Jokes that my little sister and dad told me this holiday weekend.

Analyze these everyday experiences with the idea they may reflect the contents of your unconscious mind. Summarize your conclusions from a Freudian perspective.

Answer 1

According to Freudian , unconciousness behaiour play most important role .Most of the genuine behaiour are caused through unconcious mind.Later he has developed the concept of Id, ego and super ego. Which is three important dimensions of human personlality.Above experience and behaviour is the result of our unconcious mind . Because unconcious behaiour always exbit real behaviour.i was late to class because of could not find parking . Intendly I won't attend the class. If I really want to present the class then ofcourse i would find another option.oftenly we express our inner or unconcious thought in a stressful situation. Because we show genuine behaiour that is represent by unconcious mind .I still do not forget my past and suddenly when I had seen similar incident , unconcious mind made me think or remind me about it.

So each and every experience are causes due to unconcious mind . Everything has stored in our unconcious mind . But we are just supressed our inner feeling with impact circumstances .Therefore, conflict, anxiety has created.in fruedian prespctive , when get such favarouble condition , our unconcious behaviour automatically exibit . For example , when I was stressed about my school work , I said something to mean my sister or slip of to tounge .that is our unconcious behaiour .It is true that most of the content in unconcious is unacceptable, unpleasant, such as feelings of pain, anxiety.fruedian viewed that in our unconcious mind consist socially unacceptable desire or wish. In Id , we are doing such things whatever intend to do .we are not socially or morally judging anything which is totally instinct or unconcious behaiour. But in concious behaiour ego, we are face conflict and also also think of moral prespctive before doing any unethical action.super ego is highest part of concious behaiour where we are always do such things which is morally aceptable . So we should alwys exbit such concious behaiour and only acepted positive unconcious behaiour rather than repressed our needs .
