The schizoid (African) type as a misfit for Freudian psychology

Normal in contemporary (bourgeois) society was hardly normal for me growing up as the nuclear family was not the fundamental political and social unit. It was just one of many. I consider myself very lucky to have been able to escape parental overfamiliarity and thus escape Freudian dynamics during my youth. After leaving my country of origin, my fortunes changed very much for the worse.
