Question by HelloBeautiful731: Depression and SAD are affecting me in school, please help!??!?
So a few months ago I asked this question in the mental health section but didn’t get too many answers. It is unlikley anyone here understands but here we go..thanks for any answers:)
I have been getting F’s in my core classes all this year. Mid term just passed and my teachers have been constantly yelling at me to the point of me crying.
They told my dad that if i dont start getting A’s and B’s that i either have to get held back or go to a alternative school an hour away!!
Its not that im dumb but these things ive developed have really been affecting me.
Before you say get help, its not possible. My family probably cant afford counceling and wouldn’t believe me anyways. If i bring it up i just get the whole “oh its just adolescents”.

Question by Cristina: What are the Strengths and Limitations of psychoanalytic theory?

Best answer:

Answer by SieglindeDieNibelunge
Psychoanalytic theory provides many answers about family dynamics, the struggle between the “Id” (your basic desires), “Ego” (your conscious self) and the “Superego” (your conscience, or sense of right and wrong”. It can help you figure out why your neuroses keep you from being happy and fulfilled and how certain negative thoughts arose.

But what it is NOT good for is changing behavior. It was once thought that the “Behavioral” school of therapy (using types of conditioning and reinforcement) would solve everything but it has many flaws.

The most promising way so far, of changing negative thought patterns and behaviors is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, in which positive thoughts are practiced and substituted for negative ones. A new type of therapy, “ACT” (Acceptance, Commitment Therapy), is the latest outgrowth of this and has been quite successful in treating things like low-self-esteem, addictions and phobias, which traditional psychoanalytic therapy does not do very well.
