1 Year ago today... I created this blog!

Balloons, streamers and fireworks all round for this post!🎈🎉🎇

As today, marks the 1st anniversary of this blog!



Exclamation mark moments aside, I wouldn't be as motivated as I am today if I hadn't taken up the interest and passion to blog. Here's the timely reminder why...



Once upon a time, unknowingly aware that there was a 3rd national lockdown on the horizon, I was feeling so damn bored with myself, my mind had simply had enough of not being able to find any motivation.

That was the very moment I had decided to use my hidden initiative (at that time) and CREATE MY MOTIVATION. Hence, Psychology Intake was born.

Not only did I want to use my initiative to constantly feed my motivation by taking up blogging, I've also developed a strong passion for sharing my interest knowledge to an audience, as I one day hope to become an inspiration on how understanding psychology can shape the world, let alone people.

As of now, I know that I've still got a LONG way to go on my journey until I reach that goal in my life. But I will never quit trying. I will continue to look for more ways to become a worldwide game changer. Basically, change the world.


What a milestone to celebrate. 

I must take this moment to also thank my viewers (1,769) and those of whom who have given me constant support (you know you are if you have) for constantly driving me to keep going with my blog.😊💜 

Here's to more progress!✊

Why looking after your mental health is important during the autumn season

Image
Well, October has come around again as quickly as that. Which also means that autumn has officially begun, and those longer nights will be slowly drawing as we head towards winter. As the title says, I came across this post on the Samaritans Facebook page, and thought that I would share what I have seen on here, so you all can get a glimpse of it as well. Although Samaritans had actually shared the post from another blogging website, called: MentalHealthUK. Rather than break this bit down into rhetorical question paragraphs, I'll just insert my personal insight, which will explain what I like to do during the autumn period. First off, I try & make an effort to go out exercising as much as possible during my spare time. This is mainly because I want to keep myself in good shape when the temperature turns colder. But also, I like to do this to keep my mental health in sanity mode. Whilst on the subject of mental health, I like to keep myself occupied with different things as well

My thoughts on Shappi Khorsandi's book: Scatterbrain (ADHD awareness & insight post)

Image
Evening all! I hope you're enjoying your week so far. As for me, it's been boring so far. Mainly because I had been stuck at home for 3 days due to having a cold, and not being allowed out. As of such, I thought about doing some more research on ADHD during the time being. However, what actually prompted me to do some more research on this, was because I specifically wanted to find the link to being a scatterbrain & having ADHD. This was where I had stumbled upon a search result on Google, which consisted of a book on the Amazon website with the very title: "Scatterbrain: How I got off the ADHD rollercoaster" I then immediately thought to myself: "Ah, this must be the right research source I am looking for!" And sure enough, it certainly didn't disappoint...! This book turns out to be Comedian, Shappi Khorsandi, talking about her experiences with ADHD. It also turns out that she was undiagnosed with the said condition, and reflects on her own behavio

MIND, you are amazing at what you do, and never give up... Ever...

Happy Saturday all! Hope you're all enjoying it so far, as for the rest of this week. I know I haven't been paying much attention on here lately, as I have been too occupied with my coursework & my jobs.  During this time, I was disappointed to see on MIND's social media that the UK government has let down people's mental health, again... Although I do not consider myself to be somebody who requires support from any mental health professional who may have a degree of some sort, but I do consider myself to be somebody who cares about mental health being taken into consideration. Especially when it comes to people suffering from their mental health by having no one to turn to, as well as to seek professional advice. Read about it here:  https://www.mind.org.uk/news-campaigns/news/uk-government-shelves-the-mental-health-bill/ Because I am a part of MIND'S workforce, I feel like it's only right if I speak up on behalf of the company/charity. Not just that, but a
