Relationships, Personality Traits, Abnormal Behavior, & Intimacy
These psychology articles include psychological disorders, fear of intimacy, signs of depression, stages of love, introvert personality traits and emotional cheating
Fear of Intimacy
Fear of intimacy has its roots in many pots: past rejection, neglectful parents, unresolved sibling rivalry, unexpressed grief, fear of rejection, painful past events, or even a poor body image. These psychology articles show that once you learn where fear of intimacy comes from, you’re better able to move past it.
Emotional Cheating
Sharing your dreams, goals and secrets with people other than your partner is emotional infidelity or emotional cheating. It can be more destructive than cheating on your partner in the traditional sense because it involves your mind and soul, not just your body parts. These psychology articles reveal recent research about emotional intimacy and emotional cheating.
Psychological Disorders
Schizophrenia, obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety disorders and depression are just a few of the many psychological disorders we struggle with. Psychology articles can provide information and insight, but only a live psychiatrist, psychologist or counselor can help individual cases.
One of the best ways to deal with the social stigma that comes with psychological disorders is to educate people. If you talk about your schizophrenia or depression, share how it happened (eg., wonky brain chemicals, a traumatic event, an unrelated disease that triggered it). The more you talk about it, the less stigma there’ll be – and the more people will respect and like you. These psychology articles reveal some unknown facts about psychological disorders.

Personality Traits
Whether you’re an introvert or extrovert, you can change your personality traits if you really want to. It may be healthier, however, to just accept who you are and honor the personality you have. These psychology articles will help you do that. If you’re introverted and prefer to spend your time alone reading or writing, then do it. If you’re extroverted and crave the spotlight – then party away! Your personality traits aren’t set in stone, but you shouldn’t attempt to change them unless they disrupt your life or make others unhappy.

Stages of Love
Part of the reason many couples divorce is ignorance of the stages of love. We can’t love with the same passionate intensity that we did at the beginning. It's not abnormal behavior when chemistry fades into routine love; many books and articles reveal how to keep the romance alive. These psychology articles help you become aware of the stages of love; that alone can keep your relationship healthy and strong.
