Marshal Bruce Mathers III, also known as Eminem, was born with great talent and determination. He faced many challenges in his life but his determination and commitment led him to success. Eminem's life as a child was not easy as his father abandoned him when he was six months old. He lived with an abusive mother who never supported him and considered him a worthless human being. According to Han Eysencks. Eminem would be classified as an extrovert because he was very active and energetic. He loved talking to people and expressing his feelings. He was very talented and wanted to show the world that he could reach the top. Eminem became the king of rap and also a great actor. Eminem has faced some hardships throughout his life, but he hasn't let the problems get in his way. The psychoanalytic approach states that all people have internal struggles and that is what Eminem had to overcome to achieve his dreams. Freud's concept of Id, Ego and Superego showed that Eminem's Id seemed to control his life. His ego also used defense mechanisms to try to prevent Eminem from realizing his problems. According to Carl Jung, Eminem had a personality. He had dreams that sometimes separated him from reality.Keywords: persona, id, ego, superego, defense, psychoanalytic,Marshall Bruce Mathars III, famous under the name "Eminem", was born on October 17, 1972 in Saint Joseph, Missouri . Eminem comes from a mixed background. He is English, German and Polish. Eminem's mother is called Deborah R. Mathars-Briggs and his father's name is Marshall Bruce Mathars, Jr. Eminem's childhood was not pleasant as his parents were divorced and his father abandoned him when he was six months old . His mother was only 15 when she had him and was...... halfway there....... It was difficult for him to trust anyone easily. After all, she ended up cheating on him, which made Eminem angry. The idea of shooting Kim's lover would ruin his dreams. Eminem would spend the rest of his life in prison. Eminem was shocked that Kim managed to trick him. How could he trust anyone after that? I guess a person becomes naive when they trust too much and is heartbroken when that trust is gone. (Westerfil, 2012) In conclusion, I don't think Eminem has achieved self-realization because not all of his needs have been met. He also had some neurotic tendencies due to the fact that he lacked the love and support of his parents. At times he was isolated and alone, which caused him anxiety. All the theories mentioned above have been able to relate to Eminem's life and characterize certain behaviors and motivations.
