The Mind Parasite Revealed; and the Work of Colin Wilson
The work of Colin Wilson deserves consideration. He's written about mind parasites, the higher self, and the robot within. I don't know how I ever managed to miss his work. I guess what matters most is that I found it now, today - as needed.
Colin Wilson's fictional novel The Mind Parasites is is based on H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. "The story is about Professor Gilbert Austin's conflict with the Tsathogguans, invisible mind parasites that menace the most brilliant people on earth." [See Wiki] Sound familiar?

The following is a brief summation of Wilson's work from Wikipedia:
"The Outsider (Colin Wilson)
Gollancz published the 24-year-old Wilson's The Outsider in 1956. The work examines the role of the social "outsider" in seminal works by various key literary and cultural figures – such as Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Ernest Hemingway, Hermann Hesse, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, William James, T. E. Lawrence, Vaslav Nijinsky and Vincent van Gogh – and discusses Wilson's perception of social alienation in their work. The book became a best-seller and helped popularise existentialism in Britain.[10] It has never been out of print and has been translated into more than thirty languages.
The back cover of the 2001 paperback edition reads:
[In The Outsider] Wilson rationalized the psychological dislocation so characteristic of Western creative thinking into a coherent theory of alienation, and defined those affected by it as a type: the Outsider. Through the works of various artists... Wilson explored the psyche of the Outsider, his effect on society and society's on him. Nothing has happened in the past four decades that has made The Outsider any less relevant.."
