Everything you wanted to know about psychology but didn’t know whom to ask

It is amazing to see the kind of interest psychology generates. For many of us, at the first glance, psychology does seem like an interesting and simple subject to master. But very soon, we realize it is not so. And, the more we read about psychology, the more we will relate to the many theories and the more we understand about ourselves.

But they do want to know a lot of psychology-related stuff and generally Google them up for answers. I hope to answer some of the most basic questions and queries relating to the field. In the process, I hope to make it more accessible and clear to you; and also show you why it’s one of the most important fields of study. Continue reading…
