Born on May 6, 1856, in Austria, Sigmund Freud went on to become a neurologist and the father of psychoanalysis. According to the American Psychological Association (APA), psychoanalysis is a form of therapy that works to get to the root cause of people’s problems. To do this, the International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA) reported that this practice looks at the “unconscious manifestations in a person’s life” and at what influenced them.
As you can imagine, a lot of Freud’s theories were offensive to many (and still are today), but no one can deny how his ideas permeated through pop culture, Western culture and psychology as we know them today, even if psychoanalysis has declined in regards to diagnostic and clinical practices.

This quote appears in the 1960 book Letters of Sigmund Freud, selected and edited by Ernst L. Freud; it’s a collection of letters Freud sent to many different people, from Albert Einstein to H.G. Wells and more.
“Let us found our journal. People will grumble, buy and read it. One day in retrospect the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.”
He and Jung were longtime collaborators until they split due to differing ideas regarding psychology in 1913, as Britannica reported. Jung came up with the concept of analytical psychology, which differed from Freud’s psychoanalytic theory, placing more emphasis on immediate conflicts rather than childhood traumas or issues, per Britannica.
When you’re going through a tough time—whether that’s the loss of a job, the death of someone close to you or you’re going through a particularly rough patch at work or in your relationship—it can be hard to see how you will get through it. You can’t even remember what life was like before your hardship, sometimes, so how are you supposed to imagine happier, better times ahead? Because of this, it can be really easy to get swallowed up by your despair, falling into a depression or anxiety spiral.
While it might not apply to all situations without it sounding like toxic positivity, there are definitely a lot of scenarios that you might look back on and be thankful for your struggles and see your hardships as beautiful. Or at the very least, you might look back on them fondly or see them as not as bad as they were when you were in the thick of it. And having that reminder might be what you need to keep going to find yourself on the other side of an anxious or disastrous circumstance.
