True psychopaths rarely worry or get concerned, so the fact that you’re worrying that you are one means you aren’t. If you were you wouldn’t care this much. (I’m not a professional, hopefully you have a therapist and if you do let them know about this concern.) But this definitely just sounds like pure OCD
@Gwumbo what if im the only psyhopath that worries about being one
@denidom yes i have a therapist and im going to tell her next week
@denidom This is definitely OCD my friend, your brain is coming up with any excuse to prove your fears right, “a psychopath that worries that they’re a psychopath” is an oxymoron. Those two descriptions scientifically contradict one another. I’m glad to hear you have a therapist, for now, please try some mindfulness activities and I wish you the best.
lol I don’t mean to laugh because I struggle with this as well, but it’s actually so silly reading it from someone else. Like if I was with you right now I’d tell you how silly you sound and not to worry! Try to think how you would react if someone you loved came to you with this thought? What would you say. We have so much empathy and understanding for others at times and hardly any for ourselves
my thoughts are screaming at me telling me that i dont want my relationship anymore and that i realized i lost feelings. i have a beautiful relationship of two years with a beautiful boy that loves me dearly and i deal with this thoughs for a year and a half. Im so scared it feels so real im scared i have changed and my last therapy session made it worse she basically told me i have to realise the thoughts are true and stop lying to myself. And made me think i am so scared and heartbroken bc i put high expectations on myslef to be with my boyfriend for all my life. Maybe i dont want to hurt him??? im always questioning my feelings for him 24/7 for over a year. I wm tierd
TW: SEWERSLIDE WARNING I’m scared to continue living because I don’t want the worst to happen. The worst being me discovering I’m a sociopath, pedophile, ephebophile etc… I have people I don’t want to disappoint. I keep looking for an excuse/something wrong with me so that I can decide whether I want to continue living or just end my life and save myself from the embarrassment of my loved ones finding out. At the same time I’m afraid to die. I feel like I’m not making a lot of progress in therapy. The only thing keeping me going right now is the thought that maybe one day I will find out that I’m not a creep, a sociopath &/or an ephebophile. At the same time living everyday is hard with all this looming over me. Some days I feel like I can continue no &’s ifs or buts. Other days I feel like im my own cheerleader & i am actually this bad person i think i am. I am so confused. Yesterday this thing came up where i suddenly find myself thinking a 17 yr old actor is attractive mind you im 21 yrs old.. idk if this is arousal nonconcordance or what it is honestly..I’m just afraid that it says something about who I am.. maybe that’s why I like guys my age with smaller bodies because it reminds me of a younger person??? Idk
so like i was like researching spirituality and i saw that when spiritual awakening happens you kind of question yourself and your values then i saw a shadow work video and they said if you judge someone its because somewhere deep down youre like them , so im scared what if im a pedo and someone did a tarot reading on me once and i dont really remember the exact words but they mentioned something about how im avoiding the truth or something like that and the first thing that came to my mind was being a pedo and incest and recently ive been ignoring all the thoughts cause i was exhausted from doing so many compulsions then i got scared that if i go to therapy they will just tell me what i want to hear. im so scared
