- Anxiety is a state where a person may feel that something is wrong and will experience symptoms like palpitation, rapid heart rate, sweaty palms, and dry throat.
- Two types of anxiety in Freud’s theory are:
- Neurotic anxiety: Here, id and ego are in conflict with each other
- Moral anxiety: Here, the superego and ego are in conflict with each other
For your understanding
- Neurotic anxiety comes from the unconscious fear that the basic impulses of the id will take control of the person, leading to eventual punishment from expressing the id’s desires.
- Moral anxiety comes from the superego. It appears in the form of fear of violating moral codes or values, leading to feelings of guilt and shame.
