Ode to Freud

Psychology.

In a nutshell, my secret passion. I love how the human mind works and trying to find the driving forces behind what makes us tick and why we do the things we do. If I had enough smarts I would go to school and become a psychologist,with a focus on abnormal psych. But since that doesnt seem to be in the future, I can always observe and teach myself!

Here are a few "disorders" that are associated with Abnormal Psych:
-Anxiety Disorders (Panic attacks , phobias, OCD, and PTSD)
-Mood Disorders ( Bipolar, Depression )
-Personality Disorders ( Anti-Social, Avoidance, Borderline, Dependent, Histrionic , Narcissistic, and Paranoid)
-Schizophrenia

I think the personality disorders are the most interesting, because again, figuring out why people are the way they are is just plain fun! Why can't the asshole in front of me at the grocery store read the sign stating "20 Items or Less" when he has a shit load of groceries? Why is my nosy neighbor not getting the clue to mind his own business? Why can't the person on the tread mill before me remember to wipe down the machine when they are done? These are just a few of lifes questions that will probably *never* be answered, but they are sure fun to ponder.


And yea... I am extremely bored...... watching paint dry could be fairly more entertaining than what I'm doing. Later tonight is "dog show" class... will prolly take Checkers, just for something to do.
