Freud cracks me up with his wit:: he also discloses the risks of his practice (disclosure:: affect labeling in terms of identifying stimuli)

Freud in his introductory lecture series on the psychology of errors and psychoanalysis:

“…should I find anyone among you who does not feel satisfied with a cursory acquaintance with psychoanalysis, but who would like to enter into a more enduring relationship with it, I shall not only dissuade him, but I shall actually warn him against it. As things now stand, a person would, by such a choice of profession, ruin his every chance of success at a university, and if he goes out into the world as a practicing physician, he will find himself in a society which does not understand his aims, which regards him with suspicion and hostility, and which turns loose upon him all the malicious spirits which lurk within it.” .
