What is psychoanalysis
Psychoanalysis is a theory on the structure and functioning of psyche as well as a method of treating mind disorders. It was created step by step by Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neuropathologist who started
from the observations of Dr. Breuer who was treating a patient suffering from hysterical disorders. Initially using hypnosis as a method to investigate the conditions for the appearance of
symptoms, Freud applies the method of free associations after he gave up hypnosis. He also discovers the meaning of dreams and created a method of interpretation that accompanies the
psychological treatment. Freud approached child and adult sexual life because it's repression explains much of our life discontent. Last but not least he talked about the so-called
Oedipus complex as a basis of the human cultural development. Freud applies his astonishing discoveries to cultural facts and artistic creation just to show us how they spring from our
unfulfilled wishes and unconscious facts. This site is dedicated to Freud's work (see menu sections). Site Content____
