Introduction [Psychology]
Psychology is a science that deals with mental processes and behaviors. It can show how and why people do the things they do, rational or irrational, how and why we lie to ourselves, and many other things. I am excited to write about this topic, for I am extremely interested in learning about the way people think, and why they think that way as opposed to another. I want to see how this field can help people live a life that they are happy to have instead of have some psychological problems. My blog will be different because it is written from the prospective of someone who has never really studied this subject, let alone a teenage girl. I am going off of information that I find, and think is interesting. Psychology can be a huge part in making someone happy. Depression, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Insomnia and many other psychological disorders can take away the life people want to live. Many people live with these disorders everyday and go without being diagnosed, and unfortunate things happen. Psychology has affected me personally because my best friend was diagnosed as being bipolar. It was a scary experience for her family especially, but me also. I was not used to seeing someone act in those ways and I was really worried about her. So researching about why people act this way could be really interesting; if no one knew why then there would be no helping this and her story could have ended way different. Like I said before I am really excited to be reading and writting about psychology, the disorders, and why they happen.
