Freud’s realization that patients had both unconscious and conscious memories allowed for a deeper understanding of the manifestation of psychoses and symptoms. Freud’s belief in id,and ego, resulted in his psychoanalytic practice of dream therapy and his assertion that there were levels of consciousness and untapped memories below the superficial that could only be accessed through dreams (Tuckett, 2019).
This is significant in modern therapy in the importance of accessing repressed memory, and unconscious thought as a therapeutic means to treat trauma, and holistically understanding a patient’s presentation of symptoms. Freud influenced our understanding of the mind not just as a whole, but as parts, each with a different function or purpose, and sometimes countering each other. Freud’s study of the brain and causality between conscious thought, repression of memories, and psychoanalysis, was a precursor for our modern understanding of cognitive psychology (De Sousa, 2011). Although his understanding of cognition and depths of consciousness was a theory and not proven through neuroscience with the lack of technology, Freud was able to attempt to mine the depths of the mind, a practice that is relevant today.

2. Rich Dq 1. Freud’s theory of the conscious and unconscious is related to people’s reactions to hysteria and anxiety. How people engage in their environment results from psychological energy that drives them to specific activities (Buckle, 2023). These energies in the psyche can result from trauma. Trauma can lead to the first theory of neurosis, that being trauma defense, where the trauma is repressed into the unconscious. The energy results in hysteria and anxiety in the person’s consciousness. Understanding the conscious and unconscious was a breakthrough in psychoanalysis. Freud would have his patients talk through their anxiety and hysteria, usually with hypnosis, to bring the unconscious energy to the surface so that the client could deal with it. Once they realize the cause of their problem, they can move on to live productive lives (Sletvold, 2016). These breakthroughs in psychotherapy made significant changes to the science and philosophy of psychology, as well as enabling further breakthroughs in how therapy is used to treat the mentally ill. Without Freud getting things going, behavior therapy, cognitive therapy, and gestalt therapy would not have made progress as they had.
3. Richard Brown Dq 2. Freud secondary system was sexual trauma to produce symptoms such anxiety and neurasthenia. He calls neuroses that are produced by sexual practices, such as excessive masturbation or coitus interruptus, actual neuroses (Ellman, 2018). seduction hypothesis, it could refer to something that was done to one person by another. A predatory adult molests the child. Even as the notion of seduction was naturalized by Laplanche, cleansing it of consciousness and certainly of malevolent intent, agency remains with the adult; the impact is something that is experienced passively by the child (Greenberg, 2019). Freud believed neurosis was caused by sexuality, one way or the other. And this was so even in cases in which an ordinary emotion, not of a sexual kind, had led to the outbreak of the disease. We see Freud stress again and again how scenes of seduction and sexual abuse in childhood can be real or fantasized and how such events among the essential elements of neurosis (Sletvold,2016). I do not agree with the abandonment of seduction hypothesis because it provides a realistic view of the causes behind neurosis. It did not deal with the world of inner fantasy. The trauma experienced during the engagement of committing an act to someone else for the sake of pleasure is a traumatic event. These acts effect the emotional stability of a person. The whole idea behind seduction hypothesis was to have a person probe deep into their subconscious mind to connect with the experiences that created the neurosis. These memories go far back into their childhood. It led to an original scene of sexual arousal at the hands of another person (Greenberg, 2001). Also, it evokes the impressive forces that bring about the creation and the destruction of human desire and human relatedness (p.426).
