The shadow self usually refers to the hidden parts of our personality that we reject either because we find them repulsive or because society does and we are ashamed. As a person with a Bachelor’s in psychology I do have to say there is not a lot of evidence for this mainly because in the modern form it’s not testable and in the original Jungian form it doesn’t appear to be true. If you need I can edit this with references that will help if needed.
