Why I chose

Psychology?
I dont know exactly why I made this
choice. I also dont want to find out a
great answer. However, there are
some facts which lead me to this
decision.

Firstly, it must be my grandparents suffering from


Alzheimers.
My grand father died because of this disease and
my grand mother currently suffers of it. While it is
difficult, I discovered during this couple of years that
I enjoy taking care of grandma and supporting my
family. Talking non-senses with her, trying to lift up
her mood, still discovering coherent parts of her, its
stressful but enjoyable.

Secondly, since I was young I prefered to just


stay in the back listening to people.
I liked observing the way they interact with each other or
with me. It still remains one of my favorites activities.
Also, as I grow up, my family and friends started to turn
up to me when they needed a listening ear. Im not the
best listener but I do my best understanding them. I think
its a good trait to have here.

On the other hand, I had my fair share of being called


weird, too introverted or difficult.
Psychology related materials helped me to understand
myself more, to become better. Then I was wondering
how it will have been if someone proffesional guided
me. When people have difficult times or they just want
to be listened I wish to be able to help them.

Overall, my reasons can be flawed.


I definitely presented them in a good light.
However, more then reasons, the state of
mind is more important for me. So Ill say
I just wish to be here.
