Explanation / Answer

Hello!

First day vs Now ;

Before I knew anything of psychology personally , I thought that people who knew psychology were the ones who not only read faces but would know what ever is going inside ones head by looking at the faces I learnt this from media , well atleast that's what they portrayed here where I live .No one actually showed what real psychology and mental issues meant until I had a chance to learn it myself.

Honestly, when ever i thought of psychology I would think oh! I'm going to be cool because it's psychology and not many people do this here and also I did not know how vast psychology was I did not know anything that existed basically, for me psychology was to put a person under magic and get them to sleep using a small crystal ball I did not even know the word hypnotize in till I got into psychology class I had no clue about how important and real this particular subject was and how it can help you become a better person.

Now I know! I also use a lot of positive psychology in real life and try to be focused and be mentally fit and also don't call any random person mad which is very wrong and I realize it now and also I understood the importance of psychology and mental stability and also how important and effective treatment can be and also that various kinds can be treated and I really feel good about the subject I chose cause it helps you beyond academics it is for life .

Thankyou, hope this helped!
