Psychology as a field is already problematic because it only ever looks at things on an individual level and never a societal level. Pop psychology doesn't even bother to have a basic understanding of human behaviour before pretending to have "solved it"

I got called an insufferable twit on here because I made a comment about how I like being a word-nerd. It’s apparently my whole personality. I wake up and flip through a thesaurus before telling my children I love them, but I use ten times the amount of syllables required. It’s ruining my marriage. My life is falling apart. This all happened nudiustertian.

The act of submitting posts to Hexbear implies a submission complex.

And here we see the dort owl indulging in their coping mechanism of posting

I'm sorry your post is dripping in dark triad. Repetition? Dark triad. Use of emoji? That's a dark triad. Hatred of pop psychology? Yep you guessed it BIG dark triad energy

Its basically the normals doing their subtext bullshit but on crack. I treat it the same way I treat all normals when they say something stupid inferring a meaning that isnt there and stare at them blankly until they go away.

I dont know why we bothered creating language to not use it and instead spend hours hypothesising what someones intentions might be. This world pisses me off that i have to spin maximum cpu cycles in my head every day for this inference bullshit its so exhausting.

“Oh snort owl you cant say something directly or clearly it might hurt their feelings” ok sounds like a them problem. Truecrime did untold damage on the world by inventing random terms for some dude shuffling in a seat. “This is the shifting complex it means the cop has bored them to death which means guilty”

*poimts at seagull* Repressed trauma

Hmm is this performative male behavior?

There's few things I can't stand more in this word than people who regularly use therapy speech in any context outside of therapy. Maybe it's cause I spent so much of my early adult life in various treatment programs that it feels like people are taking the absolute worst moments of my life and using them to feel special and quirky

Hi hello yes it's me Mr. Pop Psychologist, I am here to project my own unexamined biases and self loathing onto you, generalize from my own experiences because I assume you're just like me, and ignore everything I know about you as a person in order to make myself feel so sharp, astute, and perceptive. Please tell me I'm correct and marvel at my pyschoanalytical prowess or I will crash out at you for doubting my skills, because I have no self worth.

(And that's before I get into the phrenological implications of thy beak shape)

To clarify I don't hate real qualified psychologists

I underatand that not wanting to be labelled is a reasonable coping mechanism when you've been judged harshly, but you must realize by this point that you probably have an anti-psychology complex.
