¡Descarga Defense Neuroses: A Study by Sigmund Freud y más Resúmenes en PDF de Psicoanálisis solo en Docsity! 1 Made by MatyBuda MANUSCRIPT K (260-2) Sigmund Freud (1950) Summary: There are four types of defense neuroses and various forms, but I can draw a comparison between hysteria, obsessive neurosis, and one form of paranoia. These neuroses are pathological aberrations of normal psychic affective states: of conflict (hysteria), of reproach (obsessive neurosis), of mortification (paranoia), and of mourning (acute hallucinatory amentia). They are distinguished from these affections by leading to no processing, but to permanent damage to the ego. They are triggered on the same occasions as their model affects, provided that the occasion is of a sexual nature and occurs in the period prior to sexual maturity. About conditions concerning the person I have not come to know anything new; In general, heredity is an additional condition that facilitates and increases pathological affect, but I do not think that it commands the choice of defense neurosis. There is a normal defensive tendency that involves a reluctance to guide psychic energy in a way that generates displeasure. This tendency, intertwined with the most fundamental constellations of the psychic mechanism, cannot be turned against perceptions, only against memories and representations of thought. It is harmless when it comes to representations that do not generate actual displeasure, but it becomes harmful when it is directed against representations that can trigger a new displeasure, such as sexual ones. The repression of childhood sexual memories can generate displeasure, but the most immediate explanation of this displeasure is not sufficient. The genesis of displeasure in the repression of premature sexual stimulation needs a deeper explanation, related to an independent source of displeasure detachment within sexual life. Without a correct theory of the sexual process, the question of the genesis of effective displeasure in repression will remain unresolved. Explanation and conclusion: The text discusses the existence of four types of defense neurosis, hysteria, obsessive neurosis, and a form of paranoia. These neuroses are characterized by being pathological aberrations of normal psychic affective states, such as conflict, reproach, mortification, and mourning, but with the particularity of not leading to any processing and causing permanent damage to the ego. They are triggered in circumstances like their model affects, especially when it comes to events of a sexual nature that occur before sexual maturity. In addition, it is mentioned that heredity can facilitate and increase pathological affect, but it does not seem to determine the choice of defense neurosis. A normal defensive tendency is highlighted, which involves avoiding generating psychic displeasure, but this tendency becomes harmful when directed against representations that can trigger a new displeasure, especially sexual ones. It is suggested that the repression of childhood sexual memories can generate displeasure, but it is recognized that the most immediate explanation of this phenomenon is not sufficient. It is suggested that the genesis of displeasure in the repression of premature sexual stimulation requires a deeper explanation, related to an independent source of displeasure detachment within sexual life. However, it is concluded that, without a correct theory of the sexual process, the question of the genesis of effective displeasure in repression will remain unanswered. In summary, the text analyzes the characteristics of defense neuroses, highlighting their relationship to childhood sexual events and suggesting the need for a deeper understanding of the sexual process to fully understand the genesis of the displeasure associated with repression. Main Ideas: - There are four types of defense neuroses and various forms. - Comparison between hysteria, obsessive neurosis, and a form of paranoia. - Neuroses are pathological aberrations of normal psychic affective states. - Distinguishing these neuroses by their effect on the ego does not lead to any processing. - Triggered by sexual events before sexual maturity.
