Freud was a neuroscientist not a philosopher. Also his real name was Schlomo and his dad was a literal merchant. Look it up.

Psychology was born out of Philosophy of mind. Which is why all of the old school philosophers had liberal arts educations, and make so much reference to myth and symbolism.

Phychology is a joke.

It's basically a field that revolves in finding patterns in behavior.
Which is not only unreliable as fuck (false positives, increased by bias of researcher) but also doesn't teach you anything.

To truly understand behavior we have to look at biology.

Theories, based on observations.
It's science.
Everything is hypothesis.

yes, it's a complete joke, freud is a retard just like every other philosopher who tries to make anything meaningful. Academically, philosophy is good for developing critical thought and has artistic merit. Beyond that, anything it tries to offer is useless. (note the "academically" - science and mathematics are philosophy in the broad sense, as are many things, I am referring to the content and dumbshit certain figures within academia have "developed").

All are extremely vague concepts, which are more or less just part of language and not actually real.
