Introduction to Psychology and Psychosis: A study of psychotic development

free notepinned

Welcome to my intro to psychology writings. While not a conventional format, I thought this would be a suitable medium in order to write down the basics and develop an understanding for psychology. Verbal lectures are preferred as they are both less timely and can often allow for an immediate feedback/discussion. Nevertheless I am choosing to add this to the list of resources available to people.

Quick introductions are in order: I'm not a psychologist, or even practicing with anything related to the field in my daily life, as I'm a logistics and inventory specialist. I am however a doctoral candidate from three universities revolving around psychology and related studies. My thesis was of psychosis and the differentiation from a sociopath and a psychopath. I also greatly studies the reversal of both these traits, or at least believed treatments for them in some of the graduate studies I was a part of. I have a passion for psychology, but it does not pay in the way I would like, and rather prefer my day job with this being a passion project so to speak.

What we'll be going over in this essay series: We'll be developing your understanding of what psychology is in the first ten essays and then specializing in the 30 essays to follow. Each will be in sets of 10 with a rounded discussion had in both, starting with a concept and finishing with a theory. In likely this order, it will be as follows: The spectrum of mental disorders and the broadening presentation in modern world, the formulation of psychosis and the distinction between psychopathology and sociopathology, and finally defining the ultimate mentality: is there such a thing?

Each essay will span a few thousand characters, and may entail some optional readings to go along with it, but nothing that I can reasonably mandate. The knowledge may be referenced, but not directly inferred so the material will still appear accessibly to those who just read the essays.

If you have any inquiries towards what I'm teaching, feel free to message me on here. I'll respond within a week assuming I'm still on the platform. This should reasonably conclude our discussion for now, but please come back soon for my first lesson: Why Freud Still Stands.

You can publish here, too - it's easy and free.
