Has anyone any experience with studying psychology? Actually I want to study neuropsychology but I think I have to start in psychology and then later I can study neuropsychology.
I am an pretty indecisive fuck and have a hard time choosing a subject.

Yep, neuropsychology is good if you enjoy working with chemistry and biology, if not don't bother and do another psychology area

Psychology has use. Behaviour is the end result of a complex electrical chemical system.

At the very least, studying each neuro-chemical and their effects is missing the point of something that is highly complex and in motion. So behaviour is the end result of all that complexity, psychology is the only field dedicated to sitting in front of that behaviour and making sense of it.

Psychology is just one school of philosophy masquerading as a science.
The way the human mind works isn't actually comprehensible to the human mind itself so don't expect you'll understand anything about it regardless of what you study or how many papers you read.

Study frogs instead.

Neuropsychology is not as good as you think it is. Neuropsychology is almost completely dumb shit like the Tower of Hanoi and memory tasks and inferring brain function from the results, you know, like the usual stupid things you also see in clinical psychology. A neuropsychologist is so inferior to a neurologist, neuropharmacologist, or neuroscientist, it is not even funny. Better to go into something like medicine, biology or pharmacology and specialize in the CNS. Neuropsychology is so dumbed down compared to those real disciplines, it is practically criminal.

Yes, but it behaves to outliers like they do not exist. They came up with almost always miss assumptions and tries to fill places that just voids.
