Later years

As Freud continued his research he became more known, and with his books being released in 1900 and 1901 he began to spark more and more interest. Freud was critized by a lot of his peers, but he chose to disregard what anyone was saying and continue on his path. In 1930 he received the Goethe award in appreciation for his contribution to psychology and German literature. In 1939 he requested a friend of his to help him commit suicide through the use of morphine. On September 23, 1939 Freud died. Despite his death Freud has lived on in psychology and continues to be named the father of psychoanalysis.
