The Psychoanalytical method’s focus upon the release of anxieties perfectly addresses the emotional needs of humans. The need to release information to feel better is a necessity. When children return from a day away at school they recount the occurrences of their past eight hours, when a couple returns from their separate days they inform their pair of the details of their day. This moment, when shared between two people, acts as both an intimate moment of bonding, and as a therapeutic end to their public day. When people are in the unfortunate situation of being burdened by an occurrence that is too potent to discuss alongside an intimate bonding moment, or if they feel their relationships do not have sufficient intimacy to share any occurrence despite it’s blandness or its intensity. This approach addresses mental health through therapy. A person, who is in some need for the release of their anxieties, would lie on an Persian carpet covered chaise lounge, while their therapist or analyst sits in a chair positioned in a way that it does not appear visible to the patient. The method not only provides a situation where the situation feels safe enough and alone enough to reveal whatever they feel necessary but it also allows the analyst to note on their patients anxieties without feeling any pressure to respond to their exclamations. This method is the most effective at making people comfortably get either simultaneous medical and psychotherapy, or go through a process where the basic release of their anxieties is helping to reduce their overall mental distress.
