Why to Learn Psychology?

Knowledge will protect you against psychopathy

By Seema PatelPublished 9 months ago Updated 9 months ago 1 min read

It’s a chaotic world,

full of people with motivations.

They carry weapons

of psychopathy

to scar your psyche.

So wear the armor

of psychology

while navigating society.

To not be

impaled by envy,

or unmet motivations,

and to be safe

from shifting narratives —

scamming and deception.

Let awareness

be your protective shield

against the craziness.

Know what projections

and displacement are —

Be wary of

manipulation and narcissism

shadow and trauma.

lack of empathy and remorse

Be confident of your decisions

in a world

that can temp and persuade you

toward a dark path

of self-sabotaging.

As stress levels rise,

and emotional intelligence

dwindles dramatically,

it becomes important

to stay conscious.

I can tell with confidence

and my experience.

    This sounds if you studied one too many psych courses. This could open up a therapy group of some kind not sure which. Good job.
