Wtf is a Sandor Ferenczy... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A1ndor_Ferenczi

Sándor Ferenczi (7 July 1873 – 22 May 1933) was a Hungarian psychoanalyst, a key theorist of the psychoanalytic school and a close associate of Sigmund Freud.

Born Sándor Fränkel to Baruch Fränkel and Rosa Eibenschütz, both Polish Jews, he later magyarized his surname to Ferenczi.

As a result of his psychiatric work, he came to believe that his patients' accounts of sexual abuse as children were truthful, having verified those accounts through other patients in the same family. This was a major reason for his eventual disputes with Sigmund Freud.

Prior to this conclusion he was notable as a psychoanalyst for working with the most difficult of patients and for developing a theory of more active intervention than is usual for psychoanalytic practice. During the early 1920s, criticizing Freud's "classical" method of neutral interpretation, Ferenczi collaborated with Otto Rank to create a "here-and-now" psychotherapy that, through Rank's personal influence, led the American Carl Rogers to conceptualize person-centered therapy (Kramer 1995).

Ferenczi has found some favour in modern times among the followers of Jacques Lacan as well as among relational psychoanalysts in the United States. Relational analysts read Ferenczi as anticipating their own clinical emphasis on mutuality (intimacy), intersubjectivity, and the importance of the analyst's countertransference. Ferenczi's work has strongly influenced theory and praxis of the interpersonal-relational theory of American psychoanalysis, as typified by psychoanalysts at the William Alanson White Institute.

Ferenczi was president of the International Psychoanalytical Association from 1918 to 1919.

Ernest Jones, a biographer of Freud, termed Ferenczi as "mentally ill" at the end of his life, famously ignoring Ferenczi's struggle with pernicious anemia, which killed him in 1933. Though desperately ill with the then-untreatable disease, Ferenczi managed to deliver his most famous paper, "Confusion of Tongues"[1] to the 12th International Psycho-Analytic Congress in Wiesbaden, Germany, on 4 September 1932.[2][3]

Ferenczi's reputation was revived in 2002 by publication of Disappearing and Reviving: Sandor Ferenczi in the History of Psychoanalysis.[4] One of the book's chapters dealt with the nature of the relationship between Freud and Ferenczi.

Ahhhh,, hearsay, even better!!!

I suppose everything back then and before was hearsay though, it's not like we have video evidence of Caesar getting filleted by some pissed off senators.

Although now I don't necessarily believe what I see on video. It's all fake and gay.

Anyway, I was half ass kidding about the OP, there are so many quotes online that are fake it's hard to distinguish the genuine from the fakes and I am not gonna research all of them to find out.

To be fair, there's truth in freud's statement

Nowadays, there are countless mental disorders you just can't cure, all you can do is give pills to lesser the symptoms, tranquilizers, and keep a tab on patients in specialized institutions and that's about it. Medical science has its limits. And it was even more true back in freud's era, I mean it was the very beginning of psychiatry and psychoanalysis; all you can do is observe, take notes, investigate, make guess work, and make sure the patient doesn't hurt himself or others

So...

Absolutely, and when they figure out how to make real money off the mental nutjobs they will put real effort into figuring it out. In the mean time we will ignore most of it and even embrace lot's of it. If your 10 year old wants his dick cut off so he can be a girl you should just be fine with that. Do you suck at sports? Join the womens league and you can be number one!!!
