Psychologized

To trick or scam someone into doing something they would not normally do without suggestive coaxing. Similar to reverse psychology but way more gangster and condescending.

I just psychologized you into giving me your pizza cuz I told you you were fat.

Psychologize

To tell yourself facts to get rid of a fear. To give yourself reasons to not be afraid

"I psychologized my fear of the roller coaster. Over 1 million people have ridden it and have not died."

"I used to be afraid of heights by I psychologized my way through it"

"Bungee jumping sounds scary! But I'm psychologizing myself to not be afraid."

Psychology

The discipline that everyone swears they know about simply because they took an intro class which barely covers the other areas of the discipline or watch Dr. Phil.

Student: I took an intro class and I will psychoanalyze you despite my professor telling me it's bullshit.
2nd student: I know all about psychology since I watch dr. Phil religiously.

Psychology

The practice of taking things we already know about people, and weighing it down with jargon until the only other people who understand it are psychologists.

"Psychology dictates that all juvenile humans grow to imitate the assertive role models around them, sparking a developmental response" (Kids grow up to be like their folks)

psychological

Pertaining to the functions of the mind, or brain.

From the Greek: psukhē(psyche) meaning soul... that which makes a person that specific person, rather than someone or everyone else.

It's not a real problem, you just made it up inside your head. It is all just psychological... though that pertains more to psychosomatosis, you get the drift.
