Psychopathology of Everyday Life
The title of this blog post is the title of a book i just read by Sigmund Freud. He suggests that every actions/mistake taken by human beings is affected by ones subconsicousness. This is provided that they are consicously not thinking of what they are doing at that time. Therefore, any slip in actions or accidental mistakes done by a person can actually be affected by things that had happened to him before or memories related to his childhood. Besides these two ways, there are still many other subconsicous reason taht can affect us. I am deeply impressed by the examples cites by Freud. Even though he had no real sceintific experiments to prove his theory, he was able to come up with numerous examples to back this theory. And furthermore, his analyst are extremely critical and his creativity allows him to link seemingly unrelated ideas together.
This idea is actually very scary because it shows that no matter how irrational our actions may seem sometimes, they are actually very related to how we actually feel and how we think. Therefore, we are able to actually predict people's action if we have enough information on hand. That is a very scary thought. We are able to read people's mind, every action can be predicted and even controlled by altering the ideas in someone's head. Perfection is no long just a dream but a reality.
Sometimes, i wonder what my body react is actually very related to what i think. I always skip meals nowadays and i realised that when that happens, my stomach dun feel hungry sometimes but yet at few occasions, i can feel extreme grastric pains or extremely hungry. This might be due to the fact that i want to punish my own body and thus causing my body to react that way. Therefore, it can allow me not to eat at regular timings. My mum told me that this can affect my stomach digestive system because it can sometimes overwork(when i feel extremely hungry) and under work (when i don't eat at all). This will then cause digestive problems. Then i will somehow end up like my dad in the end. Maybe subconsicously i am trying to model my dad. But i don't understand why. Maybe if i dwell further into it i might figure something out someday. Scary isn't it? Haha.
