Freud is often scoffed at a little by other psychologists. Doesn’t help he was also on drugs a lot, so take what he says with a grain of salt cause not one person has the answers for everything and definitely not one man from the 1900’s.

I disagree with Freud to be honest. I think a lot of psychologists nowadays also disagree with Freud.

You think you know the answer, but you don't really. Nobody does. Freud was not a scientific researchers, according to modern standards. He was more like a philosopher. So his theories are matters of opinion, really.

with "i think i know the answer" I meant it as this probably not true, but looking back to it most of neuroscience is still undiscovered and a lot of things are uncertain so that means intrusive thoughts could be hidden desires, Freud could be right as nothing is certain..

intrusive or not
are they truly intrusive thoughts or am i thinking and creating automatically graphic images that i dont want to think? i think it happens because it's too easy once you're anxious abt it. i dont enjoy it. i just saw a trigger and had a graphic disturbing se&ual image in my head.

subconscious = true self? Please help
Hi guys. Just a question. If you do something subconsciously does it mean it comes from your true self? Because I did something and I’m now realizing I had a bad motive. I’m so anxious right now Im spiraling.
