There are as many answers to this question as there are asking it. Everyone will have their own unique set of circumstances that has led them to consider a psychic reading. For many people, they want to find comfort in a difficult experience. Others want to find love. Still others are worried about a job prospect or other potential future event. Of course, some people do it just for the fun and entertainment value. In the end, only you can really answer why you personally should (or should not) get a psychic reading.
