Anima and Animus

They way I tend to go with a lot of old school psychology is to not read it in detail but pick up on the concepts and fill in the blanks myself.

For example, I think Carl Jung is a genius without having read anything directly from him

One of the concepts I'm interested in is the Anima/Animus... seems to mean a masculine/feminine balance to each genders psyche which makes sense to me.

I have a feeling when this goes out of wack it can lead to mental health problems. Am I right or is that a misunderstaning?

i dunno if its balance per se. as a geezer you have a bird inside. shes called anima and she whispers secrets in your ear. if you were a bird you would have a little geezer living inside you called Animus.
