Lives of the Unconscious

Summary:

"That’s something that I’ve done? I don’t to remember that at all!"
The word repression has made a career for itself: even in our everyday language we speak of repressed feelings and memories. But what is it really all about? Is it true that one can really completely repress basic experiences? What role does repression play in our mental life and in therapy? This episode digs into the dark chambers of the psyche.
