any ego

state pathology.

• In these cases, it is simply

the result of the person’s

Adult being uninformed or

misinformed.

Discounting and ego states• In terms of the functional

model of ego states, discounting can be straightforwardly expressed.

• Whenever I am coming from any negative ego state part, I am discounting.

• When I stop myself solving a problem, I necessarily have been discounting.
