Fear, Folly & Freud

Feeling psychologically stuck, author Nicola Mendenhall ventured into what turned out to be Freudian Analysis–which is the study of what the patient does not want to know and resists mightily. She was well into a decade of analysis before she realized how counter-productive, actually funny, her attitudes and behavior were. Readers are given access to the unconscious as it presents itself to the author and often can figure out what is going within her on before the author does.
