What is normal psychology? Most people consider one to be normal if they seem

to have no problems physically or mentally.

What is abnormal psychology? I think it could be the study of mental illness as

some journals stated. Overall it's the study of mental illnesses and of how people with mental illnesses
can be treated. Stated in Health and Science guide mental illness is a much-debated topic in the world of
psychology to which a lot of research is still needed. Problems usually come up when people try to
define what is normal. Sigmund Freud was considered to be the father of Psychoanalysis, said there was
no such thing as a normal person.

Mental illness is considered to be an illness of the mind, which makes it difficult for people to carry out a
normal, productive lifestyle. Mental illnesses range from depression to schizophrenia (a very serious
mind disorder). It is important to remember that people with such disorders ate stricken with an illness.
They have no more control over their illness than when a person gets flu or a cold.
