We meet a very similar difficulty in the theory of dreams , which in our previous discussion of the dream I could not go into . The manifest content of dreams is most profuse and individually varied , and I have shown very explicitly what analysis may glean from this content . But side by side with these dreams there are others which may also be termed " typical " and which occur similarly in all people . These are dreams of identical content which offer the same difficulties for their interpretation as the typical symptom . They are the dreams of falling , flying , floating , swimming , of being hemmed in , of nakedness , and various other anxiety dreams that yield first one and then another interpretation for the different patients , without resulting in an explanation of their monotonous and typical recurrence . In the matter of these dreams also , we see a fundamental groundwork enriched by individual additions . Probably they as well can be fitted into the theory of dream life , built up on the basis of other dreams , — not however by straining the point , but by the gradual broadening of our views . EIGHTEENTH LECTURE GENERAL THEORY OF THE NEUROSES Traumatic Fixation — The Unconscious ISAID last time that we would not continue our work from the standpoint of our doubts , but on the basis of our results . We have not even touched upon two of the most interesting conclusions , derived equally from the same two sample analyses . In the first place , both patients give us the impression of being fixated upon some very definite part of their past ; they are unable to free themselves therefrom , and have therefore come to be completely estranged both from the present and the future . They are now isolated in their ailment , just as in earlier days people withdrew into monasteries there to carry along the burden of their unhappy fates . In the case of the first patient , it is her marriage with her husband , really abandoned , that has determined her lot . By means of her symptoms she continues to deal with her husband ; we have learned to understand those voices which plead his case , which excuse him , exalt him , lament his loss . Although she is young and might be coveted by other men , she has seized upon all manner of real and imaginary ( magic ) precautions to safeguard her virtue for him . She will not appear before strangers , she neglects her personal appearance ; furthermore , she cannot bring herself to get up readily from any chair on which she has been seated . She refuses to give her signature , and finally , since she is motivated by her desire not to let anyone have anything of hers , she is unable to give presents .
