He worked alone due to the shocking nature of his theories regarding sexual energies. Then in 1906 he was joined by Eugen Bleuler, Jung, William Stekel, Otto Rank, Abraham Brill, and Alfred Adler amoung others. In 1908 the "Wednesday Society" became the Viennese Association of Psychoanalysis.

The psychoanalytic movement became increasingly popular. Due to this recognition a worldwide organization called the International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA) was founded in 1910. The psychoanalytical magazine 'Imago' was founded in 1912. Adler, in 1911 and Jung in 1913 left the Viennese Association of Psychoanalysis to form their own schools of psychology. The primary catalyst for this was Freud's emphasis on sexual origins of neurosis.
