Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Torrey offers insights about his life and what shapes his career as psychiatrist. According to him, his life and career were largely shaped by four seminal experiences. He recounts the psychotic breakdown of his sister in 1957 at the age of 18, his experiences spending two years in Ethiopia as a Peace Corps physician prior to my training in psychiatry, and his affiliation at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in 1970 after completing my psychiatric residency.
