Hi there! I made a post yesterday about what sparked my interests in the topic of forensics and psychology. Replying to this post today made me wonder what began this interest in others. Was it maybe something you studied or school or a book you read that peaked your interest? I find it fascinating to learn how we are loving such different lives but ended up on the same forum.

My fascination with forensic psychology arose more out of how neurological illness can move someone to behave as they haven't before. Part of the reason for now studying forensic psychology is to apply it to cases in which there is a grey area between criminality and neurology.
As such, I may like to do a Phd in neuropsychology and combine it within a criminal framework.
However, I also identify with a lot of what Johannah has stated and love certain shows like Criminal Minds.
Great question 😀
I got interested with forensic psychology in high school. I got to watch the korean series criminal minds and I began watching other criminal docu series in Netflix. I find it interesting and challenging, and of course very useful as well. I also binge watch law & order: svu, partners in crime and other mystery crime series. I took behavioral science because it is aligned with my interests. Human behavior had always baffled and bewildered me, especially the topic of deviancy. As we took courses in psych, anthro, and socio, I acquired a more holistic view of human behavior. Topics in these areas had even piqued my interest in forensic psych even more.
