Sigmund Freud Sigmund Freud was born May 6, 1856 in the Moravian town of Pribor, now present day Czech Republic. He was born into a poor family but despite their poverty they ensured him an education. He was a prestigious student at the top of his class in high school. When he got to college he became very interested in neurology. He specialized in neurology and opened his very own medical practice. He studied many different types of neurology and began to come up with his own theories of how the human mind works. Freud died in September of 1939 after suffering from severe cancer. Freud had many concepts on personality and how it works. He believed that traumatic experiences had an especially strong effect on your character. He believed in the concept of fixation which gives each problem at each stage a long-term effect in terms of our personality or character. In Freud’s view personality arises from a conflict between our aggressiveness, pleasure-seeking urges, and our internalized social control over these urges. To explain these in more detail Freud proposed three interacting systems: the id, ego, and superego. All three of these affect our personality by interacting with one another to shape the person we are. He also came up with the personal development theories which involve a series of stages that occur early in life (psychosexual stages, oedipus complex, identification, and fixate). He also had theories on defense mechanics which was Freud’s interpretation on how people defended themselves against anxiety. This included repression, regression, reaction formation, projection, and rationalization. We use these defense mechanics to control our sexual and aggressive impulses. Sigmund Freud had many concepts on personality development and his ideas are still believed in today.
