Application of Freudian Dynamics

Upon explaining Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory, I will list three different experiences that apply these concepts. Firstly, I am frustrated with the fact that I want to purchase a house and I can’t do it because my salary is not enough. I used to live in Miami, Florida with my husband and five children.

Also, my part-time job in our local college from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. is a mere 15 minutes away from home.
