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
Been really worried about this lately. Having a huge identity crisis and worried that i’m just a shell and what if I just take the identities of people around me? I’m scared
I feel really bad right now.And really scared.I am scared I am a horrible person.Like I wnjoy horrible things.I am scared is getting really bad again
I have this fear of being a psychopath or sociopath. All my life i was able to feel normal emotions like joy, sadness, guilt etc up until now where i suddenly gained this new fear of being a psychopath because i felt emotionally detached from my partner lately and i now feel like i emotionally shut down and like im on autopilot mode. Its like i cant feel anything right now, and to test myself i think of situations in my head that are bad (like someone getting hit by a car) to see if i feel any empathy and it scares me that i sometimes dont. I keep doing this over and over and i cant feel anything, im so scared of being evil or something. It triggers me when i see negative things on social media because im scared i don’t feel anything or not care about it at all. I never thought id be saying this but i WANT to feel sad or upset just so i know im not crazy.
