Psychopathology of everyday life. Freud Z.

“Psychopathology of everyday life” (1901) is one of the main studies of the great Austrian scientist Sigmund Freud, which laid the foundation of his theory of psychoanalysis along with the “interpretation of dreams” (1900), “Introduction to Psychoanalysis” (1910), “I and it and it "(1923). This small book has become a scientific classic of the twentieth century. Studying various deviations from the stereotypes of ordinary behavior, strange defects and malfunctions, and even, at first glance, random mistakes and tinkers, the scientist concludes that they indicate deep disorders of the psyche, symptoms of psychoneurosis. Analyzing numerous cases of such deviations, he comes to the conclusion that “the border between normal and abnormal in the field of nervousness is fragile and that we are all a little nervous... Such symptoms are able to disrupt nutrition, sexual departures, ordinary work, communication with people.”
