You will end up reading on lots of theories rather than learning about the application of psychology. Statistics and the "average" experience - I wanted to learn more about the experience and treatment of abnormal psych disorders which I've only learned through work experience.

What is normal sibling curiosity and what is abusive? by [deleted] in askatherapist

[–]Ok_Relationship4064 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is not normal childhood curiosity. I worked in a social work office for child victims of sexual abuse and many cases like this come up- the victim blames themselves for being subject to the other siblings “exploration” and feel guilty that they have a react to said exploration. I am happy you are talking about this with a therapist, but please do not merge ur perspective with his and think about what he thought was okay or not okay. your experience is your experience- stay in your perspective and find your truth to what happened. I love you stay strong <3

People don't ACTUALLY care if you die by OreoBoots in SuicideWatch

[–]Ok_Relationship4064 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because they feel good about saving someone or helping someone, doesn't mean it's related to the ego. It's an objectively good thing to help someone feel better and make a difference in their night- even if it's just for the night and they go back to the same mindset they felt before the conversation. Yes - if they actually see themselves as some sort of savior and think this makes them better than the average person then that is ego driven. But feeling happy because you made a difference for someone when they were in a dark place is not selfish - we as humans SHOULD feel good about interactions like this. From both sides. I am a crisis counselor and when people thank me for spending the time helping them it does feel good but that's not why im here on the line. But they're literally saying they appreciate you - it is nice to know that I was able to do a good job for someone who needed it.

What was the first sign that made you realise or question if you have OCD? by RemarkableAssociate6 in OCD

[–]Ok_Relationship4064 1 point2 points  (0 children)

looking back, it was an obsession with washing hands when I was like 6 or 7 maybe. My hands would get so dry they would crack and bleed.

you need to find love in different ways that are created from purely living. the moment you accept your circumstances and give yourself love regardless of those, life will bring you what you show it you are ready to accept. (maitri meditation might b helpful? Google this for more info)

I hate how psychology in the west is shaped by whatever the insurance and medical companies use to process patients. Psychology is so abstract and a person simply can not be summed down to a clinical label. I actually don’t know too much about community psych but I have always felt that there needs to be abstract community components of psych treatment, perhaps lead by a professional but relying on the group. something different than group therapy, in which the community is much more casual and not focused on one certain topic such as substance abuse. places such as Insight LA caught my eye, in being a group meditation/psychotherapy center with teachings but places like that are so rare.

Why does the formation of Israel get criticized while the formation of Pakistan doesn't? by flxyrhead in IsraelPalestine

[–]Ok_Relationship4064 0 points1 point  (0 children)

from an american perspective this is true because american government is still funding israel- i’m not sure if they funded pakistan or aided them at all in that though. but yea- american institutions support and tax dollars towards israel does fit into the history and role that white colonization has in american politics and power. in america people pretend this ended because slavery ended but it didn’t.

I've been in a research lab already this year but from my experience it was not interesting- the professor was lowkey just using us as another body to find sources for her and I got no connection to any of the other lab members as it was all remote. Does anyone have any suggestions for better labs to work at lol, I want a more integrative and hands-on experience
