      Based on the fact she doesn't care what I say, I've got a lot to say believe me! I can't stand the fact these well intentioned materials completely downplay the massive potential for violence and abuse that is ever present in psychopathy. I appreciate not every psychopath has completed those actions to an illegal degree, and that many without psychopathy have. The point though, is that if a psychopath commits violence or abuse they are guaranteed to have zero emotion about it, be more prolific in those actions, be completely unresponsive to any law enforcement methods of controlling such behaviours, be very unlikely to stop due to zero empathy, guilt, anxiety or conscience about it plus very high levels of dopamine when committing such acts. Those are some pretty strong risk factors, and 30% of the prison population (approx) have psychopathy versus just 1% in the general populous - that's the ones who get caught, and there is a much a higher likelihood that psychopathic criminals won't get caught due to high IQ attributes plus planning and lack of emotional response. That is significant, so please stop cotton candying this disorder like we're being judgemental to think of these things.. how horrible of us. NO just no.

      @@lizjane1349 I'm not sure who is cotton candying anything here, or who this comment is directed against. Sociopathy is a serious set of problems, I'm not sure that anyone denies this. However, I think it is valuable when people who have serious personality disorders (sociopathy, narcissism, borderline, etc.) can be open about it, so that better therapies and social structures can be developed to help them live better and engage in less hurtful behavior. It would be better not to have the personality disorder, but given lack of a cure, it's good to do evidence-based damage control.

      I was fascinated by her eye-accessing cues. Assuming the video isn't inverted (a good assumption when working off film or video), then 90% of her eye movements are to the right side which is 'construction/abstraction' rather than left side which is 'recall/access'. This was an immediate data point for me because even when she's talking about things that sound like they should be "remembered" (more upper/mid-left) and she's locked hard over to the right. Very interesting.

      Stop listening to what your beloved narcissistic Media is telling you about psychopathy. Psychopaths are not necessarily "predators", "sadists", etc. Many of them just perceive the world like a chess game defined by critical thinking skills as opposed to an emotional journey defined by interpersonal connection. Again: consider the fact that you -- I am sure -- are an advocate for the fellow Cluster B personality type of Narcissistic Personality, as that personality type is heavily embraced and encouraged by American culture. In many ways, narcissists can also be predators. What makes narcissistic behavior moral, precisely?

Not every person with a cluster B personality disorder is a predator, but they all have the potential to be which is why certain traits make people weary as avoiding potential predators is an instinct many creatures have. Just like to many small animals, we human beings are predators. Does that mean every single one of us is going to hurt a bunny rabbit or chipmunk or bird we pass by? No, but because the animals have no way of knowing which ones of us are good or bad, they view us all as potential threats until we have proven ourselves as trustworthy

    This is pretty fascinating stuff. It's not like you cross some magic line and then you're quote-unquote "a psychopath." She just has a collection of traits and tendencies that, together, push her out to the fringes of humanity instead of closer to the middle. She's self-aware enough to be able to look at those tendencies objectively and realize that's she's not like other people. She also understands that something is going on with other people, internally, and that she'll never experience that thing (and can't really relate to it), but that it's closer to "normal" than whatever she is. I heard a story about a professor who gave his class a test for psychopathy and he also took the test (just for fun), and when the results came back there was only one obvious psychopath in the class, and it turned out to be him. And he had a stable life with a wife, children, etc. But he described a mindset very similar to this individual.

She is expressing a profound stupidity of a simple concept within the world around her and she’s not embarrassed or alerted by this weakness…she reacts with dismay, just stuck in an unsolvable puzzle that most kindergartners could grasp. More than superficial charm, the biggest red flag I notice when interacting with someone with these traits is how profoundly stupid they can come across in relation to their education or profession. This is amplified because they have so little understanding of their deficiencies, interactions are peppered with a startling experience of disinhibited idiocy coming from the psychopath even when the expressed purpose of the interaction demands the psychopath presenting with the upmost competence. Like a meeting with an attorney. Ironically, Neuro typicals would likely have enough empathy to understand that they need to do “the more dishonest” thing and conceal their true anti social reactions. Maybe present a false compassion, empathy or priority to another.

    I am a narcissist. I knew I had issues with people all the time and I genuinely blamed other people for a long time. Eventually, I realised that it had to be me. I have some help and I read a lot and studied a lot on narcissism and it was awful as it all unfolded. I'm the sort of narcissist with low self-esteem. I thought I had low self-esteem because my father treated me very badly as a child and so I just thought I needed to feel secure in relationships. I do care massively what others think of me and so because of that I never considered I was a narcissist. I thought narcissists thought they were better than everyone and didn't care what anyone thought about them.
    I didn't know narcissists can have incredibly fragile egos and this is why I feel like I'm a victim of other people. Really they are not hurting me, I just think they are.
    Finding out really helped as I now know what to look for. I know when I am manipulating others but it is still my go-to behaviour. I don't date anymore as I don't want to hurt any more women. Emotionally not physically hurt them.
    I'm very lonely and suicidal but I don't think I will kill myself. Thinking about suicide all the time and having grandiose thoughts about my life and things that are all part of it.
    I know people hate narcissists. This makes me sad. I am human and I want to be loved. It's very difficult as everyone goes away. They eventually see me as I do not see myself.
    I was attractive and dated a lot of women and I even understand now that my lack of inhibitions is a part of it.
    I did experience what is called a narcissistic collapse. A realisation that I am not really important to anyone but myself and that I have nothing and am nothing.
    But I cannot tell someone "I'm a narcissist but I am trying to be better". So I cannot have friends or lovers. I'm going to die alone. But I also know people don't feel sorry for narcissists. Fck me! I was just being manipulative right there. See it? It's hilarious as I didn't mean to start being manipulative but then I saw it as I was doing it. That is so crazy. That is what I'm talking about. I was being honest and then started trying to manipulate you the reader into feeling sorry for me. What a piece of crap I am.
    Yep, I need to be alone.

      Realising you have npd is very painful because its another massive blow to your ego but if you can survive it you will eventually emerge from the self pity with new resilience and commit to practising listening, gratitude and humility truly as skills. Its extremely difficult. Eventually with help from a skilled therapist you may be able to have compassion for yourself and how you grew up and then possibly learn to have compassion for others . For others reading this, by compassion i pointedly do not mean empathy. Obviously
      I recommend the book "how to stop being a narcissist" and the series on npd by the youtube channel "borderlinernotes" theres lots of great insight there with more sympathetic approaches for the pwNPD.
      (Again to others reading this, please dont go there and spout more pop psychology swill about abusive exes because we are sick of reading it. Npd is a traumagenic illness and pwNPD need to have a space to talk about their trauma and issues without being excluded for once. Thanks)

      I remember hearing a guy said that narcissists are formed two ways. One way they became a narcissist is they were just born that way , but the other more interesting reason is they may have been neglected or worse as a child, so as a ‘defense’ the brain would provide itself with artificial validation instead of the normal healthy way of receiving some externally for doing good things that actually help people or provide real value. He could be wrong but it made sense.

    I relate how confusing it is for her to state her mind and getting backlash for it. There are thoughts that pop into my head that I have struggle not to verbalize. I rarely verbalized them because I'm not a psychopath. However, standup comedy is a great outlet for that. Simply saying "Jesus died for your sins so I think you can have your daddy's baby" wouldn't fly as a solo statment. However, put in the context of a comedy routine it can be very effective.

I'm hoping to have the evaluation soon and I'm excited and nervous to see what the doctors say. At this point I would be shocked if they said I don't have it.

    Psychopaths lack empathy. So, blaming her for not having empathy for her friend (even if it did hurt her friend) is like blaming a blind person for not catching a ball shot against their friend (even if the ball does hurt their friend). She was sincere to her friend and told her that she couldn't handle it. It would be worse if she stayed by her side and treated her in a cold way.
    What psychopaths CAN do is play by the rules/laws and be sincere and that's really what society can hold them accountable for. No wonder why she loves the law. It provides her with rules to follow, because she cannot trust her absent empathy. And I think that all of us have met psychopaths in our lives but didn't realise it. Not everyone is a killer or abusive. Many just follow the rules.

    Climate change activists or any activists these days would have a really hard time convincing her about anything.

    I'm confused: "Psychopath" isn't technically a diagnosis, is it? Is this in reference to a diagnosis of Antisocial Personality Disorder, or what?

      Psychopaths have a difference in the brain. It's a condition you are born with

      it’s a common synonym, a colloquialism. it’s also to differentiate from sociopathic ASPD, they’re different

      If I’m not mistaken psychopathy is a spectrum and she is completely on one side

      You are both correct and wrong. Psychopathy is on a spectrum, as is almost every malady, but she is far from being an extreme example.

      It is possible to change. I was very selfish when I was young and have learned empathy and consideration. Now it is natural.

      I disagree as she clearly demonstrates behavior well within the realm of Psychopathy.

    It seems little surreal with that joyful and lighthearted music playing along in the background. Like - except for this minor detail; everything is OK. 😂🤔 I am glad that she makes and uploads these RUclips-clips though. Holding on to one-dimensional Hannibal Lecter stereotypes does not help.
