The Decision to Turn Your Ear to Freud

Dora's mother has a quote unquote housewife psychosis. She makes everything in the house impossible to enjoy. How did that affect Dora? I think it made her crazy. And she had no woman to look up to. Her case casting his wife aside. So all the women are thrown under the bus, basically. The deal was a way of acting out or a way of communicating. It's in a way sickness is the only way to communicate.
