“Hysteria is not just a disease, but an expression of hidden conflicts between unconscious desires and the social pressures that constrain them.”
One day, a beautiful girl visited Sigmund Freud’s clinic in Vienna, whom the pioneer of psychoanalysis would give in his writings about her as “Dora”, which was not her real name, of course. Freud knew the girl because, fifteen months earlier, he had finished treating her for a severe case of hysteria, and he had written a comprehensive study about her. Freud wrote about that visit: “That day, for the first time, I received news about my patient’s health and the results of my treatment. On a not insignificant day, the first of April, the girl came to me to complete her story and ask me for help again… However, her appearance indicated at first glance that her request, this time, should not be taken seriously…” So, during that new visit Freud did not take the matter seriously, but before that, when that girl came to him really sick and he treated her, he took the matter very seriously… In fact, he treated his patient in such a way that, as soon as he finished treating her, he wrote an extensive report about her, which many considered a breach of the medical code of honor, even though Freud never specified the girl’s real name or put any indication that would truly reveal her identity – and this report became the famous text entitled “The Psychoanalysis of Hysteria: The Case of Dora”, which would form part of one of Freud’s most important books, “Five Cases of Psychoanalysis”. Today we know that “The Case of Dora” is considered a milestone in the history of psychoanalysis as a whole, as in Freud’s work, as that text is considered “the first detailed and field report on the psychoanalysis of a neurotic case”.
