Plugging a quiz in there and saying it's not for you but for someone you know. Smooth!
Fo me
@Seth Trenton yea sure... and coincidentally both of you and the dude you replied to both have your accounts made on the same day so you’re just the same guy just using a different account
Im a sociopath and follow everything :)
So, if you are willing to take the quiz and interested, u aren’t a psychopath. They NEVER have a clue they are one. Distorted sense of self.
@@tonysimmons5729 That isnt true. For one, no psychopath is the same as another, even regarding traits and their intensity so unless you are qualified to make such outlandish assumptions, please dont as this is a serious subject.
I hate how the mainstream media portray psychopath and sociopath
Ikr.
How exactly
@AfriKing true. Like they always the bad guys or an anti-hero
Perhaps there should be a Psychopath and sociopath pride parade day? LOL!
My brother is definitely a sociopath. I have empathy for his well being but I can no longer have a relationship with him because he negatively impacts my well being and those I care about.
It is natural for people to want to protect themselves.
And sometime over empathy can cause blindness to those who would cause harm.
Hollywood is not responsible to enlightened people. We have access to libraries and professionals for that.
This is the mainstream media bruh, have you seen telegram
Funny how everyone here in the comments are suddenly doctors on this topic and know all about it.
Nothing funny about it tbh
Not funny how a commenter knows everyone. here.
For your information I have seen 9 psychology UA-cam videos so I'm pretty much a licensed therapist
@Wassup not really learn about cluster b personality traits boom you are golden. All cluster b share lack of empathy, lying, gas lighting, stalking, cheating, manipulating. The only difference is some can be more violent an some are more methodical an calculated. But all share those common qualities listed no degree necessary. The people that know them best tend to be victims of such types not some asshole with a degree.
Pretty much every topic, though. Also, the fact that everyone seems to think they're experts doesn't mean there isn't an expert in the room.
As someone diagnosed with ASPD, this is no different, than all the other "comparison" vids... Personally I have less than 5 people I truly care about. Everyone else, I feel nothing. Sociopaths definitely can have bonds, for me its very limited. Spend most of time by myself. I have for a long time, and I like it that way. If you know, then you know 💯
perfectly explained
How you know you care?
same
I don't trust anyone on the ASPD spectrum.
@@xx_darksoul_xx8296 we can’t control it bro
It always bugs me when someone throws around these terms without even knowing what they mean

Keep it simple!
Psychopaths are born
Sociopaths are made.
It is not simple. So why keep it simple?
False. Sociopathy is genetic. And as all genetic things, it will need a trigger or a push to start it. It is not ‘made’
@@domkay4601
“Psychopath can be a sociopath but a sociopath can’t be a psychopath” Confusing? It can be...
So you believe sociopaths are born. Ok well let’s break it down socio-, prefix. socio- is attached to roots and sometimes words and means "social; sociological; society” when forming compound words such as socioeconomic or sociopath. You see -o- combining form of Latin “socius” -a fellow, companion, comrade.
Society -a group, or a group of
people who live together in a particular social system. In the 1880s, the prefix "socio-" first came up in science and medicine. German-American psychiatrist and neurologist Karl Birnbaum appears to have coined the word "sociopathy" in 1909. Then, in 1930, American psychologist George E. Partridge popularized the term and contrasted it with "psychopathy."
Partridge described a sociopath as an individual who displayed antisocial behavior or defied social norms. Psychology researchers generally believe that psychopaths tends to be born - it’s a genetic predisposition - while sociopaths tend to be made by their environment. Which is not to say that psychopaths may not also suffer from some sort of childhood trauma progressing the psychopathy and vise versa. A sociopath can have some sort genetic predisposition, I’m not saying that a sociopath can’t have a genetic predisposition. That would be inaccurate and arrogant considering every single human born has some sort of genetic predisposition. But the difference is that a psychopath doesn’t need a trigger. They are a psychopath from birth. A sociopath from birth until the “triggering” event was normal in the idea of they could form bonds display GENUINE empathy and sympathy, if they were narcissistic, it was on the lower end of the spectrum.
From a diagnostic standpoint, the etiology or cause of psychopathy is different from that of sociopathy. I contend that psychopathy is the result of “nature” (genetics), while sociopathy is the result of “nurture” (environment).
Research has shown psychopaths have underdeveloped components of the brain related to a physiological defect commonly thought to be responsible for emotion regulation and impulse control.
Sociopathy, on the other hand, is more likely the product of childhood trauma and physical or emotional abuse. Because sociopathy appears to be learned rather than innate, sociopaths are capable of empathy in certain circumstances, and with certain individuals, but not others. Sociopaths, in general, tend to be more impulsive and erratic in their behavior than their psychopath counterparts. While also having difficulties in forming attachments to others, some sociopaths may be able to form an attachment to a like-minded group or person. Unlike psychopaths, most sociopaths don’t hold down long-term jobs or present much of a normal family life to the outside world.
All in all, psychopathy and sociopathy are different cultural labels applied to the diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder. Up to 3 percent of the population may qualify for a diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder. This disorder is more common among males and mostly seen in people with an alcohol or substance abuse problem, or in forensic settings such as prisons.
Sociopaths tend to be more erratic, rage-prone, and unable to lead as much of a normal life
Psychopaths tend to be more manipulative, can be seen by others as more charming, lead a semblance of a normal life, and minimize risk in criminal activities.
Maybe this clears it up for you
@@robiimccann sociopaths are genetically predisposed to certain cues that trigger certain behaviors.
@@chiriviscospower ok you just somewhat validated what I was trying to convey.
Those who are considered a “psychopath” will show some sort of deviant behavior from a very very early age. i.e. young children who torture animals or those that are pyromaniacs, the list is quite extensive. But those who top experts (some of whom I was blessed to be a student of) call a “sociopath” generally didn’t display early deviant behavior. Which is not to say that psychopaths may not also suffer from some sort of childhood trauma progressing the psychopathy and vise versa. A sociopath can have some sort genetic predisposition, I’m not saying that a sociopath can’t have a genetic predisposition. That would be inaccurate and arrogant considering every single human born has some sort of genetic predisposition. But the difference is that a psychopath doesn’t need a "trigger" or "event" in order for the psycho to make an appearance. They are a psychopath from birth. A person who is later diagnosed with sociopathy, from birth until the “triggering” event was normal in the idea of they could form HEATHY bonds display GENUINE empathy and sympathy, if they were narcissistic, it was on the lower end of the spectrum, most of them didn’t torture animals or try to burn down the neighbors house with them inside.
From a diagnostic standpoint, the etiology or cause of psychopathy is different from that of sociopathy. Which is why through personal experience which "triggered" a determination to understand why people do what they do in turn lead to me choosing my path of education to follow that of psychology is why I contend that psychopathy is the result of “nature” (genetics), while sociopathy is the result of “nurture” (environments).
IMHO, the biggest difference is their origin. You don't usually become a psychopath, but are born as one, whereas sociopaths are a product of a harmful environment. This would explain why sociopaths are far closer to normal humans in their mind, whereas psychopaths are so detached that they hardly are capable of feeling fear, regret, disgust, shame... And are thus immune to burn-out, depression, and PTSD!
You’re right! But there is a very very small chance of a toddler developing psychopathy tendencies and brain issues that are awfully different from the normal brain in toddler brains. Psychopaths are born, only a very small percentage are after birth, brain problems highly involved. Sociopaths are made 100%, depending on how bad the conditions they are in, how much negativity influences them, corrupts them.
I really hate how the media portrays Psychopaths and can’t even tell the differences between sociopaths, narcissistic people, psychopaths.
@@bme7995 what annoys me even more is how people defend psychopaths and fanboy over them. Psychopaths are really hard to identify in reality, except when they do something and when they do people rush in and defend their actions...
I had a colleague and she was most definitely one. She was the best liar I've ever seen and she was ruthless and cunning. She manipulated others into doing her bidding and take the blame for the consequences. Meanwhile, I was seen as the antisocial weirdo and even pointing out how she had lied and how people did things against their interests was utterly ignored because she was charismatic, fun, beautiful...
I pretty much told her I knew and she didn't give a F. She was sure that I could not harm her. All that changed was that she stopped acting as if she cared about anything other than herself when we were alone...
Seeing people admiring murderers and making them models I'd strong women ticks me off.
I know that psychopath comes with slme really nice traits, but that's no excuse for such behavior...
@@edi9892 People defending psychopaths or anyone evil is truly sickening. If they murdered their beloved, nobody would be fawning over them huh?
That’s horrible. Are you guys still friends to this day? It’s good you have a good intuition, many or most antisocial people have great intuition, of course not all but many. I find it interesting.
And your friend must have been quite the manipulator. I couldn’t even lie if I wanted to, I have a habit of looking away from people’s eyes. Whenever I stare too long into people’s eyes, I get this intense urge to do something and I start having rapid heart palpations.
There are some psychopaths who aren’t villains as portrayed in media or movies. Mostly there are cruel ones but hiding away. I agree psychopaths are hard to identify.
I don’t get why people admire murderers, what is there in murderers that makes others excited or feeling admiration for? It’s truly pathetic.
I used to have a close friend, let’s just say his name is A. My friend A, we met each other in 6th grade and became close during 7th grade I think. I always felt like he had this strange presence within him, as a kid, I’ve always had good intuition and it wasn’t really hard for me to notice some things. Just some.
Female and male psychopaths are different in some ways so identifying gets a bit trickier but personally in my opinion, I’d say females are harder to identify as psychopaths mainly because of how the media and movie portrays men as psychopaths more than females.
So I could tell something was off with A, when I first met him, he wasn’t always alone but he looked bored around people as if he wanted something more amusing. We met each other and had some things in common such as reading, writing, art, into horror genres, calligraphy etc.
We stopped being friends after he just cut off contacts with me, as in ghosted me, he dropped out of high school of Sophomore year. I visited his parents home and they brushed me away, as I insisted on knowing what happened, they told me and then made me leave.
They said something about him having mental issues. I couldn’t see him again. It doesn’t really visibly show he’s a psychopath but not long after finding out he had killed our neighbors pets, I just went along with the fact he’s messed up. Not to mention my pet was missing as well.
Being in denial, I kept contacting him and he told me we weren’t friends anyways. I got upset as it’s a natural reaction if anyone did this or said this to you. We cursed at each other until he blocked me, then our friendship completely ended officially that day.
I’m not a sociopath, narcissist, nor a psychopath, I’m out of those categories. I feel sad cause of our memories but I don’t regret ending our friendship. Who knows how long a person can last with a psycho lmao.
People really need to get out of their mind and open their eyes, psychopaths aren’t gonna spare you even if you’re their friend. There will always be trouble regardless.
@@bme7995 I met two people who I consider psychopaths. I liked both of them, though that female colleague scared me TBH. She could have ruined me with a wisper.
The other person was my grandfather. He was a really cool dude. He was the only of my relatives who spoke about WWII, as we've ended up on the losing side and my relatives were too traumatized or shameful to talk about it.
He was refreshingly different. He talked in a matter-of-fact manner without making any excuses, nor painting himself as a hero or victim. What I also really appreciated about him was that despite him being raised to hate Slavic people, he didn't give a damn and despite the horrors at the eastern front, he never held any grudges. He married a Slavic woman and visited Slavic countries, whereas other people kept grudges alive for several generations!
He was self-taught, sly, and mischievous, but for the most part not judging. He was the only one who didn't give me an earful, or threaten to disinherit me for my taste of women. As a boy, I found an illegal rifle and shot with it and while everyone jumped into cover, he casually walked up to the direction of the shots and then asked me what I was aiming at and then asked me to hand over the rifle and shot my target (a street sign) dead center and that in his 80s!
However, he was not a good guy by any stretch of the definition. He protected my mother from a relative who tried to molest her. He chased after a conman and beat him up to get his wife's money back. He got into prison nearly as soon as he was released from his POW status because he had nothing better to do than to steal dynamite and go fishing in the city lake... He visited Moskow in the height of the cold war and smuggled goods in and out for fun and chased after skirts while his wife was left at home! To make things worse, his little daughter (my mother) accompanied him and he forgot about her and she was lost in a place where no one spoke German, except those that had business shooting Germans... and everyone was afraid of spies and the special police... Shortly before his death, he promised everyone his wealth and spent everything secretly knowing that the vultures would fight each other to the last feather...
He was a fun guy to be around, but not a responsible worker, father nor husband...
What are you basing that on? The current literature is that there is both a genetic and environmental component to both Psychopathy and Sociopathy. There is absolutely no credible evidence to suggest that 'Psychopaths' don't feel any emotions at all, infact they can feel anger and fear just fine, especially if they get into a situation where someone has caught them doing something they can be very explosive with emotions it's just that their emotions are usually much more muted than the neurotypical person, especially when it comes to compasion for other people and everyone varies there isn't a single recipe that all psychopaths follow..
Besides, those two terms Psychopath and Sociopath are highly disputed - Psychopathy is just an area of study it's not something that is diagnosable where as Sociopathy is generally referred to ASPD.
Sociopath here, we can actually care about you. Do not expect us to care, we will usually won't. But the fact that I adore my girlfriend really tell that we can care of a few ones.
I have some psychopath traits from family genes, my family is filled with psychos, I don't think they understand certain emotions at all.
I see, that’s nice to hear. Do not generalize all sociopaths though, there are sociopaths who actually lack empathy and you’re one of the sociopaths who actually have empathy.
I absolutely detest romance, it’s just something bothersome in life. I can be happy without love, happiness is different from love. You’re lucky you have a girlfriend, I don’t have anyone to care for.
I’m not a sociopath or a psychopath, I’m normal and completely out of those categories.
My mom is a narcissistic person with sociopath tendencies, my dad is neutral/normal though I’ve never seen him cry.
In the end, regardless of what we are, be it sociopath, psychopath, narcissist, etc, we are all humans in the end.
@@bme7995 Thanks for your kind answer. I am not the romantic type either, some call this situation a "Twin Flame". I frankly think this is the case. It is quite strange to me to feel this way.
But you said it right. Mental disorder or not, we are all individuals.
Atleast you know and you are aware of yourself.. But how about these ignorant people continuously stressing out others. I'm an introvert and an Empath, I want to go away from stress but I don't want to lose them at the same time and I'm trying to help them instead
@@frankaustriablas6186 Help who exactly, ASPD?
@@bme7995 Using the term "normal" in this situation feel a bit wrong. It's implying people with ASPD aren't normal. They are, they're just dealing with a disorder. And they're not alone in doing so.
I was about to say I don't have a lack of empathy but then I realized how I like recently 1 of my close neighbors died and I haven't cared. Plus when either of my grandmothers died I didn't even cry and I just comforted my mom. The only cat of mine that I was remotely sad died was my cat Linnie only because she spent hours with me and I had gotten her when she was a kitten.
Don't self-diagnose. Go to a professional if you want a clinical diagnosis.
I agree with Angel. Don't self diagnose. Also, if you are lacking empathy and suspect you have ASPD, don't you think you shouldn't be posting about it on a site owned by a company known for making psychological profiles on it's users?
You killed the cat dude
Your not a psychopath
My dad was dying and i barely felt anything thats when i realised somethign was wrong he is still alive btw
Be wary of the DSM-5, 3 and 4 seem to be more accurate for many mental health disorders. 5 changed a lot to "not hurt people's feelings"
As someone actually studying psych
No.. Just... No
3 and 4 were far too ridgid and would often leave out people who need help
And feelings matter especially to mental health
It's also backed by more research then the others and is more supported by other countries mental health diagnostic manuals then 4 and 3 are, no please please please use 5 don't be an idiot
I agree on earlier versions being more accurate
@@Sip_Dhitstudying psych but not a dr. Psychology does not go in depth on cluster B, so many drs end up Ill equipped to help victims.

Psychopaths aren't crazy that's what's so dangerous "they know what they are doing
depends
The things they do sounds very crazy to normal People..but normal to them..means they are crazy
@@geogeorge8112 not always, it really depends. I have watched interviews with psychopaths and serial killers. A'lot of them sound like normal people and some even sound intelligent. They only sound crazy when they explain their sadistic evil thoughts and behavior.
I may be a sociopath and I get angry really quick and give myself away quickly so I don't really "Know what I am doing".
Can you do a video on how Politicians and Business Tycoons with respects to how they are Socially Engineered (with positive and negative reinforcement) to to maximize their narcissistic traits in order to obtain more wealth, status, and creditable influence among their audience in social hierarchies?
As well as how this behavior is may be highly contagious and may have many short term and long term effects on the people they inspire or those that imitate their behavior?
Well explained. Having a conscience is often one method to distinguish the two, with psychopaths deemed to be lacking one, whereas sociopaths have one (hence they can display more erratic displays of emotion)
so basicly a psychopath is us when we play GTA
L O L
Well I do tend to go down the same route in Red Dead Redemption 2 Online
Besides you wouldn't like it when a griefers near me
well, kind of but we don’t frequently act on any desires
Its basically when you play as trevor
I saw Sherlock in the thumbnail and immediately clicked 😊👍🏼

Why? He's not a sociopath.
A sociopath may be someone who only makes minor transgressions that don't cause serious harm or distress
Nah man Sociopaths can be killers too easily
True. They, also, might be someone who rapes murders.
Sociopaths are drug sellers, pimps, hookers, drug traffickers, and illegal gun sellers. They can have a knife or a pistol, but they won't use it. The most common violent scenarios involve rival gangs and in these situations the criminals who get hit won't talk to authorities, so the stabbings and shootings are safe in this respect. What happens in the underworld, stays in the underworld.
Didn’t agree that sociopaths aren’t likely to be murderers. Also when sociopaths go to therapy, they usually get diagnosed with depression instead.
From what I've read on the subject, I honestly believe it is, at least in part, a neurological difference.
"My personal theory is..." But that's not how this works. This is about what the words mean. There is no room for personal theories here.
So many people get this wrong 🤦🏽♀️ and as a psych major, IT DRIVES ME CRAZY
Would you hurt that kind of people? ;)
arent psychopaths and sociopaths considered the same?
@@karlhans6678 no one is born bc the brain didn't fully develop and/or genetics and a sociopath is made from their environment. (Childhood abuse) But this video isn't entirely correct and I don't agree with him not touching on all the disorders that fall under ASPD aka cluster B disorder.
I thought that a sociopath is someone that would see a person get hurt or even killed and don’t feel a thing. But would not want to hurt or kill a person.
On the other hand, a psychopath is someone that not only doesn’t care for the suffering of others, but enjoys seeing people suffer. So, they would hurt or kill.
not all psychopaths kill. in fact most do not they have no empathy and psychopaths are born. sociopaths are made, there is a difference between the 2. sociopaths are more impulsive and are prone to bursts of sporadic rage. both disorders can be dangerous and both have zero empathy. psychopaths brains are wired differently. they fear nothing
@@bigceazerpsychopaths can fear you are silly
@@Love-om9em go and read the DSM. they have zero remorse and they are fearless becuase of the way their brains are wired. their brains are wired differently to a normal person. its a common trait that most of them have. they don't get nervous like a normal person would. look all of this is in the DSM just read it, it tells you this.
@@bigceazer i know they have no remorse but they can fear
Psychopaths are born bc their brains didn't fully develop and/ or genetics Sociopath can bond we can love who we choose but mostly stay isolated. we are impulsive and we have outburst a sociopath can not hide like a psychopath. Everyone says be afraid of the sociopaths but they have no clue what they are saying. Sociopaths are made from abuse in childhood a lot of foster children end up being sociopaths or RAD kids. sociopaths who kill do have to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol Jeffery dahmer is a great example he had to drink before killing because he found it distasteful we do have a conscience unlike psychopaths
“Sosheopath”
Took the quiz as third person. Seems to match my medical record: Psychopathic tendencies
People with aspd may have cognitive empathy,, where they understand the emotions someone is going through but isnt able to feel them
I am a sociopath so I don’t like how they are judging me for it. Some of us sociopaths enjoy the lifestyle change. #SociopathPride
ewwww
Well, if you don't actively try and harm people nor try and get people hurt in some way, then that's nice. I appreciate honesty
Eh? Elaborate
cringe. and youre probably not even a sociopath but a narcassist. Get help. Nothing to be proud of.
Sociopaths tend to be more aggressive, psychopaths engage more in instrumental aggression
Not all Sociopaths and Psychopaths have the same emotional regulation or expression. For instance, some have temper tantrums (most likely a sociopath), some have no emotional output at all. What I mean is, not all S or P have the drive or find it necessary to kill someone. They also have a frontal lobe (90% of the time) which means just because there is little inhibition emotionally, that doesn't mean that they can't regulate themselves, that they are crazy, or that they can't function in society without harming anyone. You shouldn't be diagnosed with ASPD for "unusual behavior" and I think everyone who really needed a therapist would be diagnosed with it if that was the case. Psychopaths tend to be more practical and methodic than sociopaths, more, controlling over themselves and others when when absolutely necessary. Sociopaths are just neurotypicals with
an..........akward........upbringing.
Abusive neglect up bringing not awkward

This test isn't working either :( I used to love taking your tests, but none of them work any more.
Test works it’s just really long
I’m pretty sure I’ve met and interfaced with sociopaths.., but less certain about having known psychopaths…
I think the first is a characteristic of almost every mental illness. Like codepentent for example, they feel to have undeveloped sense of self
Everyone is a therapist now days, I love people more than ever🤣,
Usually with a phychopath it's typically neurologically rooted and with a sociopath it's more so a product of nurture,conditioning and environment/atmosphere that they live in.
Took test for partner , got through the entire test . Clicked submit and it reverted back to the article .
Your psychopathy test is all based on having a friend. How about me? I don't have friends, I mean I have but I am not that too reliable to any of them or anything.
Just think as if u were the friend .what would they say , act toward u then put things u are most likely to do . pretty simple

A sociopath is one who sees others as impersonal objects to be manipulated to fulfill their own narcissistic needs without any regard for the hurtful consequences of their selfish actions

Looked at the first question on the quiz and had to look up what “irks” meant
Very irresponsible of this channel to have people take online "tests " to diagnose each other. If you suspect someone has a mental illness do not try to diagnose them instead encourage them to see a psychologist/therapist etc or other medical professional.

If you have come this far to figure out what was wrong with the person who messed with your life. I met two sisters a while back one changed her personality and assumed my life-she was a sociopath. The other wanted to own me, even said she was running my life, I wasn’t allowed to have anyone but her and she was a stalker, she was a malignant narcissist. But what does it make a difference what they were exactly when they were equally messed up people.
Once he said psychopaths and sociopaths are "crazy" kinda turned me away.

Is there any way you can make a video explaining the personality test how concerning is it to have high to moderate percentages of the dark traid traits???
If you click on their link to take the quiz, there is no quiz. It just keeps looping back to their website where they get ad revenue every time you click it.
For nearly 10 years I was in a marriage to a beautiful (physically beautiful) woman who,4 years into the marriage, was diagnosed with type 2 bipolar disorder and narcissistic personality disorder. However she seem to me to fit the DMS IV description of a sociopath. She is also now a psychologist and has a commercial pilot's license, for which I believe she would have to lie about her diagnoses. Is there some overlap among these three disorders? All I know is that, after the first two years, the marriage was HELL. I would strongly advise anyone here who is romantically involved with a person with type 2 bipolar disorder to run away, fast and far. BTW, the link to your quiz just returns me to this video.
I have ASPD, and the way I think of the difference is that they both have the same symptoms, but a psychopath uses their symptoms, where a sociopath is used by their symptoms
i've been searching for this one accurate comment in this section. thank you, at last.
The answers of the test are all mixed up. It’s asking about how my friend feels about dating and the answers are like “I can sleep well or can’t” lol
Actually a very interesting study found through a brain scan that psychopaths CAN feel empathy when asked to do so, meaning that their empathy is not automatic like in most people, but is set in manual mode and they choose not to do so because they consider it a nuisance.
Nope. They just can't even if they want it.
What study? This is not sarcasm but a sincere request; tell us what study.
You mean sociopath right? Because they still have emotion, they just dont know how to handle it. But psyco? Hell no they dont give a shit about feeling emotion to everyone they known except it benefit them
I got psychopath... well shit... I should run for president 🤔
I would definitely vote if I can
I sent the test to a friend and got back psychopathic tendencies about myself
Dude, the answers don’t match with the questions on the test after a certain point - you’ll wanna sort that out..
Yeah the effort put into this channel rivals that of Psych for Dummies. May as well read a Wikipedia page, that'd be more accurate
I noticed this too & was so confused
Good one bro
Plot twist, what if you are the socipath?
This was awesome
The quiz options are messed up
I love this video! 😍😍🚩☺️
GREAT video topic. Very helpful ♥️
Why use the voice of a 19 year old for these videos and suggest the speaker is the psychologist here? Sort of a gap in credibility.
And then use phrases such as "in my personal opinion" rather than cite any actual research. Not much "Practical Psychology" being applied on this channel
I agree to some extend but I also see that this style of presentation including the voice attract more of the casual modern crowd. In regards to UA-cam this might make for a wider spread and that's fine with me since there's still valuable information to be found here.
@@lostpopcorns I agree to some extent but instead of the role of a narrator the very young voice leads us to believe he is the wise and experienced psychologist who has made these observations and has all this knowledge.
@@wfqsfg I see what you mean. Being young includes a lack of experience and no established authority in the field. But I don't think they're going for in depth analysis and authority so in their own style it fits the theme and format. Budget could also be an aspect, I have no clue what a good voice narrator costs these days.
You just described 100% of Los Angeled, New York City, and Chicago. Things that make you go hmmmm...
I clicked this video because it reminds me of Benedict Cumberbacth's Sherlock Holmes. 😂
LOL SAME
Sociopath : They dont know how to handle emotion
Psychopath : They dont have any emotion
I watch an interview with the ice man a notorious mafia hit man. They way he described things and am going off the top of my head here but breaking something on a person was no different then breaking the leg off a chair. You are pretty right on the money when they just see people like objects to be used and manipulated pretty chilling
I've seen that interview as well, but what was REALLY shocking was that he had a family that he cared for. The money he made from killing he used to put his daughters through college, he would buy presents for wife and kids on Christmas, and he said that if he wasn't out on mob business he would always be home with his family. His wife and kids backed all of this up and they seemed very genuine from what I could tell. This was the first time I'd ever heard of a psychopath family man and I was lost for words.

Being a sociopath is one thing you don't wanna be since people tend to mistake you for a psychopath seriously i get called out a psychopath for my lack lf empathy and weird behavior ,people it's not my fault if i lack empathy, Empathy for me became nothing since 2011 after my grandpa died and i have to face the cruel reality that everyone might attempt to kill you someday and that stick to my mind after what happened to him, No he wasn't killed but my aunt tried to kill me once or twice....... And seing how my so called friends used to just use me as a tool it worsen to say the least, i mean i lack what emotion to use someone dies i laugh, someone cries i laugh, a baby cries i feel joy, I rarely feel sad nor empathy this days whether or not someone gets hurt or not the crazy part is people said i will kill them which is partially right since grudges but it's probably because of my weird habit of playing with knives and other weird habits, my weird habits are somewhat close to a psychopath but i could assure that im not besides the dark humor that i like, People tend to mistake me for a psychopath because of that aswell, but either way i still have somewhat of empathy the only times i felt emphatic was to my family.....my fathers side but not to anyone else i mean i still don't understand why people feel sad after a breakup or if someone dies should i cry but either way this video is accurate
or ptsd id you are living in perpitual danger in your head all the time you are scared fear ,leads to anger anger leads to hate
Oh wow according to your quiz my mother is a psychopath 😱 now what do I do cuz she will never go get help
At 0:20 it really sounds like you say "for black of a better word"
I'm wonder if the "B" in "better" threw you off or if you really think that's the phrase or I'm hearing incorrectly
To be more realistic. The majority of people have their close friends and family whom they have deep bonds with . And typically healthy people will have a general respect and positive regard towards their community, but you don’t have aspd if you don’t LOVE everyone around you.
I'm crazy when I see a sharp knife is all I can say!
The test says my friend he's psychopath tendencies which my friend deems quite offensive.
Kind of shallow and limited in information / view-points. As such, the video material here feels kind of one sided and paints a more dominantly negative picture, which isn't correct nor fair (these ego states aren't truly abnormal and as everything in existence - there are pros and cons to them). Still though, "B" for the effort.
It’s main difference is simple a psychopath is born and sociopaths are made through some event in their life.
But I agree with you. Too one sided and misleading
@@robiimccann I keep hearing this and it's absolute rubbish. It sounds good, even as though it could be true, but it's rubbish. No one is born a psychopath, they form their attitudes to live growing up. If by born you mean earlier in their life then I agree, I would say they come from your much a loving, caring environment they grow up in and how their parents act towards each other and how much attention they are given, but they don't come out of the womb as psychopaths.
Sociopaths I think can be created by many different things, they can also gain their tendencies at an early age, they are their family and friends getting things by behaving in a certain way, they can be empathetic and then a certain life event changes how they behave (although I think this can happen for psychopaths as well), or they can just be educated in such a way that they see it as an advantage to behave that way.
The way I see it, and as the name suggests, sociopaths like to be around people, they manipulate people by being continually part of a group, where psychopaths manipulate people when they happen to come into contact with people, they tend to be more loners because of they did hang out in larger groups their thoughts and views would be uncovered and they would be more at risk of being found out if they committed acts of violence. I think the term psychopath and sociopath are used too quickly though and it's not so black and white, there is overlap and some psychopaths have social tendancies whilst some sociopaths don't like to hang out in such large groups.
I know I've written a lot here, but the real difference is that psychopaths are more physically violent and often do what they do purely for pleasure, whilst sociopaths do what they do to benefit themselves financially, emotionally, and to gain almost self congratulation to make themselves feel better. Both are about getting pleasure in some way, but I think sociopaths do it with a purpose in mind and not just for control or self image.
@@mattpotter8725 do you believe that a a male who is gay was born that way?
Uhhh what about if you know that you do bad things, like you can understand empathy, but it just doesn’t affect you?
Psychopathy, sometimes considered synonymous with sociopathy, is traditionally a personality disorder characterized by persistent antisocial behavior, impaired empathy and remorse, and bold, disinhibited, and egotistical traits.
You said more in one sentence than this guy managed to ramble in 7 whole minutes
so what caused these conditions
My "friend" got Sociopath on your quiz.
as someone with d.i.d. the sense of self isnt totally intergrated till about 5-7 not 3
I don't want people to suffer, I have no desire to hurt people in any way. But at the same time I don't like people, with the exception of my family and my girlfriend, and the suffering of others doesn't particularly concern me. Does that make me a psychopath?
I have diagnosed BPD and I’m not sure if I have ASPD as well, help?
do police officers ever get institutionalized for being psychotic or psychopathic when they abuse their power? seems like they just get told to 'go home' for a few days as a temporary suspension instead
Psychopath might think "hmm. Need to shut this guy up that doesn't understand me"
Great vid. We'll done.
Sherlock Holmes called himself a "high-functioning sociopath"
What if I care about my family members, but not about any other people?
Idea for the next video: Shark vs. Crocodile Test - The Differences
Pls, a lot of these things can describe other disorders too ;/
This dude started describing me now I’m scared.
Distinction without a difference.
Your "quiz" made no sense. I was trying to answer it for my self and the answers were not relevant to the questions answered, otherwise they made no sense even if it were answered in the context for which it would be for a friend.
Hey, look! The guy on the left looks like Brian Johnson of AC/DC.
What percentage of the population? How much of these traits are caused by "nature" vs. "nurture"?
So, most tv Psycopaths are actually sociopaths, due to the fact they tend to actually form bonds with others and have certain amount of feelings...
I'm thinking they are psychopathic sociopaths 🤔
Hannibal Lecter (Hannibal), Dexter Morgan (Dexter), Villanelle (Killing Eve), Eurus Holmes (Sherlock), Megan (Supernatural), Heisenberg (Breaking Bad), Karen (Will & Grace) and many other characters alike seem to fall into the psychopathic sociopath spectrum.
Psychopaths don't really form bonds they pretend to for there own personal gain. After they get what they want you will never see or hear from them again.
Your “link” broke my device thanks
Until he learns that they can just learn like a dog litter, when a dog bites another it yells or bites back saying hey back off. Therefore just avoiding the activities that make them standout.
Is there a possibility they may be both ?
Which one describes DJT?
Psychopath are charming
For the most part, these are informal terms that aren't used clinically any more. Which isn't to say that Psychiatrists don't use them, like "Crazy," but they've been replaced by a more comprehensive spectrum of Anti-social behavior. There was never really a consensus on what the differenceS (Plural) were, and they were used interchangeably. One patient may have been called a Sociopath by one doctor, and a Psychopath by another.
One of the problems with the Ambiguity is that a lot of people were mis-diagnosed by this "Poster Diagnosis" pop psychiatry. By unqualified semi-professionals, like school councilors. Being mis-diagnosed as ASPD (ADHD, Bipolar...) prevented me from being diagnosed as Schizotypal. Because they don't have a handy reference poster, and pamphlets for that.
