    You just described my mother. Although her primary target was not my father, it was me. She would actually take it a step further where she would manipulate my father into being upset with me triggering a rage that he would then take out on me, never knowing his anger toward me was all fueled by falsehoods simply to create chaos and pain for her enjoyment. The more my father abused me the more delighted she became and the more he would then be praised.

      @@carmacollins521 I'm sorry to hear that. It takes a lot of courage to grow up alone and without love and support, and it can take a lifetime to heal.
      As an empath I can't even fathom how anyone could find joy in causing someone's suffering.
      I chose to distance myself for my own health and well-being, but I wondered what my mother would do once her scapegoat vacated.
      Who would she find to blame in my place?
      Well (as we now have learned) she began tormenting my father. She would make up injuries that he caused her and frame him as an abuser and began injecting him with lethal doses of insulin while he was sleeping. He would fall and collapse to the floor and she would call an ambulance and were miraculously able to revive him in the ER and kept him for several days to stabilized his blood sugar.
      After so many ER events they kept him for more testing. Fortunately my father survived all of these attempts. but the hospital became suspicious and reported their conclusion of insulin overdose to the Adult Protective Services.
      The investigator questioned all of us about my mother's motives which revealed that she was not bothering to check his blood sugar before giving his injections.
      They were unsure if she was attempting to murder him or not.
      All these years he's been suffering with all these emergency visits, falling, having horrible symptoms, and wishing he was dead, never knowing he was being POISONED 😭 !!!
      He didn't know, no one did until the investigation began and revealed what my mother had been doing this for who knows how many years. As a result of her last injection that nearly killed him he is now in hospice and I will probably never see him alive again.
      She did reach out to me a month or two prior and asked me to put him in an assisted living facility so that she wouldn't have to deal him anymore and wished he was gone. She wanted him out because his dementia irritates her. This didn't make sense to me, but I trusted her word that he was being difficult so I looked into it and learned that there was no basis to any of it.
      It was after that call that she aggressively started injecting him with dangerous levels of insulin BUT was telling me that he was being hospitalized for other reasons like his so-called bizarre psychotic rages. I couldn't make sense of this but NOW WE ALL KNOW that's how she was covering up his horrible symptoms of insulin overdose and of near diabetic coma that SHE WAS inducing.
      My head is spinning from shock and heart is crushing in agony knowing how much he must have suffered for, who knows how many years, while innocently trusting that she was lovingly caring for his needs.
      This is by far the worst level of betrayal I can imagine... harming a helpless person in need that has put their life in the hands of someone they trust to care for them with their highest good in mind.
      This was worse than having her do it to me. To this day I still don't believe that my father knows what she had been doing. But since she is now under investigation the lethal insulin overdose injections have stopped. Who knows what she's feeding him or if she is even feeding him at all. He complains often that he's very hungry.
      I have no power or authority so I can do is pray. But I was honest with the investigator and let him know that she confessed that her ultimate goal was to have him removed from the home. I'm sure she's not happy that I revealed her intentions.
      I chose to do the right thing for the right reason. I'm not about to be a co-conspirator to whatever it is she's up to. My goal is to save my father's life and to help the investigation.
      Sorry about the long message but basically this is the kind of thing that happens when you are dealing with a narcissistic psychopath. This is the kind of family dynamics it plays out when you're dealing with someone that is so mentally ill.
      I don't know if there is a perfect antidote for all this chaos, but I do know that Psychopaths rule the world.
      I suppose acceptance of what is and forgiveness to the hurt people that are hurting people.
      We each have free will to behave as we like and all we can personally do is change our own perception of what we observe and raise those souls it into a higher chamber where Divinity may reach those that may have previously been denied. ✨🙏💕🌿

    My second marriage seems like an excellent case study for this topic- it could've gone fully through the Jerry Springer wringer. When your wife starts deliberately coloring so far outside the lines and openly abuses you, there are no good answers. Whether you stand up for yourself or play along, the abuse will intensify. That marriage's descent into madness and abuse was so very gradual that I was the proverbial frog in the boiling water. Had to play the separation/divorce/retirement cards extremely close to the chest lest I lose everything. One thing's for sure, no woman is worth wearing orange for 20-life over. Any man going through this should start planning his escape- the marriage may never get better, but life is certain to once he is able to extricate himself.

      Erik Wade abusers never show their true colors right away. It’s always gradual, otherwise it would be too easy for their victims to escape. However, I’ll bet there were a few very small things she did before you were married that you made an excuse for (she probably gave her most sincere apology) so you forgave. I know that was the case with my husband. I look back and I can pinpoint a few things he did that were red flags, but he profusely apologized and said that’s not really who he is. I should have known by the fact that he was so anxious to get married. There aren’t a lot of men who are dying to get married. And as you know, I’ll bet your ex wife got worse after “I Do”. It’s in their nature. The more vulnerable you are, the more emboldened they are. Glad you got out.

    My dad had full blown sadistic personality disorder. He would laugh hysterically when something tragic happened to one of us. His happiness in life came when others were in pain. He was very violent and filled with a deep hatred that I never understood. The stories I could tell. We all have CPTSD because of this.
    He should’ve never had kids 🙁
    Does anyone have any idea what CAUSES this? I checked with his family and they said he was the first boy and his mother doted on him. His father was a very kind man. He got in trouble when he was a boy for fighting and he was in corrigible. That’s all I know.

    Demeaning behaviors.
    Emotional deficit towards violence.
    Violence is acceptable to meet goals and receive pleasure from violence.
    Lack of empathy - SP tend to have cognitive empathy to gain please from sadistic act. But they don’t have sympathy.
    1. Wife betrays cooperative husband to make them suffer.
    2. Wife embarrasses Husband in public. She enjoys seeing him embarrassed.
    3. Causes heated argument and then leaves. She knows that unresolved arguments cause pain.
    4. Infidelity to cause husband pain. Inadequate.
    5. Interfering with care. Husband in hospital and wife in room. He’s in pain. Wife says I’ll find nurse but doesn’t. “Oh I meant to do but got sidetracked.”
    6. Waiting for audience to deliver bad news. Wife knows first and wants to tell him but wants audience.
    7. Wife magnifies husbands concern. Like symptoms to cause stress.
    8. Fantasizing husband dies or gets hurt, be there & have on video.

    10. We tend to see this happen when her own mortality is threatened, like an narcissist.

    Here is an example: When my son was about 7 he wanted to ride his bike to his friend's house. I practiced with him a few times, then sent him off with a reminder to call me when he got there to let me know he arrived safely. After about 15 minutes I called his mom at work to let her know. She started screaming at me about how he could be abducted and raped and murdered. I immediately called the other kid's house and the mom (with whom my son's mother is good friends) told me my son arrived about ten minutes ago and she'd already called his mom to tell her. So when my son's mother was screaming at me on the phone, she already knew he'd arrived safely.

    I think all the "behaviors" you've described are common to all narcissists with sadistic tendencies. I've seen them all in all kinds of people in all kinds of relationships, "up close and personal" and at a distance. I think sadism is common in most or all narcissists, and it's good to be more aware of how they coincide.

    This sounds like my ex girlfriend. She did one more thing though. She could make up a story or a situation that would have boosted me in some direction carreerwise etc, just to then "take it away" since it wasn't true just to create dissapointment.
    She even made made up phonecalls to people in the music industry. People that didn't even existed telling me they had heard my recordings and needed a guitarist like me etc. After watching this video at least I'm figuring this out. I can't come up with a better explanation than that it was a manifistation of sadism. She created faked e-mail adresses on where they contacted me from etc and eventually I figured it all out. Back then I thought she was a pathological liar, but when taking everything else she did into consideration I guess she was sadistic. She even had a book on medevil torture contraptions she got in her early teens which I thought was weird. Never sadistic during sex though. However I hold no grudge against her at all. It became a bit too much eventually. She could be very loving as well though.
    She also liked to dress in a innaproparate manner to shame me. She could come to my office where I worked dressed as a trashy hooker just to shame me. At the office we had big windows to the outside. And just outside theres a green sandbox which is used during the winter to sand the ground. On that sandbox she could sit (indian sitting I think its called) smoking, dressed as a trashy hooker, waiting for me to end my shift. My office was a very formal place so it became a extra stark contrast from how I was dressed.
    First time rhat happened I got really upset and asked what she was doing. Shw just replied like she didnt know what I was talking about. She also brought a "friend" to witness it all, and made me look lika a total jerk. At the same time I'm sure she took pleasure in it. Same thing happend when we went to my cousins birthday party, but by than I had stopped caring. And when I did, she stopped dressing like that.

      @@genevawelch9865 Yeah. She also self harmed. So pathological lying, dressed like I told earlier from time to time. Always had to be the center of attention. But she also had hallucinations every now and then. And threw temper tantrums in public and could get violent. Mostly if we had been out drinking a little and were on our way home. I eventually developed burn out syndrome. Not only because of the relationship but it was probably a contributing factor. She tried commit suecide one time and by overdosing sleeping pills and was hospitolised for a couple of days. But as I said. I hold no grude at all. I even miss her a lot since all of her bad sides had equally big good sides. And she was never boring to be around. And heck, I'm not perfect eiter.
      I just couldn't keep up after I became sick and she didn't seem to take it as serious as it actually was or the fact that my health became centre of attention and not hers. Now two years later I instead was diagnosed with ME/CFS since I not only didnt recover. I never seem to get any better either.

      I agree with you on helping others. If I find anyone suffering... I hope I will be able to help them too. By the way... I think Nancy may be drunk. Anyone should be able to understand there are different stages of healing from narc abuse. I heard that some heroin addicts said narc abuse pain is many times more powerful than the pain of needing heroin. It is a lot to deal with. If you still love someone it is not a crime. It is simply an indicator that you do not reside in the malignant narc world. I think Nancy is aware of all aspects of her remark. She can be identified in the same way as one could identify a tree while you are on a canoe floating down a river. Some trees may be snarled, dead or broken. So it is better to enjoy the voyage by enjoying the beautiful aspects of scenery. It is better to truly enjoy the beautiful things in life and enrich ourselves with knowledge, ethics, strength and power. I think it is important to not be drawn in by sarcastic sadistic people. This is something I am personally working on. You have my highest respect and best wishes.

    It has really enlightened and given context to a lot of experiences from my childhood.
    I thoroughly enjoyed your video on borderline+psychopathic couples, and wondered if you could -please-do a video on how a relationship with someone that has Histrionic Personality Disorder manifests itself. Especially if someone has prior PTSD, clinical depression and anxiety walking into the relationship.
    HPD seems to be a very under-discussed disorder, yet very real.

    Of course, I am not a mental health professional, although I have taken a deep interest in the subject since I was young and would have entered the field if I had the opportunity when I graduated high school twenty years ago. You are SO GOOD at explaining these complicated mental health topics. My ex-wife has displayed 10/10 of these traits during our 11 year marriage and even during the 4 1/2 years since we separated and divorced. And my family wonders why I'm so concerned for my son's welfare.🤦🏾‍♂️ We definitely need more well-versed, caring, objective clinicians like Dr. Grande to raise awareness and help people who are actually seeking treatment to get better.

A childhood friend started laughing hysterically when I fell down a hill as we were walking. ( we were high on cannabis lol) He tried to stop laughing but could not, so I told him one day he would fall and I would laugh, and just by chance he ended up falling down a few of my mothers steps the very next day and I couldn’t believe it happened right before my eyes so soon after his laughing at me...so I laughed hysterically when he fell!! However he was soon laughing with me. I always remembered it because I liked him more then I ever let him know, 😃

      I think he said they cognitively can understand your suffering that is because they suffer like this and have learned to get rid of their own suffering by making you suffer. So say your brother hits you, well if you hit him back you feel immediate relief. So say your boss hits you well you can't hit him back so you wait till you get home and then you use your wife to hit to get relief. That's just my guess I'm not positive. So they lack empathy. It's really primitive. If you think about it. You know they probably learn how to push you just enough not to make you leave and if you do leave, they'll just find somebody else.

Then like so many dependent, needy people, she ended up with someone probably much worse. Although she always worked, and had the support of her extended family, she was unable to understand that she would be better off unencumbered unless her partner was an asset. After a ver brief honeymoon, throughout my childhood their boozy fights and her obvious dislike were obvious to a child.

    Hotel California Lyrics
    On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
    Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
    Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
    My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
    I had to stop for the night.
    There she stood in the doorway;
    I heard the mission bell
    And I was thinking to myself
    'This could be heaven or this could be Hell'
    Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
    There were voices down the corridor,
    I thought I heard them say
    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Such a lovely face.
    Plenty of room at the Hotel California
    Any time of year (any time of year) you can find it here
    Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
    She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
    How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
    Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
    So I called up the Captain,
    'Please bring me my wine'
    He said, 'we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine'
    And still those voices are calling from far away,
    Wake you up in the middle of the night
    Just to hear them say"
    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Such a lovely face.
    They livin' it up at the Hotel California
    What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your alibis
    Mirrors on the ceiling,
    The pink champagne on ice
    And she said, 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
    And in the master's chambers,
    They gathered for the feast
    They stab it with their steely knives,
    But they just can't kill the beast
    Last thing I remember, I was
    Running for the door
    I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
    'Relax' said the night man,
    'We are programmed to receive.
    You can check out any time you like,
    But you can never leave!'

      Here are my thoughts:
      Causation is difficult to identify when both chaos and complexity factors are obscuringly prevalent.
      I attempt to first remove the layer of chaos, place this aside and then try to simplify the complexity as best as possible.
      In this instance the chaos primarily manifests in the bewildering interfacing interactions the observer experiences. Putting this aside momentarily, the complexity may well likely simplify to long ago and deep damage to or neglect of the child trapped within; screaming for a way out.
      Replacing the layer of chaos allows understanding of an approach to causation and the resulting bewildering manifestations.
      The damage or neglect (or both) needs careful consideration for the strategy and tactics of moving forward for all involved.

      according to JAMA about .2% (thats point 2 percent) of the population has Sadistic Personality disorder.
      While these traits may seem familar to you, personality disorders have a way of resembling each other because they are on a spectrum. Even some psychologists make mistakes in diagnosing.
      I thought my mother had Borderline Peronslity disorder. She did BUT earlier this year I discovered that she also had Narcissitic Personlity disorder. While she did have some sadistic traits she squarely fit into the Borderline/Narcissism category. I had lots of help figuring that out too.

      The women I've known with this problem would all but certainly not be watching this, because they have no interest in introspection or psychology and they see no reason to change themselves. I think that's what Dr. Grande means when he says they're "mentally ill," and it seems to confirm my experience. Just my observation. It's taken some time to get my mind around it, so to speak.

      I've never experienced that. Among the people I've known to be sadistic, almost all have had no interest in psychology. They learn as they go, and they're quick learners; they learn from experience and from their own abnormal psychology.
      Maybe you know something I don't know. I guess "trolls" could be something like what you have in mind.

      Confusion between pleasure and pain is likely the deepest confusion anyone can know.
      Imagine burning your hand on a stove and feeling pleasure, enjoying it--you'd be in trouble; imagine seeing someone else burn a hand and enjoying watching his or her shock and pain; it's difficult to imagine, but there are people who enjoy other people's pain.
      I've had women in my family with this problem, and known women in circles of friends and acquaintances, and worked with women, who've had it, too, but I've never been romantically involved with one, thank god or the goddess. (And the problem is not confined to women, of course.)
      I think the confusion goes way back, probably to infancy; back beyond the sick person's conscious memory.
      I think people who experience pain as pleasure have serious difficulty feeling the real pleasure that's possible between healthy people.
      Be careful when you choose your friends, because they'll be with you a long time; even after they're gone.

      Eman Abdelmawla I’m not a therapist and have no credentials. But my understanding is narcissistic rage is an angry response usually to a blow to there self esteem. Sadism is having feelings of joy by causing pain and discomfort to someone else if not physically then atleast verbally. Embarrassing them or demeaning and hurting their feelings. But narcissistic rage I think is an angry response. Like a sadist would have fun hurting people even if they didn’t have a blow to their self esteem.They wouldn’t need to be angry they just straight up feel good hurting people I think.

      I have personally found that these fear-based emotional conditions are definitely imprinted on the fetus, but it is not genetic. The emotional imprinting and the lack of love and nurturing withheld by a sadistic parent is traumatic enough to create PDs in the child that will manifest into adulthood. Traumas that takes place during hardwiring can actually alter the pathology of the child's brain permanently.

    for any GoT fans, Ramsay Bolton is often though of as having Antisocial Personality Disorder but I actually think he more closely aligns with Sadistic Personality Disorder! I read a really great argument for Sexual Sadism Disorder for him as well so there's a bit of discussion on this topic.
    the topic of sadism is so taboo and I think we like to pretend that it's rare or doesn't exist at all but it does! I think everyone has had at least a moment of sadistic thought or action in their lives. think of the school bully who is acting that way because he is bullied at home. if we as a society could learn to identify sadism and its causes, we could redirect it appropriately and reduce it as well. (for example, I do think BDSM is an appropriate redirection of sadistic thought and action)

    is it possible SPT to be connected to ASPD \ Type2psyhopaty ,because of emotions included . I think i was observing all aspects of SPD with a person having already been diagnosed with ASPD... i was unaware of . .but could see all signs as presented in this video... Might be its next step from ASPD. ..in personality development. But its not so obvious, for nonprofessional person like myself. But .. . I mostly "spoil" the game... or i do not show reaction when i became more aware , its not much you can do in a moment ..when you are in a trouble and someone close wants to see you more suffering. You ask yourself why?!@, but you do not see what emotions are going on inside that person. ..especially if person is seemingly calm or as usual while doing it. finally that person asked me" how are you so confident" when it was not able to penetrate any more .or whatever was trying.. .but continued the same game... Than i start to lough about ... when i realised.Than i spent time whit this person just to "Study" -WHATS GOING ON " ...to lern ....THE REASON I WAS GOING DEEPER INTO RELATIONshIP WITH THIS PERSON IS OBVIOUS PRESENCE OF EMOTIONS.. , LIKE WHATEVER YOU DO IS UNDERSTOOD BY THIS PERSON .AND EMOTIONALY UNDERSTOOD, BUT LIKE YOU SAID, THE MAIN DIFERENCE , YOU COULD SEE COGNITIVE EMPATY BUT NO AFECTIVE EMPATY... SO THE PERSON COULD FOLLOW YOU EMOTIONALLY ALLWAYS, BUT WHERE AFFECTION SUPPOSE TO COME THERE COMES SP...OFTEN WHEN YOU ARE NOT EXPECTING ..

    I cannot understand why this terminology of SP which is important was taken off from the previous DSM criteria and replaced with the blanket term of APD. Makes no sense.

    I had an old BF like that. Completely WIRED for serving up intermittent disaster to relish, like a dessert. A veiled history of this since childhood. He had every learning opportunity available. He converted it all to just another form of the same bad game. Outcome- him smirking into the faces of his staged observers. The more complex, intricate, and surprise, the more prolonged agony- the better. He explained it away saying he was an attorney. He journaled and collected maneuvers to advance. At the drop of a hat, on so called friends, “just to test the outcome” he would drop a disaster on a table of invited guests, then journal their responses. He did for a time make great $ rewards. If he could trick and flip a jury in front of a judge. Not just any judge, but “a good judge”- he would whisper with glee under his breath “look at that judges eyes”, voicing it over and over for a week after. It got old.

    I apologize for being off-topic, but I was wondering if you would mind discussing the owner of McKamey Manor and what the heck you think is going on there mental-health wise? He’s been diagnosed with quite a few disorders, namely OCD, but they hardly account for the entirety of his publicized actions, alleged or otherwise. It really is quite the rabbit hole once you start researching (a very gruesome rabbit hole), and it also has me wondering why people choose to go to these “realistic” haunts. I’d really like to understand the thought process that would guide a person to seek what the majority of people abhor.

    And is there a counterpart for this, a masochistic personality-type who receives pleasure from receiving pain and suffering? Might the two types hit it off? Or would the masochist’s pleasure in being on the receiving end dilute the pleasure of the sadist who needs to see that they’ve dealt sufficient unwanted damage? This personality-type would have been manifest even in childhood? It seems to have very dangerous potential. Thank you, Dr. Grande, for bringing some of the more shadowy traits into the light.

  • @FrancesShear
    @FrancesShear 4 роки тому

    I agree with the idea that maybe Sadistic Personality disorder should be added to the DSM if there begins to be a need for it in clinical practice again. My own reasoning for believing that is when a person has been practising both narcissism and aggresion in psychopathy for so long that they have lost the ability to express affective empathy along with cognitive empathy because they have not exercising it when at the same time they are showing a definite pattern of getting pleasure out of causing other people pain. There is more of a risk of people in some occupations like dentistry developing that kind of personality disorder than in other kinds of occupations.
