Thomasin, I wonder if the reason that you feel that for you the social needs are less important than the self-actualization is because your social needs are already being met? In other words, you feel like you need more “me” time because you already ARE getting enough socialization and you have people who care about you. If you didn’t have that at all, if you didn’t have anyone who cared if you lived or died, and could choose “there are people who love me” or “time alone to do a crossword puzzle” or whatever, I think most people would want to have some human connection.

Or maybe not!

Interesting! (Found my way here via PhD in Parenting). I may have to think more about this and blog it a bit. (Personally, I think that I would switch the Social Needs & the Self-Actualization levels–I need “my time” far more than I need time with other adults. Or, possibly, even my husband!).

Do you want me to dig out my mother's Intro Psych notes? Maslow was her instructor. I swear. True. ParentopiaDevra’s last blog post..The Jon & Kate Effect

First of all, I'm just loving this site. I can't believe how often I find myself nodding with recognition when I read the posts. This pyramid is interesting to me. I definitely think that the bottom item belongs where it is. For the past nine months I have been chronically overtired. We just went on vacation and have been staying with family who are willing to get up and help out with the kids in the morning. After just a week, I feel like a new person. I guess what I'm wondering as I look at this is about the idea of balance. When I look at the top three items in particular, I feel as though I need different amounts of the things at different times and that when I have too much of one and not enough of another, I start to feel all out of whack.
