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

@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

developing fear of being a narcissist?
recently ive been worrying that im ''secretly'' a narcissist and that im accidentally hurting all of my friends. it really doesnt help that i do relate a bit to some narcisstic traits like having an unstable ego/''needing'' validation, although i suspect it comes from a different source for me (like OCD, maybe?). it also hurts because ive been trying to understand more stigmatized disorders like NPD more and learning more about them so that i don't add to the demonization, but i feel like doing so has also instilled the fear into me that im accidentally harming people i care about or that im not actually a ''good person'' like how i like to think of myself

Feeling bad
I feel like a lot of my fears are actually just centered around what other people think of me because I'm scared of being abandoned and no one loving me anymore. I don't actually feel like my fears are about being a good person. And then when I have this thought it makes me feel even worse because many people here genuinely seem to be scared of being a bad person. I feel like an actual bad person who's more concerned with appearances than anything else :(. I keep having these thoughts like what kind of person am I when I'm alone and with my thoughts. And then I get scared to be alone.
