For my professional blog, I chose the webpage "Psychology Today". Ever since I was twelve I've always found listening to others express themselves in ways others can't very interesting. Getting to know how others think and feel in ways you can't imagine. This blog impressed me so much, during my times I've learned so much about the mental health on how it takes a toll on living life. It gives critical thinking skills, tips on how to approach someone's health. Psychology is the scientific study of how the body and mind relate to each other. It is the summary of a person's characteristics, such as how they feel, think, and behave. Taking this course shows you how to deal with different things and situations involving others. It will also help you think critically about what you may encounter, and train in the use of scientific method. .Having the knowledge of psychology makes you much more familiar with different traits of people and why. Did this person’s childhood affect how they act now? What has caused their behavior? Not only does studying this course benefit how you are around others, it can help you gain self-confidence by learning more about yourself and your own personality. Understanding other people around you is a very necessary skill, especially in fields such as nursing, medicine, teaching, etc. The American Psychological Association (APA) is the largest professional organization that represents the psychologists in the United States. There are 54 divisions that represent a large variety of specialties in work. This includes educational settings, criminal justice, hospitals, the armed forces, and industry
