The founder initially a psychology student, found that psychology is super useful, but unfortunately wasn't accessible to the public like it is today. Through collaborative effort, him and a bunch of animators, students, made bite-sized, animated videos, to explore topics like anxiety, depression, trauma healing, relationships, emotional intelligence, self-love, communication skills, ADHD, autism, introversion, and more. Our iconic sprout mascot represents growth, resilience, and the hope that—with the right care—we can all thrive. Why subscribe? Because Psych2Go isn’t just a channel.

Video Description

Ever feel like your brain just isn’t working the way it used to? Like your attention span is shrinking, your thoughts feel foggy, and everything online is just... noise? That might be brainrot—a term used to describe mental exhaustion, information overload, and the struggle to focus in today’s digital world. The goal of this video is to help you identify the signs of brainrot and understand what’s causing it, so you can take steps to regain focus, clarity, and control over your mind. If you’ve been feeling scattered, unmotivated, or constantly glued to screens, this might be exactly what you need. Let’s get your brain back on track! This video is made possible by Betterhelp, an affordable online counseling platform.
