Sigmund Freud Talks About His Psychology Work in the 1880s-1890s: Remastered Audio

I started my professional activity as a neurologist trying to bring relief to my neurotic patients. Under the influence of an older friend and by my own efforts, I discovered some important new facts about the unconscious in psychic life, the role of instinctual urges, and so on. Out of these findings grew a new science, psychoanalysis, a path of psychology, and a new method of treatment of the neurosis. I had to pay heavily for this myth of good luck. People did not believe in my facts and thought my theories unsavoury. Resistance was strong and unrelenting. In the end, I succeeded in acquiring Putin and building up an international psychoanalytic association. But the struggle is not yet over. At the age of 82, I left my home in Vienna following the German invasion and came to England, where I hoped to end my life in freedom. My name is Sigmund Freud.
