A continuation of yesterday’s Psych 101 topic, The Bystander Effect, the Kitty Genovese case sparked it all.

10/08/2025

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭. It’s a psychological phenomenon where people are less likely to intervene when others are present. The responsibility to act gets diffused — the silent thought becomes, “Someone else will step in.”

Psychologists John Darley and Bibb Latané (1968) first demonstrated this after studying group behavior following the Kitty Genovese case in New York. (More on that in next post!) They found that when people thought others could help, their personal sense of duty dropped dramatically.

𝓦𝓱𝓪𝓽’𝓼 𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓵𝓵𝔂 𝓱𝓪𝓹𝓹𝓮𝓷𝓲𝓷𝓰:

Your brain does a quick social calculation:
“𝘐𝘧 𝘯𝘰 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘪𝘵’𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘮𝘺 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘰.”
It’s not apathy; it’s hesitation born from social pressure and uncertainty.

How to counter it:
1️⃣ Acknowledge the freeze. Notice that silence itself is a cue something’s off.
2️⃣ Personalize responsibility. Remind yourself: “If I don’t speak, who will?”
3️⃣ Start small. Even a gentle “Hey, that’s not cool” breaks the paralysis for others to follow.
4️⃣ Act fast. The longer you wait, the harder it gets — quick action interrupts group inaction.

The bystander effect doesn’t just happen in emergencies. It happens in classrooms, offices, friend groups, online spaces — anywhere someone could speak up, but doesn’t.

Awareness is the first disruption. Silence might feel safe, but it’s often the loudest response in the room.

Some people can predict the weather, some people can hit a high note, and some people forget the simple thing they’ve gotten up three separate times to get and still don’t have. ADHD is a collection of superpowers that are, sometimes, super hard to understand. A knowledgeable therapist can help explain how ADHD manifests and how to set yourself up with routines and techniques for management. 📲 347-391-4250

Sometimes what looks like laziness or defiance is actually a battle with mental health. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to fight it in silence. 💛

👉 Share this with someone who might need the reminder today, and don’t be afraid to reach out for support.

• Break things into tiny steps. Instead of “do the laundry,” make it “fold one shirt.” Small wins matter.
• Build a routine anchor. Even one consistent habit (like making tea in the morning or a short walk outside) can create stability.
• Reach out to one person. You don’t need a long conversation—just a quick text like “hey, thinking of you” can break the isolation.
• Move your body gently. Light stretching, a slow walk, or even just opening a window for fresh air can shift your mood.
• Practice radical kindness toward yourself. If all you did today was survive, that is enough.

⚠️ Important: If you’re experiencing severe thoughts of harming yourself, please contact a licensed professional right away or call/text 988 (the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline in the U.S.). You deserve help and support.
