From emotionally crippled to loving personality | George Vaillant | TEDxAmsterdam 2014 (SIGN LANG.)

www.tedxamsterdam.com As a psychiatrist and professor at Harvard Medical School and the Director of Research at the Department of Psychiatry, George Eman Vaillant M.D. has a lot of duties. To add to them, he has been responsible for the Grant Study, the longest longitudinal study of human development ever undertaken. Since 1938, this study has been keeping a very close eye on 200 diverse men. One of the men, Godfrey Camille, was particularly interesting. Emotionally crippled and lonely as a youngster, Godfrey was accustomed to exhibiting negative coping styles like hypochondria, narcissism and displacement. All of these emotional issues took a toll on him in life, making it difficult for him to truly connect to others. However at the time of his death, he was 82 and in the middle of an active game of squash. At the time of his death, he was a retired medical doctor with his own practice, a devoted husband and an exemplary father. His memorial service was packed with mourning friends. His children described him as a man who lived a very simple life, full of very rich relationships. Watch the TEDxAmsterdam talk by George Vaillant and learn what brought on this huge change in the personality of Godfrey.
