Story Text:

Sigmund Freud is a well-known Austrian neurologist, psychoanalyst, and physiologist renowned for his indulgence in lab and clinical sciences. He is also one of the pioneers and influential theorists of the twentieth century who proposed the psychoanalytical theory of human personality. 

Sigmund Freud is also believed to be the early founder in pursuit of human behavior's reasoning. His theories about human thoughts, dreams, childhood memories, consciousness, unconsciousness, and the human drive for sexuality proved a milestone in studying human behavior. 

His psychoanalytical theory describes the three constituents of human personality, i.e., id, ego, and superego. Id is the source of primitive drives and wild demands lying in a person's unconscious mind. On the contrary, the superego is the sense of morality and standards set by family, friends, and society. While the ego is the mediator or agent of the human psyche to remind a person to beware of his id's inappropriate and unacceptable demands.

Freud not only presented the theory of psychoanalysis but also suggested psychotherapies to cope with the anxiety caused by continuous suppression of unfulfilled desires, such as cognitive behavioral therapy. 

Being an atheist, he believed that religion could not give contentment. He said children's relationship with their fathers or father figures determines their religious views.

Some of his works are "The Interpretation of Dreams," "Civilization and it's Discontents", "The Unconsciousness ", etc., which influenced many of his contemporaries and descending theorists and behaviorists. He determined the significant notions that are the components of the human brain and behavior.

He also articulated his beliefs about society and culture. Though his beliefs were not validated by his contemporaries and were very controversial, later research proved their significance and efficiency.

The Healing Flower

About the writer : This is Sana Hidayat . I am doing BS English (literature & linguistics). I am a professional writer and have been writing for 03 years. Story text:  Does everyone in this world suffer? Yes, definitely. Does everyone face the same struggles in life? Not really, surely not. Even though humans are tested differently in this world, they can heal each other, being each other's strength through thick and thin. This is how many recuperate. This is what Daisy believed strongly. Her name, a symbolical flower of healing also known as "Chamomile" is what might have created a huge impact on Daisy perhaps. She dressed in white frocks with puffy selves, her favorite without a doubt. Her existence was no different than any other being except for an extra amount of optimism for sure. Daisy was unique in other aspects for unlike others she was born in the world of eternal Autumn. Where ashes fell from the sky like confett...

Luciren Thoornis - Multiverse is Real

Once he felt that he was still unable to breathe properly , he thought of that lucid nightmare as one of the most tragic events of his life. Perhaps, it is just that he was on the verge of something? Or Something beyond his expectation is gonna happen real soon. But how soon? His mind was constantly alarming that something more than the dangerous is going to happen real soon, something that is going to create more havoc that he just felt a moment before. Just at that moment, he saw his old friend, Medusis Aurithnea entering the room. He became quite surprised. Because he thought that she might have left with all the other friends after tonight’s party at his home. But it seemed like she stayed at is home tonight.
