By oe16erinlasher
  • Period: to

    My Lifetime

    So Far

  • Trust versus Mistrust

    As an infant I had stranger anxiety and would not let people other than my mother, father, and brothers hold me. I over came this fear and learned to trust people.

  • Autonomy versus Shame and Doubt

    I had to learn to do things on my own. This consisted of going to knock on poples doors and say trick or treat by my self and not have my mom or brother do it for me. Also being able to order my own food at restruants.

  • Initiative versus Guilt

    In this stage I learned to get along with other kids and if I didn't I would end up confessing what I had done.

  • Copetence versus Inferioity

    I did not master the ability make friends in school, thus making it still hard for me to socialize with people and make friends as I get older.

  • Identity versus Role Confusion

    I have alwys known who I was and I was never one to follow what the crowd was doing, and always had my own style.

  • Intimacy versus Isolation

    I have not yet come to this but I hope in the future I will be able to share every part of my being with another and be accepted for who I am.
  • Period: to

    Young Adult to Old age

  • Generativity versus Stagnation

    I have not yet come to this stage but I hope that if I do I will be productive in the community.

  • Ego intergrity versus Despair

    I have not yet come to this stage but I do not fear death now and I hope I will not fear death in the future and I will not compromise my life.
