" (Freud, 1937, p. 373) This is to say that, from Freud's perspective, it had been historically the presumption of the therapy process that the speed with which one was treated and addressed was to a high priority. To this point, it had previously been seen that those who defied treatment with this level of expediency were beyond the reach of therapeutic methods. Freud discounted this position, instead making the primary argument that the length of time for some patients could be seen as necessarily prolonged. Indeed, Freud even points to the likelihood that some subjects would benefit from an interminable course of therapy in which regular consultation could help to alleviate the pressures of one's psychological discord, could help to probe to its sources or could help to provide the subject with coping mechanisms to be referred to when encountering episodic symptoms of the condition.
