Answer 1

Freud’s ideas about the unconscious mind and repressed memories resonate with me when I consider how past experiences shape my daily decisions and emotional responses. For instance, I often find myself reacting to situations in ways that seem disproportionate, which I believe may stem from unresolved childhood conflicts, aligning with Freud's theories of early influences on behavior. Reflecting on these patterns encourages me to explore my unconscious motivations, helping me better understand my choices and emotional triggers in my adult life.
