  • Subtitles section
  • Considered to be the founder of the psychodynamic approach to psychology, Sigmund Freud was an Austrian neurologist who's most famous for creating and developing the technique of psychoanalysis.
  • Psychoanalysis is a set of theories and therapeutic techniques used with the goal to release repressed emotions and memories, which can lead to catharsis and healing.
  • The aim of psychoanalysis is to bring what lies deep in one's unconscious or subconscious mind
  • up to their level of consciousness.
  • But what exactly are these levels of consciousness?
  • Sigmund Freud divided human consciousness into three levels, conscious, pre conscious, and unconscious.
  • Freud's interest in the unconscious mind was brought on by an experience his teacher, Joseph Brahe, had with a patient.
  • The patient,
  • known as ANA O, suffered from hysteria, a condition in which the patient can exhibit physical symptoms such as paralysis, convulsions, hallucinations, selective amnesia, and loss of speech, all with no apparent physical cause.
  • Burr was successful in treating Anna by using a form of talk therapy to help her recall traumatic events and unwanted memories.
  • In his discussions, Burr found that she had developed a fear of drinking when a dog she despised drank from her glass.
  • Other symptoms were brought on when she cared for her sick father.
  • The point of Anna O's case being, once she had a chance to express and bring out these unconscious thoughts to a conscious level, her paralysis disappeared.
  • Because of his sessions with Anna O, Breuer developed the talking cure and laid the foundation for a cycle analysis, which his protege, Freud, would later develop.
  • Ultimately, Breuer's discussion with Freud about the case sparked an interest in Freud.
  • All which led to his proposal that physical symptoms are often the outer manifestation of deeply repressed conflicts.
  • In his book, Studies in Hysteria, conflicts which can lie within a level of our consciousness.
  • This would lead him to his psychoanalytic theories in his proposal that there are three levels of the mind.
  • Freud developed a topographical model of the mind, having an iceberg represent the mind and its three levels of consciousness.
  • The conscious.
  • The surface and tip of the iceberg is consciousness.
  • These are our thoughts and feelings that have our attention and focus.
  • This level of the mind includes what we are aware of and what we can easily bring to our awareness.
  • This is the mental activity we consciously know about and only makes up a tiny portion of our mind.
  • The pre conscious.
  • The pre conscious part of our mind, or for the old term subconscious,
  • is where we can recall and retrieve information from our memories.
  • We are not currently aware of these thoughts, but we can easily bring them to consciousness.
  • Thoughts and feelings wait here, lying just beneath the surface of consciousness, until they succeed in attracting the eye of the conscious, as Freud describes.
  • This is where our available memory resides.
  • Preconscious thoughts are ones which are not repressed and are easily capable of becoming conscious.
  • The unconscious.
  • The deepest level and largest portion of the mind according to Freud's topographical system is the unconscious.
  • This region holds the thoughts, feelings, desires, urges, hopes, and wishes.
  • Whether we realize it or not, our behavior, feelings, and motives are all influenced by our unconscious.
  • We may hold past experiences and unwanted memories in our unconscious.
  • The real cause of our behavior is from the processes that reside in our unconscious level.
  • The unconscious level is represented as the part of the iceberg you can't see.
  • The largest and most important part of the iceberg lies beneath the surface.
  • Unconscious phenomena can include repressed feelings, automatic skills, automatic reactions, and subliminal perceptions as suggested by empirical evidence.
  • Hidden phobias, desires, and complexes are also believed to be a part of this as well.
  • Thoughts and feelings from our unconscious have a way of showing themselves to us.
  • Freud believed unconscious processes represented themselves in dreams, which is why therapists with psychoanalysis training help patients analyze their dreams as a part of treatment.
  • This is all in hopes that they can bring suppressed memories to their consciousness, often in hopes of a cathartic release.
  • Another way the unconscious part of the mind represents itself is through jokes, or through a Freudian slip, named after Freud himself.
  • A Freudian slip is when one's unconscious feelings present themselves through an error in speech.
  • Freud once gave an example of this slip of the tongue, pointing to a British Member of Parliament's subtle mistake.
  • Instead of referring to his colleague with whom he was irritated with as the honorable member from hell, the British member of parliament referred to him as the honorable member from hell.
  • Freud found that many of his patients often repressed traumatic events, painful memories, or shameful desires as they were too difficult to confront.
  • Many of us turn to defense mechanisms to avoid knowing the truth of what they're feeling, as it can be difficult to confront.
  • These feelings and memories can instead get locked away inside our unconscious mind, secretly governing our behavior more than we think.
  • But the goal of psychoanalysis lies within confronting the pain that holds us back, to make the unconscious conscious.
  • So what do you think of psychoanalytic theory and the unconscious mind?
  • What feelings could you be secretly hiding?
  • Have you ever had a Freudian slip?
  • You bet we wanna know what it is.
