This is common misinformation, psychopaths have reduced fear and anxiety but they will have it in some specific cases. Sociopaths on the other hand, or secondary psychopaths do have anxiety sometimes more than normal people.

I feel like its also important to know that not all people with Antisocial Personality Disorder are vicious people. Theyre not all murderers like they are portrayed in media, and while they dont have empathy for others they also dont have empathy for themselves which can lead to self harming behaviors. Theyre just another person with a mental illness and they can work on understanding empathy through therapy even though they wont feel it. Just because you have Antisocial Personality Disorder doesnt automatically make you a horrible person.
I've heard that some of them don't respond to dopamine, perhaps due to lack of receptors or something like that. Wherever it was that I heard that, they said that adrenaline takes the place of dopamine for these individual. It's sort of makes sense in a way, because they're both catecholamines.

Trauma from severe neglect and abuse in the first 12 months of life and continuing through age 5 is the cause of this. The brain is rewired due to the trauma. It's sad that the reason a person becomes this way is caused by another person.

@@T.TaylorIPMIt is quite dishonest and shortsighted to suggest that something doesn't exist simply because you haven't seen diagnostic criteria you don't like. But I suppose things would be easier for you if people didn't believe you existed, huh?
Yeah, they've been lingering around as broad terms describing multiple traits and issues. It turns out that there are better, more accurate ways to describe specific common groupings of traits that can be of more assistance to both patients and their doctors. I don't mind the use of the words so long as it's used as layman's terms or as a descriptor such as "shows signs of psychopathy," etc. My two cents...grain of salt and all, lol.
Sociopath is not a clinical term. And the public really should get away from using it because they misuse it daily simply to describe traits that they deem undesirable. ASPD is not a diagnosis of a bad person.
@smechxka I honestly don't mind what people call me. But Aspd is the clinical term that's what I use. I think If people get butt hurt about being called a psychopath or a sociopath probably indicates they don't have aspd
A lack of empathy goes with a successful career, politicians CEOs and business people are mostly empathy free sociopaths because empathy is useless. There is no point in being empathetic because it does not help the person it's just a short period of misery by proxy. Compassion on the other hand makes people want to help which is more useful.
Yes bro but you have a mistake in your take, Its not that they dont have it. They choose to purposely ignore it. Thats what makes them different.(normal and not psyhos)
Most of those people have neither empathy or compassion, so they have no issues in treating employees like garbage, using slave and child labour and so on. The vast majority of CEOs and people like landlords, stock traders, investors and so on, all choose to do "jobs" that are a detriment to society at large. Also, only 20% of them have been identified to have ASPD. This means 80% of them choose to ignore their humanity for their selfish desires.
At this point I just feel like a sociopath with anxiety lol. Like, I don’t understand how people can just like feel what another person is feeling like that. I try my best but I just can’t.
You don't have to have antisocial PD to have low empathy-that's actually more common than people realize. Could be autism spectrum stuff (a lot of auti folks get missed because they mask well), could be trauma, could be a handful of other things. It also doesn't make you a bad person like this video suggests and it doesn't mean you never care about others. Emotional empathy (feeling for someone) is different from cognitive empathy (understanding others' feelings) is different from compassion (wanting to help someone who's hurt). And it's not like having empathy stops people from being assholes sometimes anyway. /not a psychologist, just neurodivergent (hyperempathetic actually) and so are almost all my friends, so I'm familiar lol
@@paintedcrow thanks. I know this sounds dumb, but hearing someone say that means a lot to me. I’ve been seriously doubting myself lately. Thank you so much.
Even if you are a sociopath, it wouldn't mean you're a bad person. Like the other commenter said, low empathy isn't alone a diagnosis, but also, it's what you do with it that matters. Thoughts and feelings aren't what determines who you are. Rather, it's your decision to act on them or not that how's your true character. If you're still worried and have the means to, I would recommend talking to a psychologist about it, because there are therapies to help people develop empathy. And finally, that lack of empathy can be very useful in certain situations. For example, there is a higher than average proportion of surgeons who are sociopaths. I'm sure it has to do with it being easier for them to cut into flesh without feeling second-hand pain. Who you are is all about how you use your personality traits. Hope this helps!
Would love to see the mechanism of military drill or police drill on chemicals in the brain. Because in order for them to be familiar with violence, the empathy towards the other human being must be reduced a great deal via training to view them as enemies. Could it be that the pattern of training routine changed the balance of those chemicals?
@@Krypticobject1because they're most often in helping professions, like police, teacher, doctor... It's not the training, the training just makes them more efficient and gives them a ready-made hunting ground.
To everyone in the comments treating these people as Others: these people are still human like you and me. Do not judge someone for what they cannot control.
I think I got the extra empathy they left over… For the better and for the worst, I’m so the opposite of that profile, that’s crazy. I even wish that that I have a bit of sociopath’s traits sometimes. I think my life would be easier.
Society tends to blame these people for how they act as if it was their choice when Neuropsychology has found that these "behaviour disorders" like every other disorder studied to date has a physiological cause, malformations in the brain which means it is not something you can just control and they are literally a victim of their own brains deviations from the average human brain. We should be helping these people rather than blaming them and punishing them for what they can not control (they can often learn how to with help). One of our biggest flaws is our need to fault find rather than taking nature as just that, nature. Dualistic thinking is a man made construct existing no where in nature, nature is not good nor is it evil, it just simply is and we as humans have a hard time accepting the fact that nature isn't all sunshine and roses, sometimes genetics and brain injuries can lead to people and/or animals doing unwholesome things.
The soul is not a brain. Being evil is a choice. Inflicting pain is a choice. No remorse is indicative of disassociation. Disassociation stems from transgressions and these justify the condition. The soul runs the body, not the other way around. 🤔

I am not a empathic person in real life. I am more cold, indifferent towards people feelings and most people know that I am cold, emotionless, indifferent, unapproachable person…. But it’s because I was severe traumatized when I was a child, teenager, not a choice, I didn’t ask to be like this people made me into this cold person. I don’t do no harm towards people but i don’t give a f about people feelings either when they share emotional story…I can do severe harm if you push my berserk button but you need to push on deeper level to trigger me, than I can be sociopathic….I can read people like a open book as well. I have impulsive problems especially with speech pattern saying things without thinking and not following society rules because only sheep follow rules…. But the question is do I see myself a ‘’sociopath’’? No….I see myself more of ‘’indifferent’’ thanks for the video. I am 35.
Yes, but we also have morals. We might not feel anything when we lie or when something goes bad, but most often acting like we do gives us more leverage in the social interaction. But if i don't need it i can't be bothered
I had a lot of sociopathic tendencies in my late teens-early 20’s. I almost never smiled, cared only about myself (lost a relationship that I realized I cared about once we broke up because of it), I hated small talk (still do actually), and never considered other peoples issues. Now, after some mushroom trips and healing from that 5 year relationship, I smile a lot, I’m always making people laugh, I’m always happy (even after being set up by a girl in Chicago, jumped by 5 of her guy friends, and robbed a few days ago). I love life!
Okay minus the empathy part cz having empathy is a gift or at least I feel that way I wish if I could experience little to no anxiety. Like this is the only trait that I want.
You sound like someone who didn't have severe insomnia far into their adulthood because you couldn't sleep as a child out of fear that the mentally ill in your house will sneak up on you in your sleep and end you. How often did you sleep in your car because your dad went on bipolar fuelled rages for WEEKS where he'd destroy the entire interior of the house every night and abuse everyone? You never went through that. Pay for my therapy and I maybe change my opinion 🤡
The problem in this is they actually do put themselves in others shoes, in doing this they know they wont be respected, becauze in their own shoes they still arent respected. . . So laack of empathy is because thats an alien concept to their understanding
So it's sounding like I am definitely a sociopath. I guess that makes sense. I don't really get upset easily, and I don't understand other people's emotions very well.
And there was nothing wrong with being this way until we started to live in a society, those traits helped human ancestors to survive in wild far longer than the entire timespan of society, and they will likely persist long after it's downfall. Prisoners of rules, agents of chaos
@@user-fl7vw5mv3fhunter-gatherers were still very social. As long as these traits remain rare it can be an advantage for some to get by through stealing, killing, etc
i grew up as an empath but now these traits are a matter of choice to me. i don't care most of the times. i even passed several tests because i thought i belong to one of those two types of personality. the results say i am rather not among them tho😸but i feel no anxiety and no empathy most of the times. prob because i simply have no one to care abt🤷🙃when i do i am the most caring love filled purrball😸
My ex try’s to tell me that I am the abusive antisocial person, when she is the one with NPD and only wants $$ all the time. Meanwhile our short marriage and her abuse gave me debilitating anxiety and depression! How can I be the one with the issues? OMG , I am dying , I know it !
What about consequences? They may not empathize or get anxious. They may enjoy the adrenalin of hurting people, but their aware of the potential consequences, so selfish self awareness keeps some people on the road. Opportunism of course is something else.
I still don’t buy the whole “no empathy” thing. I understand that’s what the smart people say, and I want to believe, it just sounds utterly impossible
My little working hypothesis is they are neurotypicals who have figured out that instead of society controlling them, by controlling their environment they indirectly control/free themselves. Empathy is a casualty on that because otherwise they can't have control.
I actually cannot agree with your hypothesis. Individuals who have been diagnosed with ASPD struggle with the idea of self as well as the idea of others. Empathy is a learned trait and 100% can be learned and practiced by anyone including an individual with ASPD though they don't come by it naturally. However they are empty inside and struggle to feel alive hence the adrenaline chasing the dopamine chasing the substance abuse. They're not mastermind invulnerable superpowered monsters.
Dont use certain . Or thus is. Tge doirs are often hudden ie a person low will hide or a nirmal bepsopathlogical to be ie fed up with me. Th3se confyse these labela . Use maybe have you had a nice time . Is my life ok . Oh hi . Hello is the journey your on the way you want yo be . So not to labels it is easy to be knicjed off a normal life the tumbling down then results in otger diffucuktirs . Also we learn not to be ill and hemce away from scammers
There are plenty of off buttons. Ppl with ASPD aren't invulnerable super powered monsters. They are impulsive, have a hard time keeping a job, self-indulgent, struggle with substance abuse, struggle with self image, the idea of self, and the idea of other people as actual people. Always chase something because inside they struggle with feeling alive. Empathy can be learned and practiced even by someone suffering from ASPD but classically they have to work at it.
@@devinsmith7793 You have lot to learn about the lengths they need to go to so as to establish self relevance and arrive at the top of each interaction, you're right in what you say, but your thinking you're smarter than what you are😉
Yo, little to know anxiety and not giving shit about people seems like it would actually be pretty useful in this society. Those are the people who become successful.
Psycopathic/sociopathic people are not born; they are created by this gentile nation. That's what people are referring to when they say they didn't know the sweet neighbor was capable of murder. Because at one point, they were perfectly normal 😔
Yikes, maybe stick to biology-the purpose of this channel. Spreading pop-psych stereotypes and fueling the stigmas of misunderstood diagnoses is very disappointing
calling it a disorder is kinda bogus, what if the tables were turned and what we consider to be normal personalities only because they're most common, were actually the most rare.

Okay minus the empathy part cz having empathy is a gift or at least I feel that way I wish if I could experience little to no anxiety. Like this is the only trait that I want.
But to know what not having anxiety does you need to have experienced anxiety.
Means you’re only human thinking of the future. In order to eliminate anxiety, think only in the present.

definitely known a few, sadly I am anxious AF and those types enjoy pushing my buttons
:/ demonizing mental health again
You sound like someone who didn't have severe insomnia far into their adulthood because you couldn't sleep as a child out of fear that the mentally ill in your house will sneak up on you in your sleep and end you.
How often did you sleep in your car because your dad went on bipolar fuelled rages for WEEKS where he'd destroy the entire interior of the house every night and abuse everyone? You never went through that.
Pay for my therapy and I maybe change my opinion 🤡
@sundiver9074 yes it is. Cope harder
@sundiver9074 ok loser. Stay ignorant forever. And your words will eventually bite you back in the future 🙄
@@derboe_thebeast6869it’s literally just science
@@ch0colatechum that's a very vague statement. Wdym "it's basically science" like what the hell are you implying.
The problem in this is they actually do put themselves in others shoes, in doing this they know they wont be respected, becauze in their own shoes they still arent respected. . . So laack of empathy is because thats an alien concept to their understanding
Fiction teaches us that they are the perfect humans.
Im interested in to think how empathogens such as MDMA would have on them in the use case of MDMA assisted psychotherapy.
So it's sounding like I am definitely a sociopath. I guess that makes sense. I don't really get upset easily, and I don't understand other people's emotions very well.
And there was nothing wrong with being this way until we started to live in a society, those traits helped human ancestors to survive in wild far longer than the entire timespan of society, and they will likely persist long after it's downfall. Prisoners of rules, agents of chaos
The hunter-gatherer lifestyle suits them better, unfortunately we live in a society
@@user-fl7vw5mv3fhunter-gatherers were still very social. As long as these traits remain rare it can be an advantage for some to get by through stealing, killing, etc
Basically politicians
i grew up as an empath but now these traits are a matter of choice to me. i don't care most of the times. i even passed several tests because i thought i belong to one of those two types of personality. the results say i am rather not among them tho😸but i feel no anxiety and no empathy most of the times. prob because i simply have no one to care abt🤷🙃when i do i am the most caring love filled purrball😸
"lack of empathy"
So im a psychopath?
This clip has drawn out the Arm Chair Psychiatrists. 🤣🤣🤣
Or...people that deal with mental health daily who are constantly ignored and misunderstood. Welcome to the mental health community
My ex try’s to tell me that I am the abusive antisocial person, when she is the one with NPD and only wants $$ all the time. Meanwhile our short marriage and her abuse gave me debilitating anxiety and depression! How can I be the one with the issues? OMG , I am dying , I know it !
Every driver in my town
What about consequences?
They may not empathize or get anxious. They may enjoy the adrenalin of hurting people, but their aware of the potential consequences, so selfish self awareness keeps some people on the road.
Opportunism of course is something else.
I thought my partner had this until we realized it was undiagnosed autism...was WAY off 🤦♀️
This text about for 99,9% men,s😢
I still don’t buy the whole “no empathy” thing. I understand that’s what the smart people say, and I want to believe, it just sounds utterly impossible
I'm just tired of the BS nowdays that is why IDGAF anymore
So a Narcissist is just a psychopath _with_ anxiety...🤷
Did he just call me a bad person
My little working hypothesis is they are neurotypicals who have figured out that instead of society controlling them, by controlling their environment they indirectly control/free themselves. Empathy is a casualty on that because otherwise they can't have control.
What fo you mean by environment? Like workplace, school etc..?
@@bbbruh8809 I mean the people in their life
I actually cannot agree with your hypothesis. Individuals who have been diagnosed with ASPD struggle with the idea of self as well as the idea of others. Empathy is a learned trait and 100% can be learned and practiced by anyone including an individual with ASPD though they don't come by it naturally. However they are empty inside and struggle to feel alive hence the adrenaline chasing the dopamine chasing the substance abuse. They're not mastermind invulnerable superpowered monsters.
It sounds like you've met one of the people I love most in the world.
No no excitement only regular sunday
You claim their heart rate doesnt chnage then claim they still have "adrenaline" release, so which is it? Major contradiction.
I feel like this guy is down playing the difference between sociopath and psychopath
They're the reason I believe humans are still animals.

Dont use certain . Or thus is. Tge doirs are often hudden ie a person low will hide or a nirmal bepsopathlogical to be ie fed up with me. Th3se confyse these labela . Use maybe have you had a nice time . Is my life ok . Oh hi . Hello is the journey your on the way you want yo be . So not to labels it is easy to be knicjed off a normal life the tumbling down then results in otger diffucuktirs . Also we learn not to be ill and hemce away from scammers
Never make an enemy of one, there is no off button.
😂
There are plenty of off buttons. Ppl with ASPD aren't invulnerable super powered monsters. They are impulsive, have a hard time keeping a job, self-indulgent, struggle with substance abuse, struggle with self image, the idea of self, and the idea of other people as actual people. Always chase something because inside they struggle with feeling alive. Empathy can be learned and practiced even by someone suffering from ASPD but classically they have to work at it.
@@devinsmith7793 You have lot to learn about the lengths they need to go to so as to establish self relevance and arrive at the top of each interaction, you're right in what you say, but your thinking you're smarter than what you are😉
there are plenty of "off buttons" including me just getting bored and forgetting you exist.
@@katebontrager3782 Great strategy on social media, but in workplace or social group that really doesn't work.
Yo, little to know anxiety and not giving shit about people seems like it would actually be pretty useful in this society. Those are the people who become successful.
I think I'm slowly becoming nihilist🫥
Politicians and corporate leaders?
So our politicians are sociopaths or psychopaths.
Wait, won't that mean if they help someone, they don't feel good about it either
And they become cops...
This video made a lot of ppl take a look in the mirror 😂
Sounds like an ex-president
Current one as well. Not to mention most past ones.
Barack??

Hello mudder. Hello fadder.
Psycopathic/sociopathic people are not born; they are created by this gentile nation. That's what people are referring to when they say they didn't know the sweet neighbor was capable of murder. Because at one point, they were perfectly normal 😔
Yikes, maybe stick to biology-the purpose of this channel. Spreading pop-psych stereotypes and fueling the stigmas of misunderstood diagnoses is very disappointing
calling it a disorder is kinda bogus, what if the tables were turned and what we consider to be normal personalities only because they're most common, were actually the most rare.
I know alot of people like this
My EX.
What is the opposite of that?
That was a picture of his ex girlfriend lol
Is this a bad thing? Xuz i rarely show empathy almost never but i pretend to do so, so that people dont think im crazy
You don't show empathy, you feel it. Sympathy is what you show and empathy is what drives you to show it.
So politicians
😮
As someone with severe anxiety and high sensitivity, I wish I had this disorder.
You don’t want the pendulum to swing to the other extreme. Aim for balance not sociopath
@@MA-zg2pz Yeagh
@sundiver9074 oh my🥺 tq for saying this but I don't think so.
I'm smelling some bad rep
Bro explained my personality better than myself.
So what are the main differences between them then?
psychopaths can act/appear normal in a social circumstance and may appear normal to others whereas for a sociopath its more difficult
