A personal look back at 2010

The year 2010 has been a year of realizations of sorts for me, dear reader…

The concept of shared psychosis in pop culture

Please forgive me dear reader, if this entry is laden with lots of psychology as I am on a psychological high as of the moment.

It is no denying that psychology and many of its concepts are already visible in pop culture. There is this one psychological concept that got my particular interest at the moment; it is the concept of shared psychosis also known as Folie à deux. Quoting Wikipedia, Folie à deux is a syndrome in which symptoms of a delusional belief are transmitted from one individual to another.
