Moloch: The Demon Symbol of Self-Criticism and Self-Destruction
By Scott Nodwell · The Depth Current
Abstract
An archetypal analysis of the Moloch figure as a symbol for the internal destructive forces of self-criticism, perfectionism, and self-sacrifice. Bridges mythology with clinical practice.
“The first clinical literature I read that genuinely captured my experience as a late-diagnosed adult. Rigorous and compassionate in equal measure.”
