Psycho-er-logy

What is it with Psychology and people?Everytime i come out and say that i have a Masters in Psychology i get a well earned look that screams 'hey now we know as to why you are weird' or the next inevitable question ' can you read my mind?' Psychology - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychology This explains it all.
Human psychology always intrigues me.Maybe that's why i chose the subject or maybe coz am just another psychologist who feels that it will probably give me some basic answers to my confused soul & head :) All thanks to Freud & James,not that i believe completely in Freudism.One common problem is that a common man fails to see the difference between a Psychiatrist & a Psychologist.We psychologists just identify the problems but to treat them we have Clinical Psychology.But Psychiatry is completely different.But all said it takes a lot of time to even explain the difference.Again beats me down to where i started - why is it that a human brain accepts group mentality easily than an individual?Why is it as an individual some people have less psychological quotient?Why is it that few of us can look ahead and read straight through one's thoughts?A friend of mine once said that it's violation of privacy :) can't deny that but it is not that we do that every single person who crosses our way.

Psychology that way is very interesting coz i personally have tuned my senses to a great extent where i can read a person and 90% of the time it's turned to be right on target & the remaining 10% - well you know that 'To Err is human' :)On the other hand it is NOT like i have a crystal ball and talk gibberish.And most of us are blessed with not just the ability to read one's mind but also with telepathy.Part & parcel of the subject.With this iam stopping coz i'll go on & on & on if i ever start on the topic.But planning to blog about certain other interesting stuff connected to Psychology.
