help me clarify my doubts about what i should do after completing my B.A., as i want to become a clinical psychologist.

i had psychology as one of my optional subjects in 11th and 12th. i have completed my B.A., which was a 3 year course with 3 major subjects, from one of the colleges under the university of rajasthan. my total percentage for the 3 years is 77%.

now i am thinking about pursuing a 4th year in psychology under the same college i completed my B.A. from.

should i pursue a 4th year in psychology after B.A.? or should i opt for M.A. in psychology and then M.A. in clinical psychology? What will be more beneficial? I just wanna know the route to become a clinical psychologist in india.

it's very confusing because i have no proper personal guidance.

How to Rebuild Self-Identity After Years of Shame

Shame is one of the most insidious emotions. It starts right with your parents saying "achha bachha" for the things that they like and "ganda bacha" for the things they disapprove of. That it creates the formation of an entire shadow self. A whole personality, gets formed deep inside us, which we spendn our lives suppressing.

Six decades of research suggest people are more likely to join protests because of social connections and group ties than personal grievances alone, highlighting the powerful role of social networks in collective action.

What do you do when you realise the head “therapist “ or “founder” of a therapy company is not actually a psychologist but a psycho spiritual healer?

So I applied for a job, and while the interview was going on I got to know the founder of the company is psycho spiritual leader, now if that “psycho” part meant education in psychology then it would have been fine, but this person has not mentioned any education background in psychology in their LinkedIn, they have only mentioned bachelors in business.

Roadblock

I am currently a distance masters in psychology student. My degree will be completed in JAN 2027. I am a BTech. I enrolled before ban and was under the expression that even though clinical psychologist is not possible for me but I can be counselling psychologist. I also enrolled for pg diploma in counselling and guidance from symbiosis university. But now I am so confused. What I need to do? Enroll in regular course. Try for Phd. The paths are so confusing.

I worked as a software engineer but due to chronic pain conditions I had to leave my job. I did my psychology masters and am curresntly doing internship. With these new guidelines I am so confused what should I do? Are there any options for peiple like me abroad?

I am open to all suggestions. I am ready to explore unconventional routes also

Loss of deep-sleep linked with Alzheimer’s

Study published in Nature Neuroscience on September 11, 2026. Berkeley News coverage here.

Context:
New research by UC Berkeley neuroscientist Omer Sharon and colleagues, directed by former Berkeley sleep researcher Matthew Walker, identified a link between changes in brain wave patterns during non-REM sleep, poorer episodic memory formation and buildup of the protein tau, a known marker for development of Alzheimer’s disease, in the brain’s frontal cortex.

Research and Key Findings:
During non-REM sleep, neurons shut down in slow, synchronized waves that move across the brain, beginning in the frontal cortex. As we age, tau proteins build up in many people’s brains. For them, these waves become irregular and less synchronized and travel shorter distances.

The researchers used electroencephalograms (EEGs) to measure brain waves during sleep, comparing cognitively healthy participants in their early 20s with those in their mid-60s to mid-70s. In the younger adults, clusters of slow brain waves traveled roughly the length of a handspan across the scalp during non-REM sleep. In the older adults, the waves traveled shorter distances and were more solitary.

Using positron emission tomography (PET) scans, the researchers found that the buildup of tau in the frontal cortex of older participants correlated with those long wave breakdowns. People with more solitary, shorter-reaching slow waves — what the researchers called “lonely waves” — remembered less material.

Why It Matters:
This slow-wave breakdown is linked to dwindling memory consolidation, cognitive decline and the development of Alzheimer’s disease. And though it remains unclear to researchers why memory loss is correlated with aging, the findings suggest that the connection is more complex than previously thought.

Just smelling coffee may be enough to alter mood and brain activity, according to new research. Scientists found that coffee aroma alone can influence attention, alertness, and cognitive processing—even without drinking a single sip.
