About Psycix

Welcome to Psycix, where we unravel the quirky twists and turns of the human mind! I’m Christine Carter, your occasional guide, part-time psychologist, and full-time problem-solver (a.k.a. professional overthinker).

Let me take you for a jog down memory lane—bonus points if you can keep up! As a child, I was that kid who would sit entirely too close to the television set during our favorite animated shows. Why? Because I sincerely believed that if I concentrated hard enough, I could reach through the screen and communicate with cartoon characters. My parents eventually resorted to enforcing a “no-wall-sniffing” rule, citing that my vibrant imagination wasn't a harmless childhood curiosity but rather a dire sign that I might drift into fiction entirely.

Flash forward a few decades, and here I am—choosing to channel that childhood wonderment into understanding human behavior instead (not that I don’t still occasionally wonder what a duck in a trench coat is up to). Psychology enthusiasts, welcome to this treasure trove of thoughts, insights, and laughter!

At Psycix, you’ll find essays on everything from the complexities of anxiety to ways we can trick our brains into loving kale (or at least tolerate it). Embedded within our oodles of research is a spoonful of humor—because let’s face it, coping with psychological concepts shouldn't require studying bright blue books in full monotone mode. Here, we try to mix our stats with a sprinkle of wit, leaving topics not only informative but digestible, relatable, and yes, occasionally hilarious.

So, if you’re ready to explore the mind’s inner workings without getting lost in a sea of psyche jargon, grab your metaphorical sun hat, and let’s dive in! Who knows? We might even discover what triggers your impulse to laugh at bad puns (spoiler alert: SAFETY WARNING TO PUN LOVERS—there will be many).

Thanks for joining me on this wild psychological ride! Let’s investigate the beauty of what makes us tick. Cheers to sparking curious discussions, mind-blowing insights, and no wall-sniffing allowed!

With whimsical thoughts,

Christine Carter
