I am very impressed with this man; he's a great teacher. I enjoyed his 6-lecture series on the history of psychoanalysis. I worked in a psychoanalytically oriented department of Psychiatry and some of our supervising professors were echte Freudians. I am fascinated by the differences between the European analysts and the Americans--to the disadvantage of the Americans.
Thank you so much for the work you're doing to make psychoanalytic processes and concepts more available. Aleksandar is fantastic at conveying the intricacies interwoven throughout psychoanalytic history and accepted practices today.
You cannot go into mental ilnesses the way Lacan does. You have to have some kind of connection with the pain of others. And this connection shows in your work. Intelect is not enough. Thank you!
Hello, is Dr Aleksandar Dimitrijevic part of the team? I wanted to know what his experience was in working with The Centre for the Study of Substructed Loss. I am looking at my individuation process (after taking a look at my artwork within clinics for Depressive and psychotic cycles over a period of 8 years) and considering formalizing this process at the Centre.
@@aleksandardimitrijevic4666 Thank you so much for getting back to me. I can't find your email on the channel info. Here is mine : hello@yvettehess.com. I look forward to your reply.
So if the images are represt, why would it make sense to allow them into consciousness ? Why do the images itself try to come into consciousness ? How does any of subconsciousness ever resolve in a way positive. It seems like once negative experience are had, they maybe forgotten but if remembered they will again feel negative. Besides, the unconsciousness seems never disappear completely, would an ideal consciousness have no unconscious ?
I find the emphasis on the contents of our mind (conscious and unconscious) consisting of mental images (Vorstellungen) a bit odd and clearly very influenced by the Cartesian picture of the mind. If I have a desire to kill my father either consciously or unconsciously, this does not mean that I have to have a mental image of me committing this act! But obviously I am not suggesting that dreams do not involve (mental) images :-)
Thank you for your teaching!

Hi Rod! Thank you for your very kind words. We are very glad to hear that you enjoy the content!

Thank you!
Thank you for these wonderful lectures. Very insightful and helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant. Fascinating.
Wonder if the barrier between conscious and unconcious could be breached by intense feelings, deliberately.
Amazing, thank you!
We are glad you find it helpful!
Excellent! Can you point us towards anything books or journals that defends repression against the arguments and research of Elizabeth Loftus?

When you say "being very close to someone" allowing us to possibly access to the unconscious, do you mean emotionally close?

Freud genius
I thought this would had a Lacanian spin
I am sorry if you are disappointed. I am sure you can find a lot of Lacanian spin elsewhere.
