YouTube Video UCkJEpR7JmS36tajD34Gp4VA_-O4erE-sS08 Grooming doesn’t always look like danger — sometimes, it looks like trust. It starts with someone who “gets you,” supports you, and maybe even helps you grow. But slowly, something shifts: your instincts blur, boundaries soften, and you feel smaller without knowing why. This video unpacks the lesser-known signs of grooming in adults — from emotional dependency to subtle power plays — and how to tell when support turns into control. Have you ever looked back and questioned whether someone blurred your lines more than you realized?

6 Traits That Show High Social Intelligence

Psych2Go July 8, 2025 3:20 am

Feeling overwhelmed by your sexual urges doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you—it means you’re human. But when those urges start to feel distracting, compulsive, or out of sync with your values, it’s okay to pause and ask: how can I handle this in a healthier way? In this Psych2Go episode, we gently explore why urges feel so intense, what’s happening in your brain and body, and most importantly—how to regain a sense of balance. From mindfulness tips to self-regulation tools, we’re here to help you reconnect with yourself, without shame. What’s helped you feel more in control or at peace with your own needs?

How to Manage Your Sexual Urges more Effectively

Psych2Go July 7, 2025 4:28 am

Have you ever found yourself choking back tears, forcing a smile, or saying “I’m fine” when you’re anything but? Bottling emotions might feel like survival—but over time, it becomes a silent weight we carry. In this self-reflection quiz, we explore signs of emotional suppression, repressed emotions from childhood, and how generational trauma may have shaped your current emotional habits. Whether you learned to stay quiet in a loud world or you're just now learning to feel again, this is your chance to understand yourself with more compassion. So... are you bottling your emotions, or finally ready to uncork what’s been buried?

Quiz: How Bad Are Your Suicidal Thoughts? (Self Test)

Psych2Go July 3, 2025 5:01 pm

Bed rotting — the act of staying in bed for hours doing nothing productive — might feel like harmless self-care at first, but is it slowly pulling you deeper into burnout, depression, or anxiety? In this video, we explore the psychology of bed rotting, the signs it’s hurting your mental health more than helping, and what you can do instead to feel human again. We break down research-backed reasons why prolonged physical inactivity, avoidance, and emotional rumination worsen your overall well-being. Is your bed becoming a comfort zone or a cage? What’s been your experience — have you ever struggled to get out of a bed-rotting cycle?

Bed rotting — the act of staying in bed for hours doing nothing productive — might feel like harmless self-care at first, but is it slowly pulling you deeper into burnout, depression, or anxiety? In this video, we explore the psychology of bed rotting, the signs it’s hurting your mental health more than helping, and what you can do instead to feel human again. We break down research-backed reasons why prolonged physical inactivity, avoidance, and emotional rumination worsen your overall well-being. Is your bed becoming a comfort zone or a cage? What’s been your experience — have you ever struggled to get out of a bed-rotting cycle?
