Dreams must be taken literally. Dreams in psychoanalysis #4 with Dr. Leon Brenner

In the fourth video of our "Dreams in psychoanalysis" series, Dr. Leon Brenner discusses the complexity of dream analysis in Freud's famous case of Butcher's witty wife. Are dreams, after all, only dreams? Is it important to engage in dream analysis? If so, how does one navigate in the twists and turns of the royal road to the unconscious?

    Good presentation! Yes, Lacan analysis this dream and the desire laying behind it in his article (1955).

    I must inquire about differing types of dreams. Did Freud distinguish between dreams that speak to simple conflicts that express issues we all have in daily life, and more complex dreams containing dream symbols that no one can easily understand or interpret? Jung wrote about dreams from the Collective Unconscious. How did Freud differentiate between common dreams and Profound dreams. If I were a researcher I would look it up, but I call myself a Generalist who attempts to stay current on economics, international geopolitical events, financial markets. and more. Time is of essence, always.

    Thank you for the video. Very interesting. I had some questions about approximately the first half of the video. 1. Isn't the therapist taking the stance of knowing what the dream means, even when just hypothesizing? Why hypothesize at all, why not just explore and let the patient get there? 2. Is there a problem with asking questions about a dream? It seems it might put the analyst in a leading role. The patient must comply and come up with an answer.

    I am not personally a trained psychoanalyst, but here is my view on the issue: 1. It is not about "taking stance of knowing WHAT dream means", but rather presumption that dream has MEANING at all. Hence the hypothesizing, trying to decipher what was actually being said.

    In my view, WISH ought to be eliminated entirely, since it has taken hold of the public's understanding of the purpose of dreams. Desire is more honest and descriptive of unconscious needs and secret desires.

    Dream. Free Association. Context. Formulate Hypothesis. Free Association. Update Hypothesis. Free Association. Finalise hypothesis. Next. Treatment.

    Sadly, few individuals would have interest in following the thought process of this speaker. The speaker is fine; the seriousness of dreams is over the heads of typical Americans. This is the reason for potential evaluation and education of interested parties. Psychoanalysis is not for the masses. Perhaps this is the reason for all new therapies, designed to get people past "rough spots" in their lives. PA is the only method for an entire reconstruction of one's life, once all the kinks are worked through via the process of the Talking Cure and Dream Analysis. And yes, although, successful treatment can occur, self observation becomes an ongoing process, as long as normal thinking capabilities are in place.

    Why am I the only one that is such a Chatterbox? Am I seeking attention, or am I simply too curious?

    Dream has occurred due to circumstances framing to a target person..one example.

    In the 21st century,dream has a meaning,but all dreams are not interpretable in my viewpoint..we need to filter our dream,( which has imp to the dreamer,after asking many questions to the dreamer).

    Your understanding of Freud's Interpretation is false, because Freud's Interpretation is wrong. Correct interpretation: the patient wishes to share her husband with her friend in a threesome. After all, salmon and caviar, sturgeon, are fish. "We are all fish, i.e. women." The unsatisfied desire is a bisexual threesome. Psychoanalysis has failed, just like its older brother philosophy, because thinking is not an imitative art; it cannot be learned and taught methodically, via Mimesis.
