I am writing an essay on the psychology Id like to see in the future. While I value a lot of the advances it has made into understanding the mind, I am coming to the conclusion that a lot of it may be doing more harm than good. I see research efforts leading us to a healthy mind rather than away from a broken one. Given the available statistics against a normal mental state, perhaps its not working to single them out and treat these minds as if they are broken, but rather treat them as normal and work towards full potential. Set the bar higher. I believe we are all capable of managing our normal human tendancies to experience a schizophrenic episode and understand depression as a healthy method of working through our problems. Managing stress and accessing productivity are things we are capable but seem to come from practives that are considered alternative. If mainstream Psychology took an interest, I am certain it would have something to contribute. How do you see Psychology?
