- Do you see signs of a dark empath? They could be the most dangerous person in the room. Dark empaths are notoriously difficult to spot and discover. They can seem like a psychopath if you know them well, but it’s most likely they seem like a normal person in almost every setting and situation.

This is good reason not to over share with people you don't know. Keep your secrets private and make sure you know who you're dealing with. Fast friends aren't usually "friends".
i didn't understand what you meant until i remembered a person was looking to become my friend way too eager and quick (i had an object of value) and i let them borrow it yeah I'm stupid and trust too quick 😅 never got the thing back
or just dont have any "dark" secrets ;)
That's why i NEVER trust someone just because they're nice to me. Your trust should be earned, not given away for free
yes and the danger of it is that they will define you that way, being nice is not always good karma.
This is so true. Fast friends are soon gone. Be aware and get to build friendships slowly.
I'm a dark empath because of trauma so I believe everyone is susceptible to this. From childhood abuse to relationship trauma has lead me to try to protect myself. But work on yourself through repetition. It can help to understand your attachment style and see a professional as well. Don't turn yourself into a villain, don't see yourself as one, make the change you want to. Let your past teach you; don't reflect the past.
True...well spoken!

Nice Comment

There is a difference between empathy and sympathy.Crying or rejoicing with others is sympathy. Empathy is understanding the experiences of others, whether or not you share their feelings.
It requires higher cognition to be able to empathize
@@scottanno8861 Yes! Thank you. My parents think that because they feel sad for people they are empathetic, but they have no ability to see things from the others perspective, but instead through the lens of their own morals and ideals, leading to a 'holier than thou' type of pity. Just because you are sad that another is sad, does not mean that you are sad for the same reason they are, or understand why they are sad. Empathy is to put your own beliefs on hold and see through the lens of another, and that takes far more work mentally. I'm not sure if all people are even capable of it if they tried, but it still doesn't stop them from jabbering on about being 'empaths'.
Sympaths gotta become a thing
Highly empathetic working in nursing. Yet I've always always been able to shut a door and never look back. I don't feel responsible for others happiness.
I always knew you were phoney.. liar
I totally feel that. After hurting me enough times, I'm done, and when I'm done, I'm done!
This sounds like healthy boundaries to me.
Damn nah I do. I work n hospice and definitely feel responsible for others happiness 😬
Just give them drugs they'll be fine @Hay_Bay
I feel like they are describing Empaths who have been hurt, and in turn are protective of themselves. Yes…some people are full assholes, but being able to read and feel people help in deciding who you want/don’t want in your life.
Most people offer nothing so they're friendship means nothing especially stingy hoez in relationships
You not kidding
Me lol
The difference is that they don't feel the range of emotions that empaths have. They just are better at reading people than psychopaths and sociopaths, but not through genuine empathy but thru cognitive, stone-cold logical empathy.
@Jessica Tsao that's always been a problem for me because when after I get mad at the person for the wrong they did to me, the very next day when I'm still healing and trying to let it go that person ask me "are you ok" I just tell them yes. The funny part is that they then say "it's obvious you're not ". Then my question to them is how would you know that, you can't read my mind, and you can't deter whether I'm ok or not ".
I believe you can be both a empath and dark empath depending on the situation and people you are dealing with.
No.
Absolutely Right. You reflect their light!
no you can't because dark empath doesn't exist. it's a new imagined term. In the DSM manual dark empath doesn't exist. When you start using empathy for making someone miserable that's not empathy any more that means you don't have empathy. Empathy means you're sorry when something bad happens to someone.
@nickb8618, absolutely true. As empathy is learned behavior, like language.
@@TheTricksterFigure Are you saying that a victim who was brutally tortured or raped must feel empathy towards assailant?
you're funny hypocrite
Empath and empathy have two different meanings. I understand a dark empath to be a warrior for good especially against narcissist.
Yup!
Not at all just deceiving u that's it
It seems to me that there's a danger to misdiagnose oneself. We all, as humans, have good and evil in ourselves and we can choose either one. Some do deliberately choose the dark side, but it's not a given. People of high intelligence are gifted and able to discern easily the emotions and motives of others, but they have a higher responsibility for their actions. It's all about who we choose to be. We're capable of good or evil...or both.
People love to diagnose themselves on these kind of videos, the comment section is always full of them saying they’re whatever coz they act similar to one tiny thing or think they’re a genius coz the quiz said they are if they can spot the tomato in a basket of green apples within 30 seconds
I wonder how scientific this is. I don't want to pollute my mind 😅
So just a narcissist. OK 👍 👌 got it
Amen
It's sad it all gets so confusing when they say don't mistake someone's kindness as being genuine, which starts to make you doubt any good in the world. This sucks.
because they super villafied this video to make it seem like we are out to do evil and dont care about anyone at all ever except ourselves ... sounds like they are projecting a bit ... they were probably hurt by someone themselves in the past who had the disorder .. personally i love people very deeply i dont want to see people hurt ... but when i see people doing bad things to others it triggers my cpstd and i shut off emotionally and detach and i switch into a mode where it becomes a dark mirror ... i reflect those things back amplified times a million to crush that person with the behavior so that they will reflect on it and be triggerd into working on it so they dont do it to other people ... its like a fuck about and findout issue ...
@@TheVardoHouse Exactly. Dark Empaths are mirrors. We see your flaws and we react to it bounce it back to you even stronger because we are not afraid to rise up. We are dark empaths and we know what dark is. We've been there. We can be bad and good. Depending on what you're attitude is to us. We throw it back to you. So don't try us. We've already killed you multiple times in our head.
@@TheVardoHouse I agree, man.
@@TheVardoHouse i think the fuck around and find out mentality should be more normalized imo. People get away with so much bullshit nowadays and never get held accountable. Too many people get taken advantage of because of the lack of accountability society promotes.
There is no good in this world besides children who have not learned to hate yet
We all share traits of dark empaths, just because you share traits... For instance I share 4 traits.
1. I'm introverted, however social settings I become confident and comfortable but I'm really critical...
2. I will show empathy but I may not care deep down, I won't use anything against you or anything.
3. Only in some settings, I use it in competitive settings sure but that's competition...
4. Affection starving I have done because I don't feel people have earned it other times I forget... I studied psychology and often wonder if I am psychopath or sociopath but I don't think I'm either... We are human, different in our own ways just because you share traits does not mean you are one
THANK YOU!!!!!! It's only human we're going to experience some similarities in both traits. Unfortunately due to the latest trends, everyone wants to be labelled as something, in order to feel more superior than others, even if it's something serious like mental health. It's now trending to be a psychopath, because it's been glamorized in shows and movies. People go to any lengths just to feel superior 😬
It's pitiful....sad really!
Shows the desperation to be noticed and feel important 😂
Agreed.
i would not like to be your friend no matter what. I have had a friend for 20 years!! she was maybe like you.....the worst possible thing is that such people have 0 emotions to suffering of anyone else but like to give out gifts so that you think they are genuinely kind while they are not. Highly insecure and envious too! since they never care deep, they also never get upset! and they portray this as emotional inteligence....but they are allways happy to see someone in trouble! and collect such people around! from young age...but never help them for real just keep them close with those irrelevant gifts. the most terrible personality you can imagine, its the BEST LIAR out there in a universe! it took me 24 years to figure it out! 22 and than extended by 2 more cause of those irrelevant gifts
@@Onlyspeakingthetruth Yeah it's kinda troubling really! 🤣
@@hrabmv Obviously it's tough on you and you had to walk away, it's a good thing.
I love seeing people achieve success and being kind to each other but not everyone thinks the same... Regardless of whether or not I know you, I will treat you with respect and kindness until given a reason to remove those qualities and respond differently... I do feel sometimes I choose to shut off other times it does itself
I don't think I'm a dark empath, but have the ability to be. There's a point where your so aware of the emotions around you and even your own where you can cross realms especially if you've lived long enough and been hurt enough.
I hate it. I do customer service and feel all of their suffering in addition to my own. I wish I could shut it off.
i feel like everybody be against me sometimes and i believe sb is tryna take me out
I actually started feeling nauseous while watching this and my jaw was dropped during almost the whole video. I realized my childhood "friend" had every single one of these traits. I eventually got sick of his crap and after being in a psychology class years later I began to suspect that the "friend" I finally had enough of was a sociopath. He wasn't though. He was a dark empath. Here is a little fun story about the worst friend I ever had. We became friends in the 2nd grade. Everything was good and fun. I loved him like a brother. But I started to notice some toxic things about him. His lack of loyalty. We were best friends. Joined at the hip. And yet any time that I told him about a girl that I liked he would go sabotage it, by snitching to them and making an awkward scene that humiliated me. Eventually I got sick of him doing this and told his crush that he had feelings for her. Not to get revenge even though that is probably what it seemed like, but just to show him how it would make him feel. He actually had the audacity to get angry with me and I somehow ended up being the one who apologized. He made me feel like he was allowed to spread my secrets to anyone who would listen, but if I spread his I was a piece of crap. Thanks to me being his first friend, I was able to get him into a friend group with my other friends. Everything was good for 3 years, aside from me learning to never tell him any secrets. But then he started sowing seeds of doubt in me. He started bringing up this guy I had never heard of and claimed he was "his real best friend." And I even blatantly said, "I thought I was your best friend." And he responded with, "No, you are just one of my friends, he is my best friend." That may have not seemed like a big deal, but when you have someone who you spend almost every moment of your school day with whenever applicable and the only person you hang out with outside of school telling you that someone else is their best friend it is an extreme blow to your self-esteem. It screwed me up for so long. I was desperate to finally find someone who would view me as their favorite. I became very self-destructive because of it. I wanted someone to love me so badly to the point it was unhealthy thanks to him. And then it got even worse. He started "teasing" me with really mean things that he kept writing off as jokes. Any time I would call him out on his really mean and humiliating remarks he would always write them off as jokes. I put up with this abuse for 3 more years after this started. Eventually other "friends" seemed to start turning against me. They started insulting me. And eventually it got to the point where I was always uncomfortable around my so-called friends. I finally had enough whenever I caught him talking crap about me behind my back. As a side note since it doesn't really fit in anywhere all that well in this narrative, he also had this weird thing with his elf-esteem. He acted arrogant in front of others, but whenever it was just, he and I he would put himself down. One of the reasons I started to suspect he was a sociopath aside from the ton of other reasons already mentioned about him being a dark empath which I initially mistook for being a sociopath, was his extreme charisma to the point it was unsettling. I did not notice it whenever I was a child, because I did not know what sociopaths were at the time. But after learning about it in a psychology class I looked back on the moments where he was so abnormally charismatic especially for someone his age and it frightened me. Back then I thought it was charming. After looking back once learning about sociopaths it just sent chills up my spine. Like how could anybody have been as charming as him without their being something wrong with him? I don't fall for charm after learning how sociopaths use it to manipulate people. I find charm repugnant. I only trust people who are awkward like me. It is so creepy knowing how close I was to someone who was a dark empath. I still have nightmares remembering all of the suffering I endured as a child from not having a good father (he eventually turned around, but he took his own sweet time), an abusive teacher, an abusive best friend, and growing up in a Baptist church where I was basically brainwashed into believing that I was going to hell for making a blasphemous joke that would not be forgiven.
I had many so called friends like this growing up. They come on as a friend, but they suck the life out of you and manipulate you. The term "frenemy" is a term we used to identify the friend/enemy. As I got older, it got easier to spot and avoid people like this, but that type of person is still out there. They can be very clever.
I am sorry you went through this. Thank you for sharing it. I had totally forgotten I had a 'best' friend like this. Everything the video and you described. I had nightmares about some of the dangerous situations she put me in till my 20s, but somehow I had recently forgotten about her. This was really helpful thanks.

You didn't miss anything. Wish I didn't waste my time tbh.
I think from what we seen the most important thing is hold anybody accountable for their actions or make them realized they're wrong rather than destroying them
Yep, exactly. All these categorizations do not help. Putting people into boxes of good, evil etc. just makes you judgemental and blind. Much better to see what actions are unhealthy for you and adapt your reactions/environment accordingly. The obsession with figuring out people is the major mistake that gets you hooked.
I'm thinking of calling them out to their face
I had a close friend for about 4 or 5 years who is a dark empath. After about 2 years of our friendship I got a weird gut feeling about her and I saw weird behavior in her. Sadly I tried to ignore it for a long time. I talked my own intuition down and gaslight myself
Is that like where she would learn about you out of genuine interest, but then through empathy learn how to try and "get inside your head" and break you down emotionally? Because I've had that with at least 2 people in recent times. One was a guy, and even though I was the one who was wronged, he had this weird look on his face that was like angry, but also vulnerable in a weird way. No doubt he twisted shit up in his head so he believes his own fantasy and lies.

i am truly sorry you had to go thru this , i just recently learned tht i was a dark empath .. i do enjoy manipulating people , but i will not hurt ..
@arthur Medee It's good that you make a conscious effort to not hurt people, but sometimes the emotional and mental manipulation can hurt just as bad as being assaulted. Think about it. You're getting inside someone's head, learning what their weaknesses and vulnerabilities are, and using it to cut deep where you know it will have a devastating effect on them. That's the sort of thing that causes people to go off the deep end and really fuck some shit up. Just something to be aware of, especially if you know you're dealing with a sensitive person, possibly on the autism spectrum or afflicted with some other disorder.
I could remember several years ago heroin addiction nearly destroyed my life, I suffered from severe depression, illicit pills, and mental disorder until I was recommended to psilocybin mushroom treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly I'm 8 years clean now. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I had the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.

This accurately describes the man I've been seeing. He doesn't fit the mold for a traditional narcissist, so I've been a bit confused as to discover what exactly is going on here. The term dark empath came up recently and now I'm pretty sure I've figured it out. He has behaved text book to this description. Totally live bombed me for 2 months, then pulled away and has been playing games. Just as I have decided to let him go, he comes back saying all the right things. In the beginning I was asking how he knows to say precisely what I wanted to hear.
If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Sounds like he's using a known dating tactic there love.....pushing and pulling you emotionally will keep you attracted to him...wise up and drop him like a bad habit
Get rid of him.
Would he happen to be a Pieces born between Feb. 21st-- March 21st? I ask because I dated a Pieces that had the same character traits and another friend as well😢
Well, i have no idea about the exact details, but let me tell following: it is about people synching. I was on the both sides and blamed both sides, one at the time, and then realised: people need time to understand. Then, their/your usual life is dragging you away and back to the rails. If the time in between these synchronisities is getting shorter, its a good sign. Person is more thinking about you and what has happened, than about something else.
Have to remind that it is a job for both parties. Handshake requires two hands, right? You never know, how painful it would be to recognize how wrong you were ten years ago and the fact that person understood you only made you.. worse.
It is dynamic. Two life beings are trying to sync. Even if successfuly, its not for long - we all die.
Next case, please
@@survivor9898 yes! Feb 23rd.
Same guy? Lol
This was an accurate description of a dark triad. A dark empath is entirely different. The narcissist angers them to the point of their appearing to be like them, in the way that they mirror their personality in order to maintain the advantage of stealth. The dark empath is only focused on isolating the narcissist through projecting the illusion of kinship. Once this objective is achieved, the dark empath will deliver the only thing that the narcissist responds to. Their value of self preservation. The dark empath is not deterred by any of the narcissists attempts to garner sympathy or mercy, knowing too well it is fabricated, and that they will always victimize others. The dark empath has been taken by, and suffered harsh damage from the malignant narcissist. Their motives are not based upon revenge, they are acting through the necessity of severely limiting the narcissists reach on their circle, by driving them out with violent force. The dark empath is able to access the zone of suspending empathy, when it is to the detriment of all others to not do so. The same thing as having to put down a rabid dog, even if it was your own.

Watching this video, I realize that this is probably what my dad is. #3 is a behavior I've noticed from him a lot; that when he does favors for me or someone else, the whole point is to make other people feel like they owe him, instead of helping just because he wants to help. Being raised by someone like that messed me up in ways that are hard to deal with. Even I noticed in the past that I started to act like him, but had to learn how to not be that way. It's been hard.
I can sympathise. I learned to be manipulative in some ways, because it was the only way to get my needs met. Also, I withdrew, became really introverted. Japan, where I fled, has been very good for me, because you don't have to stick up for yourself there. In fact, they expect everyone not to.

A dark narcissist is the worst personality type, or covert narcassist
Nope a dark empath they may be exactly like covert narcissist
Sometimes I wonder if the person that outlined these disorders name them romantically so the public will want to identify with them, thus giving their new disorder a way to gain popularity above the multitude of disorders and allowing those that love to identify themselves a new and edgy way to stand out and feel like they are on the fringes of society but in a safe and clinical way.
LMAO. "Romantically". One of the Soviet Union's KGB Active Measures tactics is to activate anti-narcissist narcissism. The exact triad of psychopathic deviancy (these are different than the word "psychopath" that people spittle like the Looney Tunes cat that chases Tweety Bird) and sadistic and hostility. "Why you serial kill your victims?", asks the cops? "Because they're dark empaths who serial kill", says the serial killer, who swears the labeling justifies their serial kills in between the spittle and spew, where the hostility completely escapes reality checks from reality versus delusions. Note: "verbal defense normal anger" is VERY different than hostility, especially of anti-narcissist narcissism.
I'm afraid "conspiracies" exist. For years, psychologists have trying to get people to see beyond the abuse, where "toxicity" in relationships is actually the attempted labeling of "toxic" of anything at all.
Clever woman
This right here, is that invisible destructive engine driving our modern social culture. I appreciate you for highlighting this.
I was just thinking of this. A whole lot of comments saying “as a dark empath” like what lol anything that’s edgy is the way to go I guess
The presentation of this Pscychology rabbit hole left me feeling a bit sticky and in need of the shower, but this collection of commentors and their remarks are warmly illuminating. The level of awareness of these issues is far greater in people today than it was is the past. I love warmth I feel when illuminated by a ray of hope.
Thanks for the good tips
I can see those who want to drag me down from a mile away. It took alot of time and let downs to become who I am today, but I can't stay mad. They did me a favor to be honest. To the young men out there in todays crazy world, Do not give up. Do not be pushed around. Do not be told who to be. Have courage in your thoughts and stand up for yourself. Most importantly, be kind to others.
thank you for putting a name to my behavior patterns. now for me to decide to fine tune this or forget it if that’s possible
This explains so much!

I am definitely a dark empath but just because my mind works that way doesn't mean I use my powers for evil I'm extremely loyal to my friends I try to boost their egos not manipulate them I'm extremely good at manipulating but I avoid doing it honestly he's making us sound like monsters but I will say if I run into a narcissist I love to analyze them tear them apart and make them feel terrible about themselves
💀this comments section is full of people desperately trying to seem cool but just ending up looking like a weirdo in the process
Agreed
@@neztech. i mean its equally as corny as the many self proclaim psycho analysts that appear everywhere.
none of yall are psychologists simmer down trying to sound smart. Ironic you talk about what's "cool" with a shitpost name like skrublord69.
You literally emit try hard attention seeking energy my guy
What powers do you have?wow!!! I bet you wear black clothes.and own a trench coat.POWERS!!! like a comic character?Darkwolf? The Nightfag?lol.cheers!!
You described yourself EXACTLY the way the video says.
Lol, that's so cool that the voiceover sounds like Casey Casum from the 80s:)
Thank you for sharing this info in ways that helps put others at ease while learning about the darker sides of life. Top notch thinking, in my book ❤️☀️🙏
Very helpful.😁
you are a human, don't think you are flawed when you feel a world so cold. i know too, being put down for being different, feeling rejected and shunned. you are still here and thats what counts and keep striving forward, because to have reached this point you are doing great.
Paying your debt to make you guilty is a feature of psychopaths and manipulators. The empaths, light or dark, will help just to... help.
About revenge etc. dark empaths do it to people who deeply hurt them.
Hii from the video this may be inaccurate even where it occurs
Be balanced, use the attributes of a dark empath to make those in higher positions of power bend to your will in order to progress to a higher position (removing gatekeepers), and use the positive attributes of an empath to help others in need
Great 👍 information 🎉 thanks 😊
This can describe almost anyone at some point. Everyone is manipulative to an extent.
OMG all of this is very familiar 😱😳🥺. I think the worst part is the amount of time it took to become apparent to me that this is a real thing and not only in my head or not me.
Thank you for all your videos, I have learned much and encourage others to subscribe to your channel, everyone should have a little knowledge on this and other types of personality disorders tucked away for just in case. 👍
As if `invisible crimes´ could give an unfair advantage to ego-centric, greedy types?
Nice video! As humans naturally we all want to reach people where they are at. All these traits they are so similar nothing really giving significant evidence to clarify the disorders. I believe in different personalities and we are all different in some ways. But you’ve never stated of a so call “dark empath” having self awareness. Truly as I write some people are just genuine people who want the best for you and themselves. Just because a person can read dark and light doesn’t mean they are the most dangerous. They have awareness to pick and choose what side to fight for good or evil. Nobody is perfect! I think it’s the best personality to have to reach people where they are at in life only for the good not evil!
Take care ✌🏿
Facts
Well said
These videos feel like a divisive tool, I wonder how many healthy relationships ended because of it.
I’m so empathetic towards people and have been for 53 years however lately I’m holding everything at a distance. I choose who I let in and throw out now. It’s nice but scary.
This is crazy. I’ve watched videos like this for years and only related to some things but this video is wild on how much I relate to a lot of it. I wonder if that is my personality type.
Is it bad if we relate to much this? How can we stop our dark empathic behavior??
Villainy😂
the reason a dark empath is so widely sought for is because we are the best doctors and manifestors and no doctor can argue with us because we mastered psychology. LOVE YOUR SELF!
Keep blowing your own horn kid
@@jamesrutter4100 I will Plz Love yourself more.
Bullshit
🤓
Exactly. We mastered both the light and dark aspects of our psyche to best benefit ourselves and those around us.
We are fearless but also conscious of how people perceive us. We seek greatness and perfection even though perfection can never be obtained, but it should still be a goal.
Very nice video, the comments are also interesting. I was wondering how many people are enough intelligent to understand this kind of stuff
If you connect with your dark empath you'll be able to see other dark empaths. It takes one to know another...
it doesn't look like much. cause most of the comments seem ignorant to just think people like this appear out of no where. i think trauma plays a part.
most of the commentors seem to be looking for a target to cast stones to feel better about their own imperfect lives tbh. a lot of comments on these types of videos are just people demonizing people with a condition to feel better about themselves. There's some cool takes but a lot are more like what i mentioned. Those types of comments come of more pathetic than interesting.
This is the most accurate description of my ex that I've found. I always knew he was toxic and narcissistic. But now I understand his game more than ever.
Very scary stuff everyone! Keep your head clear!
Sad that these people have to be like this . I feel sorry for people they hurt but also feel bad for them. Idk I pretty much keep to myself and I don't care what anyone says, I love myself and I try to be positive and motivational for others. I don't give to much and I don't want much back. Just respect
don't you think dark empaths are just victims of past trauma? cuz i do
Yes, most of us had a malignant narcissist parent
@@gnashsang or a narrcist friend
Victims of the past = a**holes in the present
@@show_me_your_kitties not an excuse, don't blame everybody
Yea it's because I know I am an empath so I over compensate and try to do a selfish act to "balance" my niceness and it's emotion based so it seems petty like the vid says suddenly selfish
I like that the video thumbnail is literally Yujiro Hanma.
tnx, i've finally learned what i am. i met someone and started to question myself and the things i did, i really do love her but when i see her face when we're together, I started to realize the horrid things I've done. for quite some time now I'm tryna find what i am or who am i annnndd... i am not proud, i don't even know what to do with this information maybe i would change or maybe become much worst.... but i guess learning what i am is the first step of changing for the better
If you fluctuate between confidence and shyness you might have a social anxiety disorder we like to call gullible self diagnosis
Thank you for the video the information was very educational.
For some reason I take satisfaction in everything this video describes accurately representing me.
When I was a kid (4 yo) I had viral meningitis and after that my behavior and my mind is changed beyond recognition because it was big trauma for me. Only thing I rarely have is narcissism. It's often uncomfortable to be in group of people when someone is crying or while watching movie because I don't feel nothing inside of myself. But the good thing is in rallying because I'm not afraid of consequences so I can go full throttle. It's really, really, really hard for someone to piss me off. I'm policeman so It's helping me in dangerous situations because I think 100% logically and 0% by empathy, and when I see dead body, injured person in agony, again I don't feel anything. It's weird but helpful. On the other hand, I can't stay in relationship too long.
I share some of these traits, but I have Asperger's so it's a bit hard to tell whether or not I'm a dark empath. I'm very validation driven, and I always feel the need to recieve praise. I can fluctuate from being socially awkward, to being popular and dominating conversations at school. I can understand what's right and wrong, and I follow a sense of morality that my parents raised me on. I've always been competitive, I'd cry whenever I lost a game as a little kid. I had a bit of superiority complex, since I was always told how smart I was. I had trouble focusing though, something that I still struggle with. I felt insecure about my height all the way up until my freshman year in highschool. I had anger issues, and I was sensitive to certain noises. When I was a toddler I constantly screamed, making it hard to take me anywhere. I stopped screaming when I went to preschool. Despite some of the issues I had, I was really popular. I had near perfect grades until middle school. I went from a public school to a private school, and my grades took a huge hit. My self esteem also took a huge hit. I had no friends, and I had nothing to be proud of academically. My grades are better now though. I've always been a perfectionist, that applies to myself, and other people. I've struggled with judging people, based on my concept of moral perfectionism. This has led to me feeling irritation when around certain people. I have also struggled with paranoia. I'm very interested in politics, so I have felt scared about others wanting to undermine me. I fear abandonment, and alienation. I'm very confrontational when it comes to my views being attacked. I lack the refinement that some dark personalities have. On Reddit, I would actively attack subs I didn't agree with. To me, offending certain people felt incredible. It felt liberating to take control, to pop their bubbles. I felt like I was fighting back, I felt like I was making myself heard. I eventually abandoned those habits because I got banned on multiple accounts, on multiple devices, and it just wasn't good for my mental health. It wasn't worth it, and I'm sure it hurt some people. I still haven't changed my views however.
dark empath doesn't exist. it's a new imagined term. In the DSM manual dark empath doesn't exist. When you start using empathy for making someone miserable that's not empathy any more that means you don't have empathy. Empathy means you're sorry when something bad happens to someone.
@@TheTricksterFigure Yeah, you're probably right.
What views are they? I hate reddit full of soy lovin Nancy's
@@TheTricksterFigure I don't believe in any of this stuff. However, just because it's not in the DSM doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It just means it hasn't been identified or discovered yet. Nothing was in the DSM before it was written. Science is always evolving.
With that said, most of this stuff is subjective and sounds like woo woo to me anyway.
@@specialsause949 yes you're right I know but this what is described in a video already exists and it's not called dark empath. They descrbed a psychopath and called it dark empath because it sounds interesting.
I took the SD3 and got Machiavellianism over psychopathy or narcissism. I do have a bit of a scrappy, let the bridges burn side, so it makes sense.
EVERYBODY has empathy. But everybody also lives a different life and certain events can effect and change the way a person reacts to situations. Don’t judge others try to stay loving
NAH SHUT UP
❤❤❤❤
I always feel like I'm surrounded by this kind of people, always trying to bring me down
Basically a dark empath is someone who is insincere and manipulative with u when they are using their abilities on you.
Wow, I know my oldest brother was (he's dead) a narcissist, but I couldn't quite place my other brother who wasn't right in the head, until now. Now I know he's a Dark Empath. He checks all the boxes and this video made me look deep into myself to see if I'm one as well......and I'm not.
right
As a dark empath... I find that the pictures in this video depicting me as a "Devil" 👿 with horns or any other negative figure as only making me want to dislike people more...
Very interesting…. Makes me question certain things. First time I’ve heard of a ‘dark empath’
I'd like to know who mistakes this light-hearted,magazine-style entertainment article for a university lecture on psychology,as after reading the comments there are many who seem to lack any humor or critical thinking.
A little 'knowledge' is a dangerous thing..... Like getting a 'minister degree' off the internet. 😅
We are not all dark, we can better humanity tbh. if our goal is the betterment of our existence than just our own self then so be it
I am a dark empath actually had to learn to learn this last two years.... Was a supper empath now I am learning to absorb this more..... life has taught me this you
This explains alot.
Although some may claim it impossible to know what pure evil is, I can safely say I've met it face to face.
His name was Eric Vandenberg. He was my 10th grade bully. He would often call me a "retard" just to shame me for my Autism, in spite of the fact I could act like a normal person well and true.
From this, he appointed himself as the ringleader of those who believed in his slanders and lies about my mental disability, and were egged by him to make my life miserable as well.
Things got worse when he used my Autism as a scapegoat, and would blame his misbehavior on my Autism, accusing me of wrongdoing as if I couldn't remember. Worse still, he and the rest of his posse would gaslight me by saying my Autism was making me hallucinate and misremember their abuse, claiming that I was seeing things that never happened, or misremember small details that were never there. Even when they sexually harassed me, they claimed it never happened, as they would often tell the adults, "He doesn't know what he's talking about, he's just a retard."
From this, Eric and his fellow ring of bullies would claim that my Autism was making me misjudge right from wrong, that I was morally insane. Whenever I did something socially acceptable, like kissing a girl on the hand after a dance, they would punish me for it, saying what I did was unacceptable. The same could be said whenever I did something acceptable, as they would commend me for it.
He exploited me being self conscious of my mental illness, and did everything within his power to make my life miserable. My moral compass was broken, I could no longer distinguish right from wrong, and I was afraid that I was going completely insane.
The adults were neglectful as well, as they avoided taking full responsibility to handle the situation directly whenever I asked them for help, and instead, left me to handle it myself, even though I lacked the resources, let alone the manpower to do so, as we were living in a boarding school, I could only avoid them for so long.
Even so, I tried to befriend Eric whenever he seemed lonely, but the more I tried to befriend him, the more he hated me for it, and would punish me. I knew he had problems, but whenever I asked him what his problem was, he always said it was me.
I was very suicidal that year, as no one was willing to help me, even when I was unable to help myself of a situation I was cornered in.
I didn't want to kill myself because I lost the will to live, but because I was afraid of becoming a monster. I would rather die than become a psychopath.
I was traumatized that year, and it took a lot of effort for me to recover.
It wasn't until years later until a former colleague apologized to me for not being there for me, that he revealed something I hadn't known. The entire time, Eric too had Autism.
It was then I realized, Eric was willing to manipulate my self consciousness, and my lack of knowledge of my own Autism, to drive me insane to the point of suicide just to defend his pride, just to hide something about himself he didn't want anyone else to know.
To this day, I cannot comprehend how anyone as young as we were, 15 years of age, could be capable of doing something so evil.
Some may say this is a case of insecurity. But I say, it's the face of pure evil.
Am I a Dark Empath?
I'll call myself a Hopeless Empath. I cannot control sometimes how the emotions of others run through me. If i let anyone down i am severely critical.
Indeed
go visit a psychiatrist, you have serious issues
There's also a Dark Triad as well as a Light Triad personality quizzes. Whatever our darkest is means to work on our weaknesses, and our brightest to keep it going. 🌸
that’s wild bro
Empaths have a super power, double-edged but nonetheless an advantage when needed. With all power, do you use yours for good or for evil?
every human being has empathy towards someone. And you think that you're special because of that? 😂😂
I know a guy who my parents and I thought was a psychopath.
Now we know he is a dark empath! Thanks!
When I first learned about DE's I realized that the main villain of the Starwar's prequels, Palpatine, was the picture perfect example of one.
I Do Hope Others May Find Ur Channel
Tbh, knowing I'm a dark empath doesn't really bother me much, from the people around me and the way I grew up it helped me survive and it's kept me at the top of my life and I don't plan to go back down at any point.
Woah
I need to read more evidence-based studies or peer reviewed articles/journals to confirm that this is even a legit personality trait.
Do you believe people considered "empathic" exist? And if so, to what extent does this "empathic" trait set them apart? Is it actually a significant difference? If "empaths" exist, then what would stop one from developing a personality disorder of some type? Idk, that's how I look at it... I actually think people can train their empathic capabilities as well with proper insight.
It's nowhere in mainstream study. LOL.
SCIECNE ☝🤓
Introverts (like me, an INFJ who was married to a high functioning narcissist) by definition as far as I know are not empathetic but place ego value into helping others over helping ourselves. We can also be difficult to tell apart from NPD cases when under developed but we most certainly don't all have it.
This video seems to me like a very precise description of npd that is apt to be gobbled up by non self aware narcissists looking to gaslight higher quality fuel sources. Sam Vaknin pretty much set a trend that seeks to define everyone as pathological, and I don't think it's useful.
I have run into a number of people on VR Chat, that fit most of these perfectly. and explains why i dont feel safe around certain people on there.
I'm an introverted dark empath. But as soon as get into shape and build some muscle, I'll start socializing, scout's honor!
Interesting take on the near-impossible task of interpreting my own traits, several bells went off with the behavioral patterns. Paranoid Personality Disorder with Narcissistic and Antisocial Features.
Most of us could display a few of these traits .
Life experience had me learning to cut empathy if i feel others are trying to drain my energy, then I reverse the situation or cut them out. I’ll never be a victim again.
The one I met , just hit all those 10 points mentioned in this video!
Let's see all the people saying "literaly me"
ikr its so cringe
So a Dark Empath is basically the same thing as a Dark Templar.
Ufa! My honesty, to the verge of sincerecide, saves me from tagging lying boxes. Half truths and other manipulation games are delicious but I'm strictly adherent to not lying and I only backstab after stabbing from the front. I tag most other boxes though
I've never understood what I am. I can read people like an open book with large print, but... that's as far as it goes. I've always suspected that there is a subspecies of people that never talked about
Although, I agree that dark empaths exists I have noticed that their traits are a bit different that how they are explained in the video. After all the mixed personalities are most difficult to define. Here is my list:
1. The first point about being extroverts is true, but adding to their point this is true because they usually are surrounded by a lot of people not necessary because they want to, but because circumstances has given them a lot of people around e.g. the person has an influential family and from an early childhood has lots of contacts and these people are more or less a friend of his, but also of the family. However, they enjoy this popularity as it helps them feed of others, whilst people perceive them as successful enough and as such do not see this person's motives. Also, they appear extroverts because to them reverse psychology can only make them satisfied i.e. whilst some worry how the world perceives them, they feel comfortable around large crowds as they do not care how the world perceives them, which could be one of the biggest issues for introverts and shy people.
2. All the points about triggering drama e.t.c. are to an extent true, but they may use these methods or many others not in the video or may not use any of these. One thing that holds true is that they have bad intentions - they just don't want to see good results and thus use any opportunity. Bringing on to number
3. As they enjoy others not to feel good they tend to do this with no purpose at all. Unlike the examples given in the video -these traits are common to many people for a at a point of time e.g. envious people can make someone's life a little bit more miserable if they could. These traits can make almost anyone appear a bit of a dark empath. The difference here is as they sense your weakness themselves being an empath they use it against you regardless of that if they have a motive. Unlike normal people who may do something in an act of envy e.g. they try to eliminate you from their way because they want to be like you, have your job e.t.c. Whilst these people will just do it because they can.
4. Adding on to point 2 and 3, they really enjoy feeding of other empaths mostly, unlike narcissists who try to feed on anyone. Nowdays narcissists can actually be easy to spot to most normal people because they kind of loose how others perceive them due to their lack of empathy. Whilst, a dark empath is aware, but is also easily satisfied with most people because he himself has a wide range of emotions in his vocabulary as an empath himself. Meaning he likes seeing people's reactions, only that those reactions have to be negative in nature, but the more reactions the better that makes it interesting for them. Who would have more reactions than another empath. An example I think is Christian Grey from 50 shades of grey, although, the movie tries to indicate such a character it has not been demonstrated fully enough, but one characteristic of a dark empath is sadism. Feeding of someone's pain whilst watching on how they react. Being wealthy himself he is just looking on how to enjoy himself with something.
5. The fact that they have no other motive than that of someone else's dissatisfaction makes them really hard to spot because one feels as if they are in a series of unfortunate events whilst being around them and cannot really put their foot on a reason. I am sure most of us know when someone may be jealous of us and we kind of try and avoid such people, but with this person -they are not jealous of you, they don't want your money and you think to yourself that there's no way they could actually be doing this to you
6. Finally, as they are good empaths they read your deepest psychological fears and secrets and use them against you, of course. This means that even little things like being shy when most people would be supportive of this quality of yours, this person can destroy you in every possible way and you cannot even describe it because it would sound like you are being delusional to feel things this way. Which could be a terrible thing if you are his prey as no one will believe someone would do something of this sort as apparently there would beno motive. How can he use it when you are shy you may ask? Well, he would simply use it against you in public places - he will raise your embarrasement for no reason so that you would become even more shy in their presence. Whilst a normal person make try to make you more comfortable around them.
7. You can never negotiate with them. The moment you negotiate they know what you want and you will never get it because unlike narcissists who enjoy not letting you have what you want, this person has only one motive : that you don't get what you want. You are their amusement.
8. The do not know of the word "co-operation" they appear co-operative being an empath, but really deep inside the don't care at all about it. As such, you as a co-operative person see them as chilled, but really they are just not agreeing with you.
Thanks.
