@degeneracy Ive been so long out of school I barely remember it tbh

@degeneracy Psych was weird for me. I'm not going to pretend I had grand motivations of fixing all the broken people or bleeding heart shit like me. It was selfishly motivated. I wanted to fix myself, because I realized a lot of the shit I was doing at the time was self-destructive, and I wanted to understand it. It's one of the rarer motivates as far as secondary education goes, I imagine.

@degeneracy *rarer motivations

@degeneracy Psych is a field with basically five general reasons people get in:
1] They're broke and they want fixed
2] They used to be broke and they don't want others to have to deal with what they did
3] They want to fix others
4] They want a position of control over other people's lives
5] Dolla dolla bill yo

@degeneracy The psych trained these days is basically snake oil anyways. If you want to know how bad it's gotten, we're talking about a field of medicine that is now considered a liberal arts degree.
Personally, I'm holding out for the mass suicide art installation piece.

@degeneracy Useful skill just in everyday life too, unlike many of the bullshit degrees unis hand out.
