Psychoanalysis is the theory aiming to help or treat mental disorders by looking at the conscious and unconscious parts of the brain along with fears and repressed conflicts into the conscious mind such as dream interpretation. This one is especially interesting to me due to the fact that my two biggest fears seem really strange but have one thing in common. The first fear I have is getting abducted by aliens. The second is walking through a dark parking lot and have someone from under a car either stab or grab my ankle very hard. I think the element of surprise and the hopelessness of each is absolutely mortifying. I also think watching the 4th kind when I was 8 and realizing that no one can save me if I got abducted really sunk in.
