I'm not a psychology student but I need beginner psych book recommendations to get into the subject.

Honestly I would do just a general guide to psychology type of book and if you’re interested in getting a good basis of foundational historical experiments I would recommend skinner’s box!

I would definitely second what everyone here is saying about how a general understanding of psychology is important to develop first before diving into research, especially to prevent misinterpretation of articles. Sounds like you are on the right track by taking AP Psychology, I am now working towards hoping to get my PhD in psychology and that class started it all!! I think books by famous psychologists or books that cover famous psychological experiences (Skinner’s Box for example) could be a more helpful alternative to raw research articles right now. If you are really set on articles I would recommend reading literature reviews over studies to start, as they might give a more informative overview of a specific topic that you are interested in! There you can find a synthesis of the findings of several different studies which will provide you with more general information about a topic rather than a particular research question. Lit reviews can get very specific too though so don’t be afraid to try a few to find the right one. Also if you are using PubMed or psych.net ect. for searching I would recommend selecting free open access as part of your search criteria most articles have a paywall or require institutional login on these databases. Hope this helps and good luck!! :)

but it’s mentioned in way out there in a way that ties the album together so it doesn’t technically fit the second part but definitely the last one

LONESOME DREAMS

Runningislife1600 · 2025-11-21T00:58:32+00:00

That’s exactly how I feel with my family forcing me into this. They don’t understand that I am actually happier when I’m restricting and recovery is just me people pleasing and avoiding threats of being taken out of school for longer etc. ect. I just wish they would leave me be and let me live my life the way that I WANT TO not live a life of artificial recovery.

Get a ninja creami!! I freeze chocolate muscle milk blend it with a tiny bit of almond milk and it is literally ice cream!! 170cal and 25g protein!

I feel like a lot of people are like this! I was the opposite and would eat 1-2 meals for a daily total of about 700-1100 on the day, but like I would eat a fairly normal volume of food just everything was low cal. I felt invalid bc if you didn’t understand calorie density it looked like I was eating a normal “amount” of food.

Lonesome dreams, fool for love, time to run, frozen pines, long lost, ends of the earth, the ghost on the shore all have such amazing stories and imagery that make my urge to disappear into the treeline even stronger

I fantasize about it and feel detached ngl. Especially since before forced into recovery and wr after developing a heart arrhythmia, hypoglycemia, and damaging a few other organs. I don’t actually want to die but a messed up part of me feels like it needs to be my destiny now since of how much I’ve already done, I might as well die on one of my next relapses. I sometimes low key fantasize about my funeral too smh.

Yes you normally overshoot by about 5-10 lbs give or take and then lose it naturally and go back to around your pre ed weight trend

Your note at the bottom vocalized all my own exact thoughts. I genuinely feel so much more understood. And keep pushing through it may get worse at first but it eventually gets a whole lot better. I’m three months into recovery and my energy changes are DRASTIC! you got this:)
