Holy cow, that sounds intense O_O I mean, definitely,
definitely interesting, but also the kind of work it sounds
like you can't help but take home with you. I don't know
if I'd be able to handle that, so you've got my respect.
No wonder you need so much schooling too, that's some
intense, high-stakes stuff. Is there a particular reason
you want to go into that field, if you don't mind me asking?
And, I also have to ask - do you watch Criminal Minds? XD
I'm not really sure actually. XD These last 7 years out of college has made me really get to know myself though, and its one of those subjects that I've been reading and self-studying for the last year. There's this deep insatiable need to understand the human mind- I've always enjoyed psychology, but normal psych kinda irritates me. Normal people and their normal problems are solved all the time. But for people who are deranged- or who do deranged acts- is that human nature revealed in a stark unveiling without the cushions of things like empathy and compassion or manners. Is it chemical in the body, is it a product of the environment? Is it a genetic inclination to do horrible deeds with an environment fostering and forcing a wicked flower to bloom into being?
Are some people just born evil? But then, what is evil? How can we define an idea or concept with a single definition when every person holds to a different perspective?
This stuff really gets me going though-- I'd have a wall text before I knew it. >.< But yes, its a puzzle that may never be solved- its a job that I have skills for that would make it easier for me than maybe someone else- as long as there are rules and laws, there will always be people breaking them so it has a demand-- yea. Just dark and mysterious and addictive.
Edit: I've not seen that show, I didn't even know what it was til you mentioned it. XD
And its gotten so bad, this desire to know more- I picked up a handwriting analysis book and have been religiously analyzing various specimens of writing from my family, friends, co workers, boss and strangers.
So freaking cool. :B
And I'm going to be helping out at a funeral home so I can get first hand knowledge about a deceased body and sear a reminder in my brain that what I am doing is a very serious matter with deadly consequences. Its not about theories and testing and the mind- its about victims. And how to help them, how to prevent them.
