Psychoanalytic theory was developed by Sigmend Freud. It is a system in which unconscious motivations are considered to shape normal and abnormal personality development and behavior. Psychoanalysis is commonly used to treat depression and anxiety disorders. Freud’s Psychosexual Theory of Development explains that if there was a conflict in a stage and not resolved that person would be fixated. Carl Jung’s Analytic Psychology is according to the mind or psyche. Alfred Alder’s Individual Psychology is the importance of each person’s perceived niche in society.…

I can agree with portions from all of the doctors and their theories. I believe that there is a sexual connotation to most everything that people do, whether it is out-right or hidden in context. I can also see where most everyone suffers from some type of inferiority complex. Every person can admit to be lacking in some area in which they would rather excel. As far as Jung and his individuation on the other hand, I believe this to be lacking in substance. His thoughts on humans being social creatures and the influence that our surroundings have on us are quite valid. I also believe that we do have an Id or a primal instinct inside of us, but that Id is not in conflict with our Ego and Super-Ego. These three parts work in unison to drive us and propel each of us into becoming better people yet not letting us forget from where we originate.…
The first phase of Jungian Individuation is the biological identity, given by Diana Marfleet. She was a beautiful volunteer nurse were Dunstable was taken during the war, she cared for Dunstable while he was bed ridden. “She had been nursing me… she had also washed me and attended to my bed pan and the urinal” [Davies, 77]. Diana became a mother figure to him, as the relationship grew; Dunstan began to reject her presence. Jung explains “The mother complex… experience of the personal mother, then by significant contact with other women…” [Sharp, 21]“In homosexuality, the son 's entire heterosexuality is tied to the mother in an unconscious form; in Don Juanism, he unconsciously seeks his mother in every woman he meets” [Jung, 162]. Don Juanism displays why Dunstan would reject Diana because in his unconscious she represent his mother. Diana represents Eve in mythical terms; she has insightful information but is rejected jus as Adam did.…

Being that Adler and Jung were partners for a long period of time then they went their separate ways to have their own theories. The main focus of therapy using this theory would be cognition, perception, and motivation of the client also with focus on the strength to grow and develop (Capuzzi,Gross, 2011). With this theory its main focus is for here and now we have to let these clients speak what’s on their mind and hear what they have to say (Capuzzi,Gross, 2011). With this theory the main focus is to focus on the total person which includes mind, body, and soul (Capuzzi,Gross, 2011). With this approach Jung’s focus is conscious and unconscious aspects of the client in being about to search their mean in in life in a personal way and also using psyche (Capuzzi,Gross,…

Ian Christopherson, the son of Struan’s doctor, Dr. Christopherson, experiences the sudden leave of his mother, which not only affects him emotionally, but his lifestyle as well. Mrs. Christopherson had been Dr. Christopherson’s nurse as well as his wife, so when she left, Ian had no choice but to fill in her spot as his father’s assistant. Ian adapts to this new responsibility quickly, since “he still felt resentful whenever he thought about it, but he didn’t think about it much anymore” (97). This shows how his mother’s leave changes up his day-to-day lifestyle to the point where he doesn’t really mind it anymore. After his mother leaving and Ian seeing the kind of woman she had been all along, he makes it a personal code of behavior to never behave as she had done. For example, “in any tricky personal situation he had asked himself what his mother would have done, and then he had done the opposite. It seemed to him that she was the perfect anti-role model” (208). His mother’s past actions have an effect on Ian’s actions and how he should act in certain situations. This suffering also causes him to see women in a different light. For instance, in his eyes, Laura Dunn used to always be the image of the perfect mother, with no flaws whatsoever. However, after his mother’s leave, Ian’s image of Laura’s…
Jung and Freud would become extremely close friends, even to the point where they saw in each other a father and son respectively, and would continue to correspond for many years, even visiting one another despite the distance between Zurich and Vienna, where Freud lived (Schultz & Schultz, 2012). The two would eventually become so close that even years later there would be those who find it difficult to even think of one of the two psychologists without the other (Shamdasani, 2003). There is some debate that the relationship between the two might have held some components of a complex Freud named the Oedipus complex, wherein the son desires to destroy the father, while others suggest that a previous experience Jung had with a man he considered a father figure who made sexual overtures towards him when he was only 18 eventually contributed to the end of their relationship (Schultz & Schultz, 2012). Regardless of the reasons, the relationship between the two ended when Jung published The Psychology of the Unconscious in 1912, which differed notably from Freud's own brand of psychoanalysis. It is even noted that Jung dithered on publishing his book for months because he knew very well that it would lead to a rift between himself and…
Freud had a significant influence on Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung, whose analytical psychology became an alternative form of depth psychology. Other well-known psychoanalytic thinkers of the mid-twentieth century included Sigmund Freud's daughter, psychoanalyst Anna Freud; German-American psychologist Erik Erickson, Austrian-British psychoanalyst Melanie Klein, English psychoanalyst and physician D. W. Winnicott, German psychologist Karen Horney, German-born psychologist and philosopher Erich Fromm, and English psychiatrist John Bowlby. Contemporary psychoanalysis comprises diverse schools of thought, including ego psychology, object relations, interpersonal, Lacanian, and relational psychoanalysis. Modification of Jung's theories has led to the archetypal and process-oriented schools of psychological thought.…

Finally he goes to trial and is found guilty. His punishment is to have his hands removed from his body.…
Psychopathology and mental disturbances have always been prevalent in cinema because they add an element of drama and mystery. Films portraying mentally disturbed characters like Dr. Dippy´s Sanitarium (1906) or Das Kabinett des Dr. Caligari (1919) by Robert Wiener were released only a short time after the Lumière brothers had invented the cinematographer. Since then, there are a large number of films whose plot and intrigue are based on insanity and its manifestations. The list grows steadily every year.
