Social Sciences - Psychology / Book on Freud
English term or phrase: "forced its way through"
Hola a todos:

Tengo esta expresión cuyo significado conozco pero no me sale ninguna traducción válida. Os agradecería vuestra ayudita.

In the first place: a small bit of my self-analysis
Has forced its way through, and confirmed that phantasies are products of later periods and are projected back from the then present on to the earliest child-hood, and the manner in which this occurs has also emerged - once more a verbal link. To the question: ‘what happened in earliest childhood?’ the answer is ‘nothing’

Gracias de antemano.

Saludos,
N.

se abrió camino
Explanation:
Quizás "se abrió camino" pueda servirte. También se usa "marcó su propio camino", pero creo que se puede malinterpretar en algunos contextos.

Explanation:
Si la frase es: "a small bit of my self-analysis has forced its way through", yo diría algo así como:

"se ha impuesto (en mí) una pequeña parte de mi autoanálisis..."
