The only person with whom you have to compare ourselves, is that you in the past. And the only per-son better you should be, this is who you are now. Son, Past, Should. The only shame in masturbation is the shame of not doing it well. Shame, Masturbation, Wells. The mind is like an iceberg, it floats with one-seventh of its bulk above water.
An example Freud gives for this concept, is a man who imagined marrying his doctor’s daughter, when in reality he had stopped being with women altogether (Vaillant, 1992). Dissociation, the first defense mechanism identified by Freud, involves detaching from reality for a period of time (Vaillant, 1992). This defense is often used by clients.
Defense mechanisms operate at an unconscious level and help ward off unpleasant feelings (i.e., anxiety) or make good things feel better for the individual. Ego-defense mechanisms are natural and normal. When they get out of proportion (i.e., used with frequency), neuroses develop, such as anxiety states, phobias, obsessions, or hysteria.
Freud. Early in the twentieth century Sigmund Freud developed his psychoanalytic methodology for treating traumatic neurosis. He noted that “external excitations (also called traumas) undoubtedly provoke a very extensive disturbance in the workings of energy of the organism and will set in motion every kind of protective measure” directing the patient to seek defense and avoidance of.
This essay is intended to fill the gap in the discussion of humour in Rabindranath Tagore’s writings, particularly his short stories.

Freud- Spent his last days in England In 1933, the Nazis publicly burnt a number of Freud's books. In 1938, shortly after the Nazis annexed Austria, Freud left Vienna for London with his wife and daughter Anna. Freud had been diagnosed with cancer of the jaw in 1923, and underwent more than 30 operations. He died of cancer on 23 September 1939.
Freud in his topographical model never looked at the mind to be built up of a number of agencies or systems, but rather these were terms used in a very special way, and it is a further puzzle as to what precisely Freud wanted them to signify (Freud, 1923). Consciousness and unconsciousness are not inimical properties and they are not.
These diaristic episodes cannibalise feelings of trauma, pain, masochism and vulnerability, in a deviant display of dark humour. For example, beside one of Freud’s many amorous artefacts, a Narayait kneeling figure from Mexico, dated 100 BC-AD 250, is a short and snappy confession from Calle about the transformation of her breasts from flat.
