Nobody overrates him aside from marxist inclined continental philosophers.
To psychologist, he's basically an alchimist. Sure he might have gotten something right but most of what he thought was garbage.

it wasn't garbage. I feel like you faggots try to apply the way of thinking from other fields to psychology and it doesn't work, retard.

Underrated as a literary figure. He has not been overrrated since the 60s in terms of clinical psychology. Reading him is a joy, morbid but with a rye humanity.

*rewrites Little Hans' brain to prove his psychoanalytic theories about castration anxiety without an ounce of self-skepticism*
pshhhhtt... nothin personnel, kid...

The Freud hate and epic "HAHA LOL FREUDD AM I RITE???" meme in psychology is embarrassing and totally a conceited attempt to dissociate itself from one of its most important theorists though.

The rest who are interested in the reasons behind mental illness instead of selling goy pills and CBT repression of unconscious problems do not dismiss Freud as much as the former

Is there even anything in Freud's theories worth salvaging? The only good thing that came out of his treatments was that they provided a space for people to talk freely about their problems without much judgement, a sort of secularized confessional. Not much more than that.

Yeah it totally isn't a product of a century of epistemological debates haha you're right those frigging psychologists are just brainwashed morons and everyone who disagrees with Freud is just a clueless positivist trying to sell pills to dumb people hahahahahaha

Not what I said. I'm talking about the attitude and culture. The casual petty stuff that sort of grows over the results of hard-won battles. Some psych textbooks appear to try to mention Freud as little as possible, which is ludicrous. A lot of those important epistemological developments come from reaction to Freud & Co. It's a pathology, self-doubt. Shameful past.

This. His biggest contribution is the new way of thinking that spiraled in the science we have today. Freud is praised for his method, not all the motherfucking bullshit.

Some people in continental philosophy, who tend to be marxist, keep using freudian ideas even if they're completely debunked, yes.

No, to anyone who cares about evidence based practice.

This. Psychology shouldn't be embarrassed by Freud. Freud's like Plato in a way, it feels underwhelming to anyone who has an education in the field, but the fact that much of what came after Freud was a reaction to both him and depth psychology in general is reason enough for his ideas to still be taken up.

he actually did alot. With many of these types, such as Jung as well. Their better contributions, get kind of overshadowed by all the dumb shit they did.
