People with psychopathy are responsible for some of the worst crimes known to humankind, making rehabilitation a major concern. However, traditional punishments like jail do not appear to prevent psychopaths from engaging in future criminal acts. Explore the neurobiology of why psychopathic individuals do not respond to punishment in this video.

I don’t know where he’s getting that psychopaths can choose to turn empathy on and off. They have cognitive empathy, they can understand how a person is feeling, but it’s just intellectual, it doesn’t affect them at all. 
@Joltacks nah it’s just a matter of discipline and education
Many times this is true. They can choose to turn it on or off cognitively as long as it doesn’t effect their own life or image due to narcissistic behavioral tendencies. They have to be asked to see the other point of view to even consider turning that switch on.
DO they have cognitive empathy?
people with aspergers and autism have cognitive empathy because they find learning rewarding .. psychopaths are motivated by the fear of loss of rewards within their field of possibilities .. they dont aim beyond that.. there is no emotional reward for them in figuring out why someone is sad beyond how they can i use it to gain immediate or on the horizon reward . also they dont percieve a person as like themselves . this is not cognitive empathy .. this is very surface level objectification
@@Fx_- all due respect but even if someone has taught you rigorously a logical social view fof the world that doesn't mean you can evaluate appropriate responses to avoid causing pain to others .
People with ASD have intact (in fact heightened) sympathetic arousal and 'emotional contagion' for pain - that's why they can have good cognitive empathy.
Like people with ASD, psychopaths struggle to recognise pain in peoples faces but unlike people with ASD, they have a DEFICIT in feeling physical discomfort from seeing people in physical pain. This affects their ability to learn about situations that cause other people pain. because physical discomfort is arguably our strongest and fastest feedback mechanism for learning anything.
@@Fx_- there's also some compelling research on attention bottlenecks in people with psychopathy which causes a deficiency in avoidance learning when multiple sources of information need prioritizing to adapt and optimise behavior... i.e changes in context conditions can be too much to deal with and very frustrating and might explain why the empathy switch has to stay off if the task isnt manageable
THis kinda answers how can a small amount of people control everybody else. The world is owned by psychopaths
Give the world to me lol
A psychopath would say the same thing
That actually makes a lot of sense!
WHO said That ? Psychopaths run the World huhahahahahahahah I Made the Psychopaths Run they're Sacred Little Girls Who Want Control And Security So They Can Relax And take A Deep Breath and feel safe huhahahahahahahah
@@sitdowndogbreathIt’s a fact. Every world leader is one. It doesn’t take a psychopath to see that, it takes mental clarity.
The "successful" pyschopaths still cause incredible damage, it is just done subtly and within what's legal. Still very dangerous (especially emotionally) to those around them.
So should we just get rid of all these people? If they’re gonna cause all this damage
@@Thugg12 You can't get rid of them. They'll just come back.
They just come with a vengeance.
Just like Bobby Kotick. I don't know why nobody talks about him being a psychopath, I think he even tried to threaten someone with death once
@@Thugg12You can't get rid of cops, doctors, politicians since many of them are psychopaths.
I read about a a study about Inuit people. A question was ask what do you do with people who were like that … "they fall off the ice or don’t come back from hunting trips"
Ancient Wisdom for perennial problems.
They didn’t go on hunting trips were useally staying back impregnating all the women in when they get back from hunting all there women would be pregnant and they would take this person in kill them but the psychopath was in that persons DNA so it made more babies like him “lol the circle of life
NOW THATSSSS WHAT IM TALKIN BOUT. They got the right Idea.🤪

Honestly though tribal living is the way that nature intended us to live and tribal living heals the brain. This is why it's rare to find mental illness among tribal people .... I'm not talking about those living in reservations, that's not natural.
I was training a new guy at work when he told me he was diagnosed as a psychopath. But he assured me “I’m the good kind of psychopath”. He was the kind of psychopath that understood the difference between right and wrong he more or less told me. He was very sociable and got on well with the team but definitely had a nasty edge to him.
No psychopath will tell you that
Guy's trying to be scary
Or he just fooled you into thinking he's one of the good ones lol
Perhaps he is a covert narcissist
@user-kp8il2tj4w
The dude confided in me and of course I’m not going to believe it on those words alone. As I got to know him, things he said and did convinced me that what he said were true. He was in the least very narcissistic in his behaviour. Getting upset at any slight against him. He’d deem you an enemy if you wronged him in any him way.
He’d harbour a grudge like you wouldn’t believe. Over any stupid little thing. His fascination with violence. He’d talk in third person about some pretty dark stuff but I knew he was talking about himself.
He also confided in me of his traumatic childhood that he and his sister suffered at the hands of the Catholic Church. They were both orphans at the Moore River
Mission here in Western Australia.
The guy definitely had problems and overall wasn’t a nice guy to work with. Especially within a small team. He eventually left and we were glad to see the back of him.
So please don’t call me gullible when you don’t even know me.
You keyboard warrior.
@@user-tq8vt8jn8e Who told you that? I’ve watched plenty of interviews with self-confessed psychopaths. There’s psychopaths everywhere in society. In all professions. This guy didn’t go around telling everybody he was one. He confided in me. His sad history. His traumatic childhood. It wasn’t nice. And as I got to know him he definitely displayed traits that he tried to hide. Overall he wasn’t a nice person. He was very nasty at times. Hated everyone. I might have been the only he liked. Although I distrusted him immensely.
I’ve been working with a guy over a year, and couldn’t understand his actions and behaviors. This totally makes sense now. He has directly and indirectly caused myself emotional distress. I lost 60lbs and have panic attacks. Thankfully, I’m interviewing elsewhere today and have been looking to leave. I’ve been with my current company about 5 years, him 1.5, I’m tired of his behavior being justified by others. They aren’t directly impacted or expected to work with him.
Imagine two psychopaths that hate each other. It would be like a home alone movie that's rated R
Not at all, actually. Perhaps children with conduct disorder, but two grown psychopathic men at war would be far more violent than a rated R child's film.
That's war lol
The cluster B BLIND do not "smell" a psychopath, but psychopaths "can smell their own".
The intelligent 'adapted compensated' types who crave for power & control *within government* cause demolition of the Trias Politica FROM THE INSIDE (without "the many" noticing a thing.....until everything collapses around them....and they still do not know WHY....).
I believe you may be referring to 'Girl With the Dragon Tattoo' lol
Nothing will happen because they both know each others games
They hate to be exposed in public but these are the consequences for their crimes
Unfortunately, some of them are just that good at playing the power game. By the time you get to them, they've already established so much high ground and protection for themselves that it's gonna take a full on coordinated effort to bring them down. Then there's also the other controversial side of psychopathic contributions to society in the form of philanthropy. It's not unheard of for giant corps to launder money through charities that do actually give help to poor people in the end, but this forces a society to tolerate their impropriety because it is dependent upon their contributions. The good ones know how to create these kinds of barbs such that you cannot hurt them without also hurting other innocents in the process.
You are confusing them with narcissits.
Psychos don’t empathize, they act
You’re right. It’s like being stuck in a dream. Imagine needing dopamine to breathe. The only time you feel alive is from doing something daring, like sports or something.
@@Punicia best way to describe it is like being a chameleon actor, we dont really have a personality we are whoever we need to be

i didnt really find it a good video bc it feels like its saying that all psychopats commit crimes
Check spelling xx
Only a psychopath would comment to correct spelling, I think that’s the clearest and most obvious sign of psychopathy.
@@Rakibrown111 lols
A psychopath abused me for 2 years and I haven’t been the same since I’ve been trying to get back to who I was I couldn’t imagine doing that to anyone else
What happened?
Take care man, don't show vulnerabilities if you are not prepared for someone that will try to ruin you even further, to death.
I learnt that in life people abuse weak. But I don't think that you are weak, or anybody is. Weakness is a part of being strong. I know it by my friends. They are tough-tough, but in the home they let all of their weaknesses go out and stuff.
It doesn't matter that all people do prey on others, but there are several creatures that will do it, and after hearing that you lost your family, home or job - will try to take what's left for you
how did they abuse u
You probably deserved it.
@@plunderersparadise oh the melodrama is thick in your retort 😢🤢
I totally agree on the empathy being off by default concept, but for me there is also a switch with anxiety. I can feel no anxiety regardless of whether I get a reward or not. That's absolute neutrality mode where you stop carrying about anything even your own existence.
You dont love yourself ?
@@myheatgoesboomboomboom1655 Typically yes, but if presented with no choice I can turn it off.
I have some ASPD traits such as lack of empathy, I can fake empathy, no fear of death etc, but I also have anxiety and panic attacks. I don't care about the future or what bad things i did in the past (i don't have remorse). Even though I'm sociofobic... A lot of things such as job interview or meeting at work lead me to panic attacks, because of my trauma. My narcissistic dad critisized my every move, so now I subconsciously want every one to like me. I'm afraid of them to think that I'm a bad person in their eyes. I dunno how this carelessness in some things and restlessness in others sit together in my personality. For me those are opposite things. I can literally go out naked (obviously i don't do this because i'll go to jail) and i don't care about how i look. On the other hand during my last job interview my pulse was 110-120bpm, even though i took a lot of pills to suppress my panic attack...
I'm really interested how do you turn on\off your anxiety and how it feels. And how you cannot be anxious during some serious stuff. I want to gain the ability to turn my anxiety off
I'm not a native English speaker
@@jozakatkinOdakle si.
@@ent2220 if you love yourself you are somewhere low on the spectrum of ASPD if on there at all, most of us dont have feelings either way thats what it is to have ASPD
It’s not on or off. Its mimicry of “emotions”. The on off is selecting which emotion and when.
My father came to school to pick me up one day and saw one of our teachers' sitting at her desk crying. Our teacher had lost her mother recently. He looked at her and called her a crybaby. She started crying harder, he told her she has fake empathy. She should be glad that her mother is gone...When another teacher asked me what I want to be when I grow up?..I told him that I'm joining the military because my father will never show up to my high school graduation if I dont do something dangerous.
Damn…
What if the phychopath doesn't care about the cookie
😔
@@RiteOfSolaris don't be sad. we escalate to bundt cake!
Was I suppose to feel pain at the nail part? I just thought it was fake
I felt absolutely nothing.
Pretty sure I'm not a psychopath.
...or *ammm* I? 😄
you watch a lot of gore movies , don't you ?
I didn’t feel anything either because I could tell it was fake. If it happened in front of me in real life to someone then I’d hella feel
To me it didn’t matter if it was fake or not. I watched someone not pay attention at the sowing machine and the needle went right through the nail on her middle finger and broke off. I observed what happened and the result with interest. (She didn’t scream or freak out. She had a lot of self-control in spite of the pain she was in.)
Testing psychopathy with a picture is impossible it’s just a placebo
Because pain is pleasure.
Many of psychopaths actually enjoy punishment, humiliation, and abuse being inflicted upon them.
@Joltacks
Tell that to Albert Fish & "Pee Wee” Gaskins.
This just isn't true. Psychopaths are mostly high functioning with egos and self preservation as a primary goal. The weak psychopaths are the criminal ones and they make up the minority.
Most psychopaths don't enjoy anything but the ones you're talking about are sadists and as sigmund freud said - within every sadist is a masochist, and every masochist a sadist. So when it comes to people who are like that yeah, but the only reason it seems like most psychopaths are sadomasochists is because those are the only ones the public ever hears about
Yeah they do and they like to see others like that as well i dated a psychopath
@@sluggy6074 it's their own way of feeling anything at all
They don't have emotional empathy. They have reflexive and cognitive empathy. The high tolerance to adrenaline inhibits anxiety and therefore the responce to pain.. it's easy to hurt others when you can't feel pain. Having to much adrenaline in early childhood causes the amiglida to not develop and therefore the high tolerance to adrenaline. The Soviet Union created psychopaths buy inducing adrenaline in in babies. It can and was created at will. It's not common but every child induced with adrenaline in very early infancy became psychopathic... It's very well understood. It's an adaptive response to harsh environment. It's also a useful trait for totalitarian ruler's to have psychopaths with high intelligence at different levels of the control structure... It is certainly an inability to feel normal emotions and therefore a mechanism unresponsive to shame and guilt commonly shared by 98 % of humans.. but it can certainly be created and it is certainly an adaptive response to adrenaline and an underdeveloped amiglida as a responce. Having high levels of oxytocin in infancy creates emotional empathy. Ie love does this.. it's very interesting how feeling of empathy or lack therove influence society...
Super interesting. I grew up in a pretty dangerous environment at times but at other times it was very loving and warm. Kind of feel I have the two extremes of strong empathy and psychopathic traits as well. But I’m mainly confused at present, none of it quite makes sense.
Gingrich Yagoda
Yeah I feel the exact same way about myself and my environment growing up @@Rakibrown111
an "off by default" empathy response is something an emotionally unresponsive parent can force a child to resort to because for a child a parent being unsupported signals extreme vulnerability .. they have to respond to it so they stop expecting care , shut off the hope of their true emotional responses having any effect on other people and simply watch and copy the parent .. learn the signs of what they are about to do and adapt to their behaviourr. without genuine emotionally responsive reliable adults or peers supporting them a child will likely develop narcissistic personality disorder
I’m thinking this is what happened to me. I don’t believe I am a psychopath. I’ve suffered way too much anxiety to think so. But my empathy is so low it turns others off. My father despised emotional output and always made me feel guilty for expressing myself.
The anxiety would indicate Secondary Psychopathy/Anti Social Personality Disorder. Old terminology, Sociopath. Its about being being created a secondary psychopath by the nurturing style, but not born that way as the Primary Psychopath. There does exist upto a 70% genetic factor.
Just wanted to note that increased reward sensitivity relative to punishment sensitivity is seen in many conditions, not just psychopathy or in the context of fearlessness. So if you related to the budding psychopath in the cookie vignette (who experienced the potential loss of the potential cookie more acutely than fear of being caught) it's probably fine.
one starts to realize really early that while psychology is a science that can and does help they are way to general in their conditions for having a certain mental disorder. because they lack the willingness to grasp the idea that peoples personalitys can differ so much also are constantly subject to change if you really focus on people you start seeing more exceptions of the rule than those it would apply to which they then claim is prove for said rule because they only see people through objective logic but people are not governed by logic and most definitely not objective logic but by ego, morals and beliefs and also a bit of logic but the subjective kind that comes natural in the theta state or the state a child is in "the hypnosis phase of deverlopment" and maybe a second kind of logic that didn't come naturally but after consciousnes is gained so about 7 yrs after birth after theta. if one really thinks about the whole idea of psychology at some point one can reach the conclusion that it was stolen practice from empaths because the ide of them as healers of mind is older than psychology itself being only an overgeneralised reflection of empaths instinctive knowledge of the practise without most of them that practice cold psychology being able to also feel when they are being made a fool by others or what they have to say to another in their personal specific way these can only an empath find out by being able to gain a degree of knowledge of another being within minutes of talking to them which like I said psychology as a science lacks the knowledge of how to learn those traits which is still possible as many psychologists have learned from their experience in the field or simply being born like that in the first place.
Another great video. Concept of "off by default" empathy is mind expanding for me, breaking the binary present or not-present paradigm I've been operating under for years. Really clarifies a lot of behaviors I've witnessed and been baffled by. Thank you!
As someone with aspd I appreciate this video. Gave me more insight on my disorder
Have tou had a diagnosis from a psychiatrist?
Sociopathy and psychopathy arent the same at all!
But they have similar results
Hey Its Not a Disorder Its You being a Stronger individual than Them Which they cannot tolerate
@@TheExistenceClass0 No, your brain is broken & not allowing you full access to information.
Matter of perspective
Great video. Presented very intuitively.
Psychopaths refuse to change, no matter what the treatment. They have built up a deeply entrenched psychological dependency on putting up their walls due to the obvious insecurities. In the end, there (certainly) is treatment; but the question arises: does said psychopath truly desire that treatment?
To answer your question, I think psychopaths try to get away with as much as they can in life before getting “detected” by others. Unless they get caught in the act, they will never see a reason to change. They will only adapt to their circumstances. Treatment doesn’t matter, because they will always choose the thrill.
And insecurities? No. Maybe you’re referring to narcissists. They have insecurities. Real psychopaths have little to none
Psychopaths have been described as the ultimate optimists, that how they see nothing wrong with terrible crime or going to jail. It’s something they will describe as positive in one way or another. If you are feeling epic and you see those who feel weak, vulnerable and emotional telling you to become more like them, where is the attraction? It’s incredibly hard to decide to step down from being an alpha predator just because others think you have a problem. The only way would be because your arrogant ego decides that it wants to master everything and ironically that means to master those very emotions and states of being others are enthralled within. Actually there are probably other ways too but I would definitely betting on using existing traits to power the journey towards learning other to the psychopath unnatural traits.
This is an amazing approach to this topic.
If there's a way to work with a psychopath's nature, I think it would be a good idea specifically because of how challenging it is. This is why I study psychopaths, narcissists, dark empaths, and other types after having had close contact with a lot of them over the years. When you get to the point in life that I have, your response to things start to become something like "fair game" or "I can work with that" or "eh, whatever you had to do" or "third time this week, huh?"
When you're been around Dark Triad types for as long and as much as I have and your view of the world takes on a hue like the sociopolitical climate of Thief: The Dark Project, your chances of survival go up amidst hardcore company. You don't fear being exploited or having sensitive things about yourself revealed or used against you anymore because you are no longer a sensitive person after a certain point, and if really pressed hardcore, you cease to fear for your own hide. There is simply not much more than can be done to deter you at that point. I am one such person.
When you cease to fear for your own hide, and you've survived punishment after punishment after punishment, being expected to change yourself for other people, when there is already a huge amount of spite and distrust you have towards your punishers, it makes you cynical, and when everyone and their sister is determined to take you out, do you really need a sense of remorse or regret, knowing how fickle and shallow people are if you do get on their good graces? You just learn to adapt and then carry on, and I have to wonder if that isn't how some psychopaths are made.
What job or environmental experiences do you have for you to have dealt with these people so closely and for so long?
I was thinking the exact same thing. Great comment btw.
As if corporate crime doesn't exist...

1:08 "Psychopathy is thankfully RARE affecting less than 1% of the population".

😲Obviously whoever produced this video has never had a psychopathic boss, competitor, colleague or father!
Congrats for the video!🤢
Why should they be in prison? We don't throw people in prison for having mental illnesses
Yeah what the guy above me said
@@Dryhten1801 Rather odd to call it a mental illness. The heightened capability for bad does not imply the motive, the stigmatic use of negative language surrounding those with ASPD is irritating in my opinion. But, what you said is correct, as a society we've decided to treat people based on their behaviour rather than thought.
Respectfully, the prevalence of ASPD in surgery and law will have benefited many people.
People come up with phrases and terminologies based on comfort and convenience. And when the shoe is on the other foot and discomfort sets in , then global labeling begins psychopaths, sociopaths only to mirror image narcissistic tendencies by opposing parties. When lies and deceit are deflected back to the aggressor, all sorts of colorful labels emerge
Great video.
We see Psychopaths as just cruel versions of ourselves, while yes of course they're human, when we're cruel it's much different, we feel it, we recognize it, a Psychopath was seemingly born blind, deaf and numb to the pain they can inflict, like trying to teach a cat it's bad to eat a mouse, it simply isn't programmed to get it.
Yeah, and? What will you do about it?
At all. They lack the ability to
With all the interviews I've seen of these types of people over the years, the one thing they all had in common was that they simply didn't care, so I don't see how a rewards-based treatment approach would work in any meaningful way.

I dated a psychopath, fell in love with them, I thought they loved me too. Until one day after we were together for a long while, they didn't want me anymore.
I hadn't acted any different, nothing about me had changed, but they had.
It happened like a switch. One day they were happy, smiling, calling me "my beloved". The next day I was given the silent treatment for weeks, and told I was "stupid".
Then I started to find out lies.
They lied about their job, they lied about their middle name, they lied about their dog. They didn't have a dog. There was no dog that passed away 2 years prior, the psychopath had made it up.
The picture they sent me once a week, and I responded "aww" to was of a random dog they found on the internet/Facebook. It wasn't even their dog. it was somebody else's.
There was never a dog to begin with.
Finally they dumped me for someone else. That partner thinks they are amazing and works in a corporate job doing important business work.
My ex doesn't have a job though, it is just another lie.
That’s pretty dreadful.
I think it's more complex. These people are probably not actually evil but have something to hide and deep insecurities. Behind that there lies fear...
You are describing a narcissist or bpd.
Yes, a narcissist would feel some fear, shame, and regret, etc, deep down.
But a psychopath does not feel fear, they are fearless.
This is terrible. Seriously. Unfortunately I can absolutely relate
That’s awful but the dog thing though 😂 I mean that’s crazy ha ha!! It does sound more like a narcissist though from what I understand, psychopaths are a bit more permanent in their decisions and might not feel there is much point in playing charade. Not that it’s any better, narcissists are annoying as hell and really don’t care about you as an individual. I think psychopaths can at least in good cases decide to have a moral code or loyalty and extreme honesty. But I’m no expert.

It would definitely mean they have psychopathic traits. Nearly half of all people do. If it was out of jealousy or insecurity than it’s probably narcissism
A more fitting diagnosis would likely be “asshole”, given here without the full context of the situation, it is possible that with further and more detailed information that diagnosis “dickhead” could also be applied. Although unconventional, there are some that would argue for none of the above and instead attribute the label of “tosser”, yet this diagnostic pronouncement is in great dispute within academic circles.

That’s probably due to the stigma surrounding ASPD. People with ASPD are referred to as Psychopaths and Sociopaths. While the two can sometimes show similarities, they aren’t the same. ASPD is defined as a limited capacity for empathy, a superficial charm, and difficulty conforming to society as a whole. The difference between a Psychopath and a Sociopath is a Psychopath was born that way, and they are much better at hiding it. Sociopaths are products of their environment, and are more violent than Psychopaths in general. When people hear ASPD, they immediately assume that because you have this condition, you’re either a Psychopath or a Sociopath, and media often portrays the two in a very negative manner.
We have to identify and rescue children from abusive homes so that they do not turn into psychopaths.
Psychopaths are born, not made. Sociopaths are made

i am a psychopath. That is correct that we can turn on and off our empathy. We have a way that we are able to change the way that you sound to us or how we want to sound to ourselves is more like it. We are self-centered, and have a sense of entitlement. We have a grandiose sense of self-worth.
the issue is not the trait but the IQ, how a person is raised and personality.
Being industrious and taught about to just be core part of a functional society is good enough. It's common sense logic and you need to have a society where acting using common sense is rewarded, but tough on any type of criminal activity no matter how little it is. You just need to have a society that only lets functional people survive. Just look at Singapore model.
"a society that lets only functional people survive" Some psychiatric disorders impair function... a society built upon this idea in an extreme sense wouldn't be a society truly loving toward everybody.
@@essennagerry functioning does not mean great. That is like the bare necessary. Once you tilt towards "loving"... you get archetypes like the devouring mother or a loving mamma bear ready to kill for the safety of the cubs. Society needs a progression to being integrated to society as mental weakness is normal if you dont call out to people to more than themselves. You get a degenerate society even if your premise is love.
So it's a cycle we had a good life after the world war and now things are in decline and eventually bring tough times that will eventually try to toughen up again by imposing more conservative values. It's either that or slowly bleed and not survive what's ahead. Everyone in the world is competing.
@@earlnoli So just let homeless and disabled people starve, even the ones disabled at birth, even though there's enough food to feed everyone in the world since at least the 50s if not longer?
@@steamnamebbderinvade__ it would be easy to say enough food to feed everyone but if you look at it as a whole, food needs to be transported and made sure to be safe. Threat of litigation makes companies afraid to give ready to expire food or food outside quality control.
Homeless have shelters but the root cause of homelessness are usually deeper mental issues like drugs, gambling, bad behavior, low tolerance for work, etc. Shelters are problematic because many of them are problematic and steal of each other.
Family members and friends usually help out. To be a person no one in your circle of friends or family wants to help makes you problematic and you need to do some soul searching. I would suggest for homeless people to reach out to community organizations instead and offer and receive help instead. I see many able bodied and can do a lot of good and be help in return.
@@earlnoliI support your comment personally, because you seem pragmatic. One of my biggest gripes with people the more left leaning they are, they’re not pragmatists, and they’re often pompous. They accuse without lending a hand to help, and they sling mud whilst being covered in slime.
I knew from a very young age that I am different. I have witnessed some things that others tell me were horrific. I, however, was unaffected. Only smells effect me emotionally, without my consent
I dont get it. So when someones dog dies or something you should also feel sadness just cause they told you? I believe I have empathy but when someone tells me I have cancer or whatever I dont feel sadness or anything I think damn that sucks for you. But it wouldnt alter my mood.
I was wondering if psychopaths can feel another persons happiness since it was mentioned that psychopaths are reward based. For instance if a psychopath didn't want a food item would they feel a drive to give the food to someone else because it would make that other person happy?
"I was wondering if psychopaths can feel another persons happiness since it was mentioned that psychopaths are reward based."
We observe it and understand it. But it's an empty feeling, like when you kill a mosquito, for example.
the absence of empathy/sympathy creates selfishness and therefore there is no response when we observe the joy of others
Not at all. They probably would offer it to someone else as this is a learned societal norm
We'd probably give the food to someone else but not because it makes the other person happy but because it's something you've learned from the society around you. At least in my case giving the food to someone else is a lot more likely to come from a thought of "at least the food won't go to waste" rather than "that other person is hungry so they can get the food"
@@1cedcoffeeI am not a psychopath and still think that it's both "atleast the food won't go to waste" and "the other person is hungry so they can get the food".. I feel the both at the same time
What’s important to understand with psychopaths is we usually only ever make others happy when we have something to gain from it. Not because we derive a particular joyfulness from it.
I once gave a homeless woman half of my sandwich for no other reason than I was done with it and it was more convenient to give it to them than walk around looking for a trash can. The fact that they enjoyed it is nice, but that was never my primary goal or motivation.
This can be interpreted as cold or unfeeling, but I never set out or seek to do harm. I just don’t process things like joy and empathy the same.
Personally, it is much more practical and efficient to not have other people's pain affect me (assuming I am not the one inflicting said pain, which I am not).
Call that selfish or whatever, it is genuinely just practical in life.
My mom loves watching those nature shows of animals killing other animals. She just stares right at the television when this horrible scene is on ... I can't watch it and I also don't tell her because it makes her too happy to know that it makes me uncomfortable.
Imagine growing up with a psychopathic mother. Maybe some of you know...?
I consider myself empathetic and have no traits of ASPD, and I also don't react to those animal killing scenes. Because I know it's just nature, it is expected, that's how predators get their food, they need to eat, everyone will die one day, and that's just what happens in the wild. I do have Autism though, so that could be a part of it...
The most important voter matter to women is how to kill their unborn children. So called abortion has a very official name for a very brutal act.
Your just a pussy nigga tryna call his mum a whole ass physcopath because she watches nature documentaries
She is not a psychpath, rather, she is sadistic. She takes pleasure and comfort from feeling of others pain. Because she feels others pain. She is sadistic empath. Psychpath would care about their own feelings more than some animals battles.
Still, even many non-safistic people can watch crusl films out of need to challenge themselves. Horror movies are enjoyable for many quite healthy people.
I don't get you. Animals killing other animals is normal, natural. That's the way God planned it to go.
2:30 so I felt nothing when looking at the nail image because it kinda just looks like a bad stock photo. But I should still be in the clear if I seeing others in crisis does make me feel sad (like sinking pit feeling and maybe tears if it's serious) and want to help, right?
Except that ceos are not benefiting any society but thier own
@Booty eatin' Benadryl bandit Yeah!
By moving factories to communist countries?
They bless us with all those taxes they pay.
lol
Schools taught u that? Request a refund.
if you understand how business works you will have more respect at CEOs.
Well there do seem to be a high number of ceos that happen to at least be sociopaths, if not psychopaths.
You know…killer instinct and all that…
So obedience = being good?
That’s called authoritarianism…Using punishment to correct behavior. 🤦🏼♀️ That’s one way to encourage compliance.
@Joltacks:
You practically have to instill terror. That’s not easy to do within a socio- or psychopath.
@@TheTrueOnyxRose yep if you also have a high level narcisism like me, you're physically incapable of accepting someone else as a "greater force". In other words, no matter what, subconsciously and instinctually you will look down on them, and therefore, typical disciplinary mechanisms would simply be provocative.
Obedience is base for learning
Without obedience, young animals die after birth, because they don't follow their mother and don't obey and copy her efficient actions
@@eyennordic348:
But that’s for young kids, and that grows out of eventual bonding and trust…or it should. You trust someone, it follows that you respond by doing what is requested (unless you’re too young to understand what the adult is even saying, let alone obey). It’s automatic, not artificially instilled by fear.
What you’re presenting though is practically Christian thinking. If you want this (heaven, for example) and you don’t want that (hell), you obey. And obedience = good. Not being considerate, not helping others, not generosity…obedience. And disobedience = being a bad kid. Nevermind if who you are obedient to is actually an ethical person or not, and if they’re respetable and trustworthy enough to be obeyed.
Obedience should virtually never be the sole mark of being good, using punishment as influence. That doesn’t even build character. It just makes a person subservient. It makes “yes men”. And they say yes out of fear, too terrified to think for themselves.
@@TheTrueOnyxRose No. The more animal evolves, the longer it's childhood period of developing complex begavior. Dogs are wolves who were selected to learn better by being obedient and tame, less nervous and aggressive in unusual and complex surroundings.
Wolf would be mad in big city, while dog can control itself in public places, building trust and obedience toward owner.
In humans, it even more important to first learn, listen, cipe, and then understand all the reasons. Or at least be willing to take from older people who have their life already experienced in nuanced way.
Without obedience as great value, societies does not evolve either.
You need high obedience and high creativity together to keep all good old things and make even better new things.
The more complex we became, the more longer "obedient kmprinting" we need to fulfil our important roles in society without destroying thing by over-analising, deconstruting and devaluing them.
Generative society, with good chance to survive in 1000 years from now, which produces cutural values of its own, is high obedience society first. Learning first, then mastering.
Disobedient people are disconnected ones, they are too egocentric to learn well from others.
Or they just perverse the purpose always, doing their way.
Hard to tell what they want, they do what they do because they want to be punished or stopped but no one stands up to stop them so they keep doing it.
My sister was traumatized when a physician said it's likely that her son had autism & she would need to take steps. I told her that people are as different as the keys of a piano, every key is different but a composition requires them all & the boy is fine. He is a happily married father of three with a beard his wife defends & a supervisor in a nuclear power plant that hunts deer & ducks with his children. A prognosis is often a death sentence. Sometimes it's better to not know. It takes a community to raise a child, not an umbrella mom.
I bet you several months of solitary confinement and old John Tesh music could almost cure their sick asses!
✅ good video
I became friends with this trans person. It was interesting as I never met someone like this. We became great friends. I started to pick up that they always needed a favor. I was always being talked into something. I was always promised to be paid back but it would never come. I would get angry and bring it up. They had no remorse. They would say my comments were the same as their mom. Being told they were a selfish person. I later met someone who went to high school with them and they said they thought this person was a psychopath. I began to research psychopaths and everything is spot on! The stare, no remorse, everything!! This was a great video!
My sister is a psychopath. She was abusing me whole my childhood and even in my twenties. Now in my 30s she abuses me verbally only but in the way that you wish to die. She would run over death people and she behaves like that mostly towards me. She has a boyfriend as well that is abuser and he beated me up once when she told him to. I did not hhave any protection. My dad died ling time ago and she even abused him especially when he got diabetes and got old. I had to move out or i would go crazy. She made always fun of my physical appearence and all my achievements and telling me I am stupid and ugly, calling me all nasty words. So much hate from her towards me. She even got the kid wit that abuser and now mybmum raising thst kid while my sis sleep or stays at job longer just not be more around the kid so she wouldn't be tired. While I was living with them my sister would fo anything to make me crazy and twist my words or anything I do. My parents never never criticise her for thst or told her that is wrong and then she became worse. When my father died she told me that he didnt love me, that he csred only for my sister. That is so so sad. And not to talk how many my relationships she destroyed and made fun of that. I wouldn't wish that to the worst enemy. I dont speak to her nor i think i ever will again. Too many times I was forgiving her over and over and she would be just worse and worse. And when she is wrong she would made up some theory in her head that i am sinner and that got punishes me lol. All that just to think it is alwayd my fault. She even tried to take my right to inherite the part of the house. Whats worst my mother supports her. But one day she will stay alone in that house here no one wants to see hwr .
Omg, I didn’t feel anything when the nail through the finger appeared 😮
PSYCHO!!!!!
There's also a high level of psychopathy in business and politics because these people will step on people to get where they want to be. 12% of corporate leaders are psychopaths. It’s time to take this problem seriously. Fortune magazine 2021
"While phycopathy is rare, only effecting 1% of the population"
Well a quick Google calculation says that's about 70,000,000 people..... *still seems like alot* 😶
That number is wrong thats the amount of Narcisist there are Psychopaths are different that’s somebody that feels no emotionthe term is called cold empathy its a means to a reward emotion basicly its estimated 4.5 % of people are Narcissist or have some type of disorders that dont effect them in life buttttttt …… as far as real pscopaths only about 0.1 to 0.025 its only 1.5 to 1.7% of prisoners are locked up for murder and are not serial killers just murders there has been 3204 serial Killers caught or killed total of those are capabale to being serial killers verrrry few acually are the real thing . there is many catagorys in this your talking about someone thats Is sadomasochist in to bdsm and gonzo videos grew up abused hates his mom dad sisters brothers in everyone he meets is truned agianst him dosnt trust him they only have 1 person there close to at a time in that person is useally high on the empathy sector cause the Psychopath will steal there happyness for hate energy and dosnt Rely on others for sexual pleasure often its someone that is self sufficient in nearly every way except the needing to eat of of peoples stress Agony and losss of sense of worth . They dont just do this to them try to bring them in the feeling of inches of death over in over but have too to survivie they need it feel humor about these feelings hate when good people are happy emotion is a weaknes and look up too people like ted bundy ed kemper charles manson even though he wasnt a killer more Like Muhammad Ali wasn’t the toughest boxer of all time but was a great for his words Charles Manson is that it came for us a bad mofo basically so is Dennis Rader Gary Ridgway they’re bad mofos they’re like heavy weights but they didn’t use her words didn’t know hogs for Gary Ridgway didn’t know how to explain everything it was one of you that had a lower IQ for killer higher than average for his point of view on like cause manson explains it best im a whore im a bum im a friend of nature im the dirt im the sky a hero a villin im whatever you want me to be ill behim if that good me walking down the road in his boots while he laus theres with his head split open I Am My Own God there is no law there is and is not , in did and did not there is a hate me or live me but it dont matter either way i dont indentify with humans i identify with animals more then humans .humans have emotion feeling empathy is a weakness always has been .
Not always, no, not even for an empath, looking at that picture is not always triggering that feeling, once you saw it countless times. Now in real scenario, for an empath, it will cause a sense of pain, but the more an empath is exposed to it, that distress diminish.
And are other misconceptions you have...
I get that there is sort of enough brain scan data, but does not quite go that way for a psychopath.
Now when I see a psychopath cry, I don't react like a naive, guliable that I used to be, knowing they most often do it to get what they want. And yes, are more than 1% of them, sadistic ones are to be ones to watch out the most.
You're forgetting the machiavelians in this, that will bias your medical data and make you believe bs...
4:45 Why anxiety from opportunity loss and not anxiety/fear of punishment though? Is that just how it is?
It's not necessarily anxiety from losing an opportunity, but more so the feeling of missing out on something beneficial - since with psychopathy you're really just out for yourself, you'll feel bad for not taking the opportunity of feelings of success / pleasure / whatever the feeling is
I think he’s making a video on Sociopaths. Psychopaths think and use their heads to plan far more than a regular and actually think of the consequences
The image with the nail through the thumb, in my psychopathy, I would lie and tell you how horrible it looks, but I am not experiencing any forms of anxiety. I will know what to do to make you calm down until its remedied some way. I might find something gross, but I don't find it fearful. If it happened to me, then all I would say is that sucks.
One thing I want to share my view .there are many types of personality disorders exist in our surroundings family and friends..it's not about who are they ..it's very much important who you are and how you associated with them and why you associated with them ..how you deal them ,I mean ur role and responsibility with particular character.. how much u have to involve and how u can manage.. are u going to suffer at which rate . probability of ur relationship structure that which you require for you existence or supports ur existence vs ur tolerance level vs overall health vs future estimation with or without involving with such character .and mainly their interference level in ur life. Many things plays role .. so calculate efforts,time , health,output .when it necessary to take a step go head and never turn back
you can punish in only one way bore em
Having had a psychopathic parent I can say that they are both abusive and violent.
I cant tell if I am, I lose my temper like one but then I feel terrible guilt for it, is it because my ego and reputation is on the line or is it because I genuinly care how the other person felt over it.
If you care or are even remotely worried about being "one of us". . . You most definitely are not.
Indifference.
Not saying you don't have some "issue" you can pay a doctor $300/hour to listen to. But psychopathy isn't it. There. Saved you some money.
If you feel bad because you lost temper and did silly, than its about ego. If you feel sad about person's feelings afterwards, than its empathy. Probably you feel both, in complex feeling of being bad to other human being. Your life resulted in hurting other life and appear a villain that life.
Interesting article, thank you. The classic image of the hand injury perfectly illustrates the Black Magic of visual empathy & the triggering of subjective emotions that manifest in that individual from the presentation of an image. Our human brain is still Caveman, with centuries old survival instincts.
The psychopathy origins is interesting. The child considering taking a cookie may easily have cognitive memories of receiving scolding or even being comforted after being subjected to antagonism. The evolving of associated pain sensations and sequential endorphin engagement may manifest in young age as a craving of provoking the precipitating behaviour that they associate with causing the receipt of care from a care giver, however that provision of care may seem to them as of a more adult age, such as Care providers or institutionalisation. Where deeply rooted emotional pain may not have been recognised as a resolution requirement, the subjective individual's behaviour may reflect a learnt behaviour that pushes them to behave in ways that they believe would cause someone else's reaction, such as adaptations of Naughty Child Behaviour. This could even be a precipitation of self defeatist or self prophecy attitude manifesting the belief that they are bad & thus causing them to engage with societal behaviours likely to incur that pre'requisite reaction from others.
With the knowledge that early life emotional pain, stored as a memory yet re-experienced each time a sensory trigger reminds them, causes the individual the reactive memory of uncertainty, this uncertainty is equivalent to momentary age regressive reaction. The lack of knowledge of how to proceed, of how they should cope & progress. Even momentary, the brain is creating neural pathways. Shortcuts, that deeply entrench themselves as well trodden paths between sensory suggestive reminders & neural reactions. Society may be providing myriad of such reminders. Socially of their environment, via television & similar entertainment visuals, etc. The man who fires a gun at a bus of school children & families may have had his emotions triggered with painful memories of feeling abandoned as a child, even where non-absentee parents were disengaged via substance abuse or similar social factors. Seeing 'happy families' may remind him of his own pain and his learnt behaviour that admonishment brings relief via endorphins and singular direct familial engagement where a Care giver or similar has to engage with him on the subject of his disfunctionality. Is trying to kill a bus full of school children really the only way to attract attention? As part of the experience of being a child of substance abusing distant parenting, that child learnt that other adults' involvement in bringing his behaviour to the Parents' attention was the route to engagement between him & them. Yet similarly, 'that' child, as the child they originally were, or, importantly, that child he originally was yet via age regressive moments or episodes, has literally no comprehension of the ramifications, the consequential seriousness of aiming at a bus of school children. A child understands a gun as the equivalent of a toy. Gun fingers pointed as part of a game, or maybe viewed on a screen, where people acting seem real yet even the televised consequences are not truly understood to 'that' child. He sees that behaviour as a behavioural pathway to someone else making a Care giver give him attention, maybe emotional pain relief from physical admonishment. Endorphin based self soothing, from the step by step method of learnt naughty child behaviour, is the conclusive resolution from the subconscious or by then, deeply unconscious memory of how he had to behave to make the emotional pain stop.
Consequentially, those momentary glitches back to childhood trauma memories would manifest the regular occurrences of deviation from adult recognisence, where adults normally, ordinarily, have capacity to empathise, an adult with deep unconscious or subconscious pain memories that are triggered , also has frequent neural re-engagement of the evolving learnt knowledge they had at the original age. That child age is not societally expected to cognitively understand adult reality associated of wrongful behaviours.
Kind respects, Theresa 🙋♀️☯️
Sounds like you're mostly going ALK Ng about the process of the subconscious mind... When we bring old behaviors into awareness and act rather than react is what causes new neural connections to be made. This is what they mean when they say the brain has plasticity .. the subconscious mind exists in the body. The body holds our long term memory of everything that ever happened to us.
Also you are explaining cptsd
Wow that sounded like one of the best most responses I've seen on UA-cam in a long time
I have some ASPD and high functioning autism traits, i bet part of it is caused by my emotionless mom (she might have autism or aspd too). I couldn't get enough love and affection from her, so subconsciously I started to do bad stuff to get ANY reaction no matter bad or good. And she reacted. And it was like a relief for me, like she finally cared. Honestly i dunno whether her reaction was sincere or not, but seems like I NEEDED that reaction no matter what
I'm not a native English speaker, hope i understood your comment right
I might buy it if the image wasn't so obviously fake. You may as well have shown me a Tom & Jerry cartoon.
Can hypnotherapy be use to "reset" psyco@mental disorder mind
Nobody is a psychopath from what I see. Not even me.
LOL Business and Finance at the end 🤣 Reminds me of the book "Something for Nothing" about arbitrage in financial markets, especially the ethics considerations of the book.
The clip shown where the 'mom' was reacting to the child taking a cookie was so extreme it could have created an eating disorder, lol.😮
I have never tried to punish a psychopath. However I have told the truth about my personal experiences that may or may not have been with a psychopath. If, for some reason, this may bother a person that has psychopathy then it's really not my problem and more of a personal problem for that individual. They may need to seek some type of counseling or therapy to help them cope with their issues.
“While many people believe that psychopathy is more prevalent among CEOs and Wall Street bankers, this is a myth not supported by any research. While on the surface it may seem that many of the symptoms and traits of psychopathy might lend themselves to positions of greater power, the two are not synonymous.”
“One of the problems is that psychopaths tend to be pretty quickly "outed" for their antisocial behaviors, because the charm is purely superficial and easily detected over time with greater exposure to the psychopath.”
- Psych Central
Don't forget that amongst world-class CEOs psychopatic traits are as strong if not stronger than among prisoners. World is run by psychopats, that is the worst thing about them.
Other criminals and people in general who act k. Impulses and even children, don't change because of punishments. This is not new.
I did not react to the picture at 2:07. But I also don’t have a criminal record and a desire to hurt others. I’ve always been weird, but not to the extent that I have a callous view toward life. I don’t know
Not all psychopaths have the desire to hurt others at all. This is a big misconception. They all have the capability to though.......
Is there anything to do if psychopathic behaviors are identified in childhood?
Idk but Clyde Shelton from the movie Law Abiding Citizen did
