The verb "to psych" can mean to mentally prepare, to excite, or to intimidate psychologically.

The use of the word "psych" as an slang interjection means "just kidding" or "fooled you", from the third meaning, in that someone was believing what you were saying previously. You have "psyched them out", the original slang terminology.
