Every time you call your boyfriend "daddy" Freud's soul grow a little stronger.
-
"Trying to sleep with other members of our own family" that escalated quickly

"All family life is organized around the most damaged person in it." ~ Sigmund Freud

-
"Adults are children that has become insane" - Sigmund Freud
-
So, a Freudian slip is when you say something but mean your mother... - I mean another...
-
It's pretty entertaining that Freud's theories seem to make people unnecessarily mad, even today.
-
If only he knew how many people today are called"daddy"
-
I heard a story about how Sigmund Freud's wife was mopping the floor, but forgot to tell him that the floor was wet. He had a Freudian slip.
-
“Out of your vulnerabilities, comes your strength.” -Sigmund Freud
-
And all this time I couldn't explain why 'mature', 'mom', 'mother catches son' and 'sister' were so popular
-
yup childhood is damaging and makes us wierd and stressed true

Through years of studying psychology I have learned to really appreciate Freud and his ideas (even though they sound crazy at the surface). He was the first person to touch upon what we now know as cognitive dissonance; the great discomfort of holding conflicting attitudes, which drives us to irrational behaviours over and over again. My fellow psychology undergraduates tend to dismiss him as a crackhead and a scam, but even though his reasoning was a little bit wack, some of his conclusions were indeed appropriate, and with modern cognitive psychology we are now discovering that fact.
-
This is probably the best, most calm and rational explanation of Freud's views I've found in a long while.
-
The "children sexualizing their parents" part is pretty bonkers and unbelievable to me
-
Freud had a difficult life. He was rejected by everyone in his field. He CREATED the field of psychology. His work and then break with Jung was the great schism of our current age.
-
How difficult can it be to locate an eel's reproductive organs?

-
if he could see titles on p hub imagine the feeling of "i told you so"

I started reading Sigmund Freud's work when I was 13 and since then I started understanding more and more psychoanalysis and use it in most of life's occasions. I also help out friends with analysing their inner cores. Despite the negative comments about Freud, I still love his way of thinking and discovering solutions to out lives.
