PsychSurvivalism: What you need to know about psychology to promote your and your family's survival and well-being.

This podcast is about survival, specifically about psychological survival Most survival discussions are about weapons and methods for their use, They usually don't do as well in explaining the situations in which you might use those weapons and how to avoid getting into them. That is the main focus here.. It is about the psychology of the influences that result in misjudgment and poor outcomes, how to recognize and avoid them.

This is about how to think or how to think about thinking, how to recognize and train yourself in how to respond mentally and emotionally when a response to threat is required, even in situations when threat is inobvious to all parties involved. Or as Leonard Cohen said in his song, Hallelujah, "...all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot someone who outdrew you." It is about how to recognize and respond to mental and emotional uncertainty, even with intimates. This presentation discusses how to recognize environmental factors that could result in threat and the people who live and function in those environments that are exploitative or threatening even when there is no intention of causing harm. I might not tell you what to do in specific situations, but I hope to provide useful information on how to recognize them, interpret them, and how best to react to them.
