During the therapy session, while the patient was lying on the couch, telling Freud about his psychological problem, a breeze blew in from the window, carrying with it the scent of the city gardens that were dressed in spring. The patient sneezed and scratched his nose. Freud looked at him and said triumphantly: “Do you know that the reason for your sneezing now is a sexual one?” He went on to explain the reasons that go back to childhood. During that, the patient tried to interrupt him more than once, but Freud stopped him and continued his analysis with great enthusiasm… Simply put, all the patient wanted to say was that he was suffering from spring allergies…
The book “Repression” (in German: Der Verdrängung) by Sigmund Freud is one of the most important works that dealt with the subject of the human psyche from a psychoanalytic perspective. In this book, Freud explains the idea of repression as a defense mechanism used by the unconscious mind to deal with disturbing or painful feelings and thoughts that a person cannot deal with consciously.
The main concept of the book is that repression is an unconscious process through which repressed desires or thoughts (which may be sexual, aggressive, or related to psychological trauma) are pushed into the unconscious. This repression causes these desires to become unavailable to consciousness, preventing the individual from being able to process them properly, and thus their effect may appear in behavior, feelings, and dreams.
The book deals with many basic psychological concepts such as the ego, the id, and the conscience (Superego), and examines how repression affects the formation of personality and psychological disorders. Freud also links repression to symptoms such as anxiety, psychological stress, and dreams.
Through “repression,” Freud provides a deeper understanding of the psychological defense mechanism and how this mechanism affects our emotional and behavioral experience, emphasizing that revealing what is repressed can help in psychotherapy and achieving mental balance.
