Normal and Abnormal
in Psychical Life

A 10-lesson email course by J Jones and AROPA

Status: Continuous

 

Description

Normal and abnormal in psychic life are no longer separated features. This was the statement of psychoanalytic research and findings in the area of its clinical experience. Still how one may figure out the truth of this statement when dealing with his/her specific life events? Let's say you feel ashamed because of a symptom of weakness or even anxiety. You think it's something wrong with you and you should pay a visit to a psychotherapist. You start to believe that you are no longer as normal as your mate or family. Is this true? It is for most of the people. It is not for those who followed the psychoanalytic approach of the psychic life. In the words Sigmund Freud: normal and abnormal differ only on a quantitative plane! In fact they seem to be equal.

This course shows by means of examples that normal and abnormal are no longer separated. It also shows how one may step over the border between the two and the consequence of the vanishing of the normal-abnormal polarity in psychic life.

The course addresses people interested in finding hints on how to deal with their feel of not being normal or being disturbed, so having to look for psychotherapist assistance. We hope it'll help those in need of psychological insight.
