Dream Psychology

More about the book

Freud's theory delves into the intricate relationship between dreams and the unconscious mind, positing that they serve as a medium for wish fulfillment and conflict resolution. He argues that while the unconscious harbors raw and often unsettling thoughts, a censor within the preconscious restricts their direct expression. During dreams, this censor relaxes, allowing distorted representations of these desires to emerge. Consequently, the imagery in dreams requires careful interpretation to uncover the underlying motives and conflicts shaping an individual's psyche.
