    Psychopathy is a whole nother level. I literally saw the haughty mode in devalue overnight in him. One day fine, the next i was thinking somethings happened but i dont know what. The mask drop at the end. He looked 5yrs old seriously. It gives you a whole new world view. Dr jekyll and mr hyde movie...i was running let me tell you! You are just not expecting what you see. He was living in the moment. They are award winning grammy actors. Would love to be able to talk with you guys...this was 4 years ago. I looked into that mans eyes many times. Let me tell you he cannot fall in love. He knew he told me what he was.please do not minimalise this as it ruined my life. I do feel for them though. Not being able to connect properly to people..

      A psychopath would tear this lady to shreds. She wouldn't even see it coming. They leave u in a mess on the floor hypothetically and u have to rebuild best way you can. I can see who would be a choice as a target now. She should not wish to know one of these people. The damage is major and no going back to the old naive you...

      Yeah well...they have a huge motivation to put in the "hardwork." Which "hardwork" to them is about working the staff and the system to get what they want.
      Fooling people is what they do and it helps them to gain additional privages or possibly freedom to ultimately get out if they choose to pretend to change or cooperate. They know how to work people and the system...but they would never do that? Lol
      That's the kind of magical and wishful thinking they love to exploit.

      Recently saw an old documentary about Wayne Williams. He talked about nice stuff all the time and had pictures of pleasant things on his prison wall and you thought: He seems alright and harmless!
      Yet he scores 40 out of 40 on the Hare List and killed his brother on purpose by staging an accident when he was ten.
      And he talks about that in a perfectly calm tone as if he talked about breakfast. It was absolutely CHILLING.
      I wouldn’t call them monsters because that is an assessment that comes from empathic people, but certainly they have to be excluded from society for the safety of everyone else. But since it raises whole new questions what to do with them, people sugarcoat it and want to „heal them with therapy“ because that’s the empathic thing to do.

    Interesting, but I have an emotional need as a medical doctor and to make my internal mess complite, I was a German where 'Schema Therapy' was born. Therapy means healing. I think it sets wrong exspectations. More so as it is used more and more in interaction with pasychopaths. I would call it a treatment. Or at least think it that way. I am driven by the idea of high resonsability to protect society and not to declare healing as a result of grandious therapeutic work.
    What are the numbers of healt (you would maybe say no more that dangerous inmates), who had reduced their sentence based on your estimation?
    What are the statistics of crimes in this groupe after jail?
    What are the numbers of crimes who served the whole sentence?
    What are the numbers of new crimes of released inmates who didn't engeged in treatment?
    Do you have an opinion what individuals have a better social prognosis 1.or 2. psychopaths?

    An "evil" person or a "monster" is someone who has done and proven they are capable of more of those evil, monsterous and unthinkable acts.
    That doesnt mean they do that 24/7 but the dangers are very real and they have proven its been done by them and more likely than not of them doing it again.
    Theraphy like a lion trainer may appear to train or break lions of their past behaviors but really have not. At any time they can take on the upper hand if you are not controlling them and everything around them at all times.
    Trying to paint the people who murder and do very abusive behaviors as anything but not... is the very same rational the abused use when they are in denial of the harm in front of them yet they stay in it...Its the wounded past empathy trap that the abusers uses to keep their prey under their spell.
    So what, they are messed up because of how they were treated they are still what they have become...that's how they munipulate their prey to think of them as tamed when they are like wild animals instead.
    Until you have been literally touched by an evil person in your personal life you or others around you first hand you will never get that ....unless you stay in denial of that reality...
    You can study it all you want and even be around them when they are in prison. They are different when they need something from you and they are getting it than when they are not... They play games and the more free they are to be themselves and no longer need to play by the rules within the system.... its a whole different deal...If they don't feel they need to follow rules they use them against the rest of us.
    Speaking from knowing a family annialator personally and being married to a man who tried to kill them.... Yes in both cases they were the guys everyone loved and admired including me. The worst monsters don't come to you as monsters they come to you as loved ones and respected people to gain relationships from you and bring you one you thought you have always dreamed of but its all an illusion...That's what evil does... it comes in disquise and this evil does exist.
    I am no longer fooled...but feel the worst for those who don't see it as what it is, evil coming or people are too arrogant or disillusioned to believe it is possible that they will change. 😂😂😂😂😂
    Those are the ones they will use, abuse, exploit and destroy if they can. They are fooling you or you are in a Narcissisic state of an ego that thinks you are the very one who can save them.
    They don't want to change, what they do is how they operate at the core and its too late for them but not for us to learn from, leave and avoid then at all cost!!!

      Totally agree. Once you see evil in someone's eyes, you need to run. I had an Aunt that was a psych nurse and worked with, what they called back 20 years ago, the criminally insane in a mental hospital. She thought it was fascinating, but Never thought they should ever get out. She said they could never change because of chemical disorders in the brain. She could spot them easily out in everyday life. The dead or wild eyes was her first indication. Now, again, these were criminally insane.

    As a person who's struggled with NPD and antisocial traits, I'm very concerned about how to reach the more difficult patients. Right now, I find it interesting how an overactive amygdala can sort of "take over" the brain and narrrow-down our executive panorama. But I also wonder whether there's another dimension to this disability, whereby the parts of the brain that allow a space for executive processing may be depressed. So it's not a normal global depression, but maybe a kind of "sector depression" of certain key parts of the brain. Instead of saying people are "missing" aspects of mental functioning, it might be better to say these aspects are depressed. From that viewpoint, maybe research could focus on awakening joy and euthymic states in areas of the brain that are currently "deadened." I'm even curious if body work could help with this, since I think a lot of deadened affect may extend to the nervous system of the body. Just some ideas that occur to me, after spending years (myself) frustrated with the cluster B experience & the feeling that psychology itself may have room to consider completely unprecedented viewpoints in how we conceptualize of the neurological framework that presents these troubling and disabling disorders. I say disabling, because when the executive panorama is sufficiently compromised, we're talking one of the parts of the mind that is most important to even being able to approach a state of behavioral continence.

    • @JD-xd4sy
      @JD-xd4sy Год назад +7

      That's interesting. Another take is that parts might not be exactly "missing" but that brains are wired differently, so the cluster B individual might feel fear and/or some kind of empathy, but for totally different situations than what is normal.

      What a brilliant explanation from the inside! Often somatic involvement can generate brain chemistry that can make rose structural changes using both physical and spiritual exercises and experiences such as tai chi, moving to music and Hatha yoga on the physical side and something as simple as making daily gratitude lists on the spiritual side. Therapy can teach you to be patient with yourself as you grow towards health. It’s ok if your initial motivation is self interest. That is basic human motivation. Wanting to feel better is fine -when we feel better we learn more and when we know better we do better. Good luck to you.

Although, she constantly offered superficial cheer and charm, and, honestly, I came to enjoy being around her. But I never felt she had any deep feelings for anyone, not even her children. She did treasure my grandfather, and she never remarried after his death, but I can't say her feelings for him were that broad... it was more like she treasured him... very strange. But, in the end, I wish psychology could explore more angles for really understanding this condition. Maybe I'm just being hopeful, but I do wonder whether these "missing" aspects of the factor 1's are, maybe, like depressions in the functioning of key parts of the brain. Not comparable to ordinary depression, but still deserving of being called a kind of depression. Once we see it that way, we can then approach, for the first time, the problem of awakening these deadened areas. Maybe I'm just dreaming, but I don't think we should limit the possibility of unprecedented new approaches to what seem to be old problems.

    The sense of revenge, that fantasy you talk, is about getting some justice... at least in our minds! It's not an idea of acting upon it, but rather a "curse" on them, a movie being played where divine justice happens! Because the human justice doesn't work at all... it's very easy for someone who has not been through continuous terror and manipulation, to feel hope about them. Feel free to date them or make friendships with them... but I don't see that from you both, but you expect others to do so? Funny!

      I also have bpd (mixed with avoidant personality disorder and schizoid traits).
      As you, I do not harm other ppl. (But I do harm myself.)
      My sister also has bpd and she unconsciously does harm & manipulate others. Her family is affected by her dysfunctions and it's truly tough to be around her.
      IMO the answer to your confusion is: Not all bpds are the same, simple as that.
      We may share other features with other bpd people, for example:
      - fear of abandonment
      - or big mood swings.
      When it comes to manipulation, most people think about harming others. But one may manipulate by being very helpful for example (yes!). (I'm very helpful, everybody may count on me, including strangers!) Or - by being very good in sex for example, very caring, concentrated on partner's pleasure, satisfaction and good mood. It's not "harming", it's the opposite, but it still can be a manipulation (even unconscious), when it comes e.g. from the fear of abandonment.

      A borderline becomes a secondary psychopath never a primary psychopath. You still have empathy but you have it temporarily switched off when you have been triggered to the point of losing your borderline defenses when feeling abandoned.
      Your empathy is still intact, but it is sidelined while you're in survival mode.
      The psychopath doesn't have a sense of self but the borderline does, albeit fragmented. Therapy will help a borderline individuate, but never a pyschopath.

We all have modes - psychopathic individuals, though, tend to have all the overcompensating modes and often to a much stronger degree than others (so think of a volume dial going from 1 to 10). Generally, in my experience, folks with BPD have very big vulnerable modes that can be accessed in therapy - in psychopathic clients these modes are much less apparent or accessible in therapy.
