The Wolf Man (Sigmund Freud case study)

The Wolf Man was a case study by Sigmund Freud involving a man who believed he was a werewolf. Freud analyzed his childhood fears and feelings of guilt, suggesting his nightmares and behaviors reflected unresolved conflicts and repressed emotions. The case illustrates how early experiences can influence subconscious fears and how understanding these can help address psychological issues. Freud used this case to demonstrate the importance of exploring childhood memories and the unconscious mind in psychoanalytic therapy.
