Descrição
The book explores the theme of self-analysis as a tool to address neuroses and promote personal growth. Through concrete examples, such as Clare's analysis, the author demonstrates how it is possible to identify and understand one's psychological patterns and confront inner resistances. The process of self-discovery is examined, with particular attention to the ability to break free from illusions, emotional dependencies, and defense mechanisms, fostering harmonious and autonomous personality development. While acknowledging the limits and challenges of self-analysis, the author emphasizes its transformative potential, especially for those with a basic understanding of psychoanalytic principles.
