In the movie Mean Girls we can explore diffrent types of psychology issues. For example, we see how Cady transforms from this shy, kind, and smart girl to a mean girl throughout the movie. Cady’s Ego wants so badly to be notice and popular, which make her take impulsive actions. Cady later learns that she has to confront her self-esteem and not let herself be insecure. Her Superego  plays in by demonstrating that she doesn’t have to leave her morals and appear/act differently to be notice and be herself.

The Plastics also display psychology issues. For instance, their defense mechanism tool is to aggressively bully and put others down, to avoid their unpleasant emotions. Like Regina for example might seem in the movie like she has the most perfect life, but in reality she is very insecure about herself. The plastics narcissistic personality  it shown by them pointing out each others faults and ugliness. Their unconscious doesn’t let them see that “beauty” isn’t what they see in T.V/society.

Lastly, in this movie you may encounter some Libido reactions. For example, there was a point in the movie where Cady made it seem that she didn’t know a math problem to be able to attract a boys attention. Her reaction shows her sexual motives because she acted like someone she wasn’t just to get his attention.   Furthermore, The Plastics maintain their popularity status by acting sexual and being desired by everyone. By acting sexual everyone they manipulate guys to do mean things for them so they won’t get caught. And of course the guys will agree and say yes because they desire The Plastics. So they use their sexuality to their advantage.
