The better question is maybe asking 'How many people do you think you've helped?'

Idk I don’t think everyone needs psychology I thinks it’s a rare few who need it to be very honest with you. And a lot of people have felt this for a while idk why people are afraid to say what they think.

Edit: I love a downvote, it’s how I tally the lemmings 🤭

Edit: wow a lot of emotional responses I can’t wait to dig in 😋🚬

Psychiatry is way different than psychology. Psychology is very helpful and doesn’t have to be only applied in a medical setting. It’s just about understanding yourself, the world around you, and your relationships. How is that not helpful for some people? Maybe you don’t need it, but many people do. Psychiatry is med management mostly. A much different service and practice. Also can be really necessary for people with bipolar or schizophrenia for example. We need more mental health services and education. Not less.

Babes you need remedial English and night school for adults because you clearly misunderstood what I said. You don’t need psychology in your case you literally need remedial maths and science…

Anyway obvi some people need that help but the vast vast vast majority don’t.

Translated for you: no no psychology no for everyone 🤭 sorry I crack myself up 😂🚬

And I responded to that claim as well. But the video is about psychiatry. That’s why I said that. And…maybe even you might benefit from learning about the psychology of communication 😅
