I wished to become a psychoanalyst not long time ago. I enjoyed reading and learning about it. It's interesting trying to understand, analyse and help people. But I won't do it. Because psychoanalysis is not taken seriously these days. They say Freud is dead... it's been so since the 90s...
So why not try and do psychology? you'll be able to "understand, analyse and help people" maybe just not using psychoanalysis, and if there are any advances you'd find out about it aswell...
their are still pyschoanylisis, and personally i think many of his ideas aren't that far off base, but if you could combine some of his practics into modern pyschology you could staisfy a lot of needs
Myself- good for you, if u are still virgin adn want to help people and anylze them, its not for u :S... imagine how many more new expiriences u'd get if u had relationships.... talkign to opposite sex...
Shrug. If you say so. I think counselling is alive and well and most practising therapists are Freudian. A recent empirical study showed that Freudian 'talking cure' therapy was as effective as any other type in treating depression. And, bottom line, if you believe it and you think it will help people, why not do it?
I guess so. Maybe it has its roots deep in my subconscious. But it will take time to make it reach the surface. So are you ready for a psychoanalytic session?
Myself- Most of them are uninteresting or stupid.... you just havnt met real one... or yo u are just so smart ? .. but still beign a vrigin.. hm mnot good.... something must be wrong... =/
