Sigmund Freud-A great psychiatrist














Sigmund Freud
was one of the most famous psychologists who has ever existed. He was responsible for shaping the field of psychology and especially Narco analysis during his lifetime. His philosophy towards psychology was simply amazing and his studies involving subjects were totally different from the usual patterns of his days. He proposed several controversial theories such as the Cappgraff syndrome and the Oedipus syndrome which was not accepted by even one psychologist of his time! But, it has been found by extensive experimental research that the proposed theories of Freud were absolutely true. Freud approached each of his patient’s and the problems of psychology on a whole with the view point that each of man’s actions is sexually directed and sex plays a major role in deciding the course of a man’s actions. This approach of Freud was totally new at his time and was not received well. But, with experimental results, similar to Narco analysis, this concept and approach of Freud was also accepted widely by psychologists. Freud is perhaps rightly credited to have been the greatest psychologist who has ever lived. His Narco analysis technique is still being used in present day police interrogation techniques to pull out the truth from hardened criminals!
