Welcome back to the second article in my unintentionally newly developed series: “A Therapist’s Daughter.” I have been traumatized, and I will make sure that you are as well! Just kidding, me and my mother have a healthy relationship, and I know that because once again, being a therapist is passed down hereditarily.
Anyways, recently, I was laying in bed, trying and failing to fall asleep, and I was jolted awake due to the resurgence of one of my most troublesome and closely guarded memories that I will now share with the public readership of Her Campus: I had a Freudian Slip once. I was in the third grade, and I called my teacher “mom” when I asked to go to the bathroom. I know, it is a shameful and completely unique experience. While deeply horrifying in the moment, I am finally mustering up the courage to laugh at myself. After all, the teacher probably doesn’t think about it anymore, and it happened in a time before cell phones could take videos. Luckily, a lot of Freudian Slips from popular culture have been immortalized by video technology, so I am going to rank my top three personal favorites for you all today in order to downplay my own mistake.
