    Clarisse Apresurado Sapida
    Sigmund Freud developed psychoanalysis, a method of therapy involving bringing unconscious material into consciousness through techniques like free association and dream interpretation. He believed behaviors have underlying causes and that early childhood psychosexual development influences personality. Repressed wishes from each oral, anal, phallic, etc. stage can result in neuroses if not resolved, with fixation possibly occurring. The ego, id, and superego structure our personalities to manage drives and reduce anxiety over unacceptable impulses.

    resistance – force which prevents patient from
    becoming aware of certain memory.

    repression- blocking of a wish or desire from


    consciousness – which may result to neurotic
    symptoms (analogy of the rude student)
    repressed wishes need to be restored in our
    consciousness so we can deal with them
    realistically.

    THE BEGINNING OF PSYCHOANALYSIS


    Psychoanalysis – a method of therapy in which the therapist
    attempts to bring repressed unconscious material into
    consciousness.
    -all human behaviors have a cause, nothing happens simply by
    chance, even by accident

    FREE ASSOCIATION – verbalizing whatever comes to mind


    INTERPRETATION OF DREAMS and
    SLIPS (OF THE TONGUE, OF THE PEN, JOKES/HUMOR) - minor
    mistakes, like slip of the tongue, are manisfestations of unconcious
    motives
    -through humor, a person can express aggressiveness or sexual
    desires without fear of retaliation by either the ego or the superego.

    The Psychoanalytic Method


    The importance of Sexuality
    2 basic impulses:
    • EROS or LIFE INSTINCT
    -libido is the energy associated with life instinct.
    -libidinal energy is expanded to prolong life

    • THANATOS or DEATH INSTINCT


    -the aim of all life is death
    -a derivative of the death instinct is aggression
    The Psychosexual Stages of Development
    ORAL STAGE (0-1)
    sucking, feeding, biting, chewing
    ANAL STAGE (1-4)
    toilet training (bowel and bladder control) with a concern
    for cleanliness and control
    PHALLIC STAGE (4-6)
    pleasure from the genitals, this is where the OEDIPUS
    COMPLEX arise and must be resolved
    LATENCY STAGE (7-puberty)
    -gender identity, increase in same-sex friendship
    GENITAL STAGE (puberty)
    -combination of sexual desire and affection for others
    -develops the capacity for adult love
    • There are conflicts and troubles to be resolved at
    each stage and failure to resolve these may lead
    to adult difficulty
    • -too much or little gratification at any given
    stage can result to FIXATION
    • -those with too much gratification during
    oral stage become too dependent on others
    • -those with too much gratification during
    anal stage become compulsively neat
    Structure of Personality
    ANXIETY – unpleasant feelings of tension or worry
    experienced by individuals in reaction to unacceptable
    wishes or impulses.

    -functions to warn us that if we continue to thinking


    or behaving in a certain way, we will be in danger
    -since anxiety is not pleasant, we need to reduce it
