Stanford has an interesting lecture series on youtube. Yale has one too.

I really like crash course for getting a good overview of a field :))

They have a series on psychology here. :))

I've heard good things about a book called Thinking, fast and slow by Daniel Kahneman.

Also I got more reccs if you got any specific topics you like or goals to reach. There're books about subconcious and intuition, handling bad emotions and "manipulating"/leading/convincing people.

Not a podcast, by PsychologyToday.com has good primers on various emotions.

Openstax has free textbooks for everything!

There are lots of psychology lectures available for free on youtube and various college websites.

Despite not being a psychologist, Simon Whistler is more accurate about it than anyone else I've seen on YouTube when it's spoken of (his topics range). The reason I start off mentioning him is because even the professionals stick to stereotypes sometimes and it's irritating. "Good" ones are typically exclusive to who they teach.

It's worth mentioning on the side that, even in 2024, it's still not what many would call an "exact science". Take the Milgram and Stanford prison experiments for example. Repeat experiments could not repeat findings, in fact history suggests the opposite.

Psychology or psychiatry? Similar but different. Psychology is the treatment using DBT or CBT for disorders. Psychiatry is the diagnosis, etiology, and medications.
