ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Dialogical self

The dialogical self is like an imaginary friend you have in your head. It's like a little part of you that talks to you and helps you make decisions. It's like having a little coach inside your head that can help you make good choices and think about things differently. It can help you realize when you're making mistakes or feeling down and help you work things out. It can help you see the positives in things and know that you're capable of doing anything you put your mind to.
