Psychoanalysis defines mental illness as a result of unresolved unconscious conflicts, typically stemming from childhood experiences and repressed emotions. It posits that these conflicts manifest as symptoms, which can include anxiety, depression, or behavioral issues. By exploring these unconscious processes through techniques like free association and dream analysis, psychoanalysis aims to bring repressed thoughts and feelings to consciousness, facilitating healing and personal insight. Ultimately, mental illness is viewed as a disruption in the individual's psychic equilibrium, influenced by both internal drives and external relationships.

Mental illness is often influenced by social expectations, as cultural norms and societal beliefs can shape how symptoms are perceived and diagnosed. Certain behaviors may be deemed acceptable or unacceptable based on societal standards, which can affect whether individuals seek help or receive a diagnosis. However, mental illnesses are also rooted in biological and psychological factors, making their identification a complex interplay of individual experiences and societal context. Ultimately, while social expectations can play a role, they do not solely define mental illness.
