Psychoanalysis

is very time consuming and it does not provide required answers

quickly which is a practical disadvantage. Secondly people who do

this therapy may discover some memories that had originally been

repressed due to whatever reason which may cause more stress.

Lastly people who take part in these types of therapies must be

motivated as it requires a lot of time and money, sometimes people

just stop the therapy half way because they cannot cope with the

pressure which leads to inaccurate results and means that these

therapies are not very useful.
