(Adapted from Corey) The case of Fred: “Most of my life I have felt pushed and pulled. My father pushed me into school, sports, and so forth, and over the years my resentment grew for him, as he was always directing and controlling my life and beating me when I challenged his authority. My mother always gave me a warm, unconditional love and tried to pull me under her protective wing, which is something I have always resisted. My parents divorced when I was 16, and without parental control I began a life of permissiveness in my relationships with women and in my use of psychedelic drugs and marijuana. On graduating from college, I rejected my father’s wishes to pursue a career and returned to school to seek another degree. In some ways it’s just a place to be that I like. Most of my life revolves around living for today, a hedonistic style that has no concreteness of goals and aspirations, with a lack of definition of `what a man should be.’ I float in and out of people’s lives. They see an image of me as a despoiler of women, a drug freak, and a cold bastard. My fear is that I am nothing more than that image, that I am empty inside. I want to be able to open up and let people see the warmer, more sensitive sides of me, but I have terrible difficulty doing that. I have a strong need to become close and intimate with others, yet I never let myself become vulnerable because I fear being dependent on them and trapped by their love” Please respond to the following questions; keep in mind that we are not seeking ideas about treatment, but rather a deeper understanding of the individual’s personality and how they have come to be who they present to us.

1. Freud’s Psychoanalytic Approach
According to Freud’s Psychoanalytic Approach the mind is responsible for both
conscious and unconscious decisions (De Sousa, 2011). There are several concepts in the
Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory that apply to the case of Fred;
Concept 1: The unconscious mind
I believe this concept applies in this case since we see Fred making decisions, judgments,
behavior, and feelings from the influence of mental processes that are inaccessible to the
consciousness. Most of Fred's feelings, motives and behaviors are influenced by his experience
which is stored in the unconscious. For instance, much as Fred would wish to open up to people
about his problems and perhaps be intimate, he cannot be able bec...
