The self - analysis is a technique used to study the sóciobiofísicopsíquico be through records (writing, recording ...) made by him and analyzed with the aid of any Psychoanalyst, which binds to the psychoanalytic technique, although it is possible to proceed to a self-analysis through other forms of analysis, at the discretion of the therapist and client, or simply a brief therapies for change in these situations, but deeper into the origin of values, and catéxicos axiológicas.

The technical analysis of the mental, or self analysis, is based on that patient records about themselves, their context and their experiences.

The analytic therapy, and by extension the self analysis, provides a thorough understanding of the reasons and causes of this mental and psychological performance. Provides a more conscious in the middle of action, greater understanding of the experiences, lessons learned, mistakes and reactions present, viewing with more lightness and outlining their own future, which was built (or destroyed) in the past, reaching the threshold of knowledge and consciousness of self, the character and individual identity.

The self - analysis has its foundation and roots in psychoanalytic technique used by its creator, Sigmund Freud, when he used for the formulation of concepts and practice of their theory and techniques. Preface to the book "The pratical selfanalysis method of enabling a person to remove unreasoning fears and depression from his mind" of E. Pickworth Farrow, 1942, the earnestly recommends "... because tenaciously apply the process of self examination, I even used to analyze my own dreams ...."

In an analysis of adaptation to emerging days of virtuality, as individuation cultural self-centered, self analysis and finding the harmony of human maturity, based upon the analysis of the field aware of the psychological experience and research and systematic analysis of what Freud identified as "unconscious ", Through which the record is about you and allowing flow through lapses, imperfect acts and free associations.

The field of conscious experience the psychic covering memories, the "parties" that removes the brain as "workable" by the person who is subjected, ie covers what we are able to face alone and being able to bear.

What Freud defined as "unconscious" is a bit more complex, because it is an ocean deep, viscous, dark and pulsating, content forgotten, lost or suppressed by past psychological trauma, emotional triggers for unwanted by traumatic experiences, who fought to avoid. Content that the brain, or we tried to hide from our consciousness because, if played, triggering storms that we have no certainty that we can lull without help. Tensions are terrible and painful, of neurotic inhibitions of hidden anxieties of threatening attacks of exaltações incomprehensible emotional (although fruit of experience pregressas), finally a dangerous baggage, liable to rash and uncontrollable explosion, we are forced to load and that , Constantly, interfere in a major way in our life.

Auto analysis works with the free association, the lapses and failures acts within the strict understanding of Freud and his second analysis methods of assessment, however it is based on self records. It is flexible and allows itself to determine the degree of self analysis analyzing the second act, it is worth, then to other therapies, linked to knowledge of psychoanalysis.

The Self-examination is recorded by the patient, deals with graphics (writing, recording, filming ...), the criterion of self analyzing, posed or not to the Psychoanalyst, which can be found sporadically or virtual, as a technique psychoanalysis, systematizing the technical evaluation.

Auto analysis is of much value to those who seek knowledge and deep understanding of self, inner development and psychological maturity, they also serve as an alternative to the work of neuroses, leading to sources of disruption and psychological trauma, focusing on understanding and overcoming them.

If the ultimate goal of all analysis is the perception by the patient, of itself, we can say without a doubt, that the whole purpose of the analysis is the self analysis, and what she is capable of: the unravel the unconscious and overcoming the trauma found and worked for by the patient himself, the object of existence and practice self-analysis.
