The full quote reads: “Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by assholes.”
, and on Twitter, but sometimes with variations that replace the word “assholes” with “jerks”:
"Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, surrounded by jerks." -FreudIt seemed unlikely, just based on the language, that these were the words of an Austrian man who lived during the 19th and early-20th century. Our readers asked us about the origins of this quote, and we found that it was not in fact Freud who said it, but possibly just a person on the internet.
We reached out to the Sigmund Freud Museum in Vienna, and a spokesperson confirmed that, “There is no written evidence nor any other reliable source confirming that this would be a Freud quote. Also the wording speaks against Sigmund Freud.” The spokesperson added that this question had come up before, and that the quote had circulated on social media for a few years.
We also reached out to the Sigmund Freud Archives and the Library of Congress’ archives containing Freud’s writings. We will update this post if more information becomes available.
