How psychopaths think

I have a friend who I think is a psychopath. She acts like she really likes me very much like a sisterly love but she fits in most of the psychopath criteria. I want to know if she can actually feel anything for anyone or is it all an act? Will she care if a friend was upset or crying? will she worry for them? or anyone ? How does this work with them?

i think somebody who has sucide thoughts or tryed it is one somebody who also hurts other people is one IM NOT

I've read most of comments out here and I must say I'm pretty much like you. Of course, there are some differences - I believe I'm lucky to have no sadistic tendencies cause that would be a great bother to satisfy. I do enjoy BDSM and rape pr0n tho, but that's my limit. There are many more things, but I don't feel like writing them down.

Anyway... I want to mention one particular drawback of being a psychopath. I *can't* exactly be happy. Oh yeah, playing that game for hours or getting a praise/a reward/etc. feels good. Just a bit. It doesn't last longer than a couple of hours. then it's poof and I'm back to being my miserable self. I know that nothing will ever make me happy, be it a ferrari, a beautiful wife or overall and constant success.

I can compare my life to a game of poker. Because of my lack of guilt or emotions, I lay my cards just right. Still... a f*cker with better luck can and will win more. Either by my own skills or by cheating I win against that lucker. Win again... and go to play something else.

I'd like to know if any psychopath has ever felt satisfied, especially for a longer time. I haven't. I don't NEED anything, so I can't be satisfied as well I think. Kinda sucks knowing that others be satisfied and I can't.

PS. I would NEVER post here if not for anonymity. So you losers who say that psychopaths don't share anything, stop being stupid. The same as I could kill an annoying person and avoid punishment for sure, I can share my thoughts being someone from country you probably haven't even heard of. As long as people around me don't know I'm a psychopath, I could care less if the rest of the world knew. Besides, none of people I know would ever wonder here, and they wouldn't recognize me even if they read this post.

let me start by saying
I am not a psycho
i laugh, i cry, i show anger
tho i never remember why
i never hallucinate
and everyone talks to themselves
never out loud but constant conversation with myself
in ones own mind it would be hard not to
materialistic items somewhat please me
so i steal but only because otherwise i wouldn't have it
Money, cool pens, wristbands to gold, bracelets and earrings
whatever i like, i can never explain why i like it i just do
i like people
only certain people I'm very picky with any and everything
so why not with the people i associate myself with
i like how they act, how they dress, or speak
sometimes just how there hair looks or even because of what they remind me of
they sometimes don't like me
in fact most of the time they don't like me
but how can you not like someone you don't know
you see i never speak and when i do its not much
i just observe
i like to watch people interact with each other
or how a room came to look how it looks
where they bought the hand bag next to the night stand
or why the trash is on the night stand and not in the trash next to it
pondering always pondering things random things
non-stop conversation
it gets aggravating to the point where i just sleep to stop thinking so much
which is the only time i do feel at peace
just sleeping nothing else just black nothingness
no dreams no thoughts no people
but this is normal everyone thinks and not everyone dreams
and i have killed animals what child hasn't killed a rabbit or two
i was a child its what children do right
and every human wants
so manipulation comes natural to us all
over the years we learn to trick and deceive
you want toys from your parents so you cry in stores or throw a fit
you want snacks from granny you show her love and care
are those who just forget about this considered normal
and those who remember that we control our emotions
that we make ourselves this way in the situation to get what we want
considered psychopaths
or is it just that these individuals have a heighten sense of things
we love our family because were taught to love our family
we cry when someone dies because were taught to remorse
is a child raised completely oblivious to the fact of these things
considered a psychopath
could everyone be a psychopath
i know that i control my feelings because there my feelings
i judge them not events not you not anyone
just me
that doesn't make me a psychopath
I've thought about but never attempted to commit suicide
as a child me and my cousin and another neighborhood kid from around the way
all pretended to hand our self's not seriously just to be funny
one after another jay first, then my cousin, then me
a green rope tide to a branch above a green rusted bench
right outside in my great grand parents front yard
i was the tallest yet
wen it got to be my turn i slipped
i was dying i did not panic
why why panic that would only cause us to get caught
as i struggled to hold my breath
which for some reason does not help when your hanging believe me
tip toes slipping and sliding on the then railing of the bench
while they both looked on laughing
finally i got on the rail and got my self down
that school year a wore a new tattoo to elementary school
i never even took it into consideration that i survived
not even once
i just kept on living
as i did after i was molested
by my grandmothers friend who she let live with her at the time
honestly it wasn't really molestation giving the fact that i black mailed him
i was 7 but never did i think like a 7yr old
he would stick his tongue in my anal canal and in return i got gifts
expensive gifts, to a 7yr old
game boy, duck hunter, money, candy
do i hate myself for it no
am i a homosexual of course not
i have many girlfriends
i simply just over look it as if it doesn't matter
will i tell anyone
why so they can only further judge the quite boy they do not know
at least he had time to spend
my father never around
step father a douche
and mother
i was the oldest of four we all know how that goes now don't we
and of course i grew up in poverty but that is irrelevant
a recent poster said that psychopaths are born
are we all not born human and created into no forced into becoming a manipulator
a predator of the weak and ignorant
u see i used to live in Livingstone Heights
not very bad now but very bad then
average crack dealers uncle served 5-8yrs
armed robbery best friends shot and killed himself his wife and his newborn baby
his brother gunned down over a 10 dollar crack rock
grandfather served in Vietnam made it home
but it wasn't the war that killed him
it was himself that killed him
suicide
in a trailer at the bottom of my great grandmothers garden
right across from the very bench i almost died on
did i cry no i was to young to know him
see they can teach you to be emotional about a movie you've never watched
based on genre
comedy you laugh, horror tell of fear, action show excitement
but with humans its a little different
associate, friend, foe, or family
they cant teach you to cry for someone you never knew
so you don't
you almost don't care
but that doesn't make you a psychopath
you wouldn't smile for a complete stranger finding a million dollars would you
no
but you might if you wanted some if not all of it
i had childhood friends i did whatever to be accepted by them
stole from my family to buy them candy
set abandon houses and the woods on fire
i once road out on the city bus with a friend 9th grade
to steal some pokemon from Wal-mart
why not they were popular at the time
we got caught
i got beat by my parents and put on punishment for 4 months
no outside no tv no radio no toys no nothing school eat sleep
he told his father i put him up to it i was in the 5th grade
i saw him everyday that summer outside my window playing
did i care no
i got caught he didn't only taught me one thing
never get caught
those guys never did accept me never knew why
i know a lot of things tho i don't know even more
like why babies never like me
irrelevant but they never do
babies are more manipulative then any sociopath
they do whatever you want them to
just as long as your picking them up
or there getting a new fix on mamas tits
well i got news babies i don't like yous either
but not everyone is a baby lover
people have abortions daily surely there more insane then i
and i wouldn't have an abortion that's just not me
my cousin the one there while i was killing myself
his fiance is a psychopath tho
shes pregnant but you can tell
she has the phoniest laugh
she only begins to laugh when someone else starts
she often wakes up saying random things like someones trying to kill me
or speaking so fast no one can understand what she is saying
i seen her med's def. googled them shes taking some for mania and depression
if that wasn't a tell tell sign i don't know what is
not to mention i woke up once and caught her staring at me while i slept
she rushed to shut the door to the bathroom like i didn't know
but i knew
i seen the shadow of her on the wall from the bathroom light
she talks like a 3yr old literally not grammar wise but sound wise
it erks me so badly
i don't like her at all
and she gets my cousin to scratch her body in random places
as if she couldn't do it her self constantly with the fake attitude
desperately yearning for attention
i make smart remarks and undermine her ever single chance i get
i don't trust her
she's weak and futile
tho i do sleep with a 6in knife i call dundee
i don't trust anyone
but that doesn't make you a psychopath
there's people killing babies and rapping seniors
why should i trust anyone they probably don't trust me
but hey im just sayin....

i woul kill you all, idiots

You're no psychopath because psychopaths don't openly admit they're psychopaths.

Your whole rant is full of contradictions. The only wannabe I see is you.

For those that wittingly stumbled upon this message board, whom then went on to obviously falsified account of themselves, should not consider themselves the subject matter?

canot seem to relate to others.. theres like a lack of emotion or feeling twords people or even a common interest. thats a big thing.. i cant seem to find a goal or common interest with one another, making it impossible to have a real relationship. my mind picks up on things and does them. sometimes ill lose a part of myself, ill forget how to do a certain everyday activity then months later it will just come back to me same as for thoughts bad memories. i act helpless and stupid, dizzy cuz it enables me to manipulate ppl so i dnt have to take responsibility cuz i really insecure about my thinking, i feel very nieve and unintelligent altho i am intelligent.. im so good at manipulating ppl. i dont like this cuz i wna have friends and relate with people. another thing is i see out of my own perspective and its so hard for more then 10 seconds to see from someone else view and then i just continue with tunnel vision. and that authoritarian/grandois personality just shines through me.. its sick. i hear it while im speaking but the shit just goes out of my mouth

Reading this column has been interesting. Simply for the fact that the vast majority of its posters aren't true psychopaths. Sure some of you are and i can tell which ones are but most of you are wannabes and try-hards. True Psychopathy is not the desire to kill but the ability to. True psychopathy is not need to lie but the ability to do it convincingly. True Psychopaths do not get angry they get even. So all of you who brag about the violent acts they have committed are actually admiting they aren't psychopaths. A real psychopath wouldn't even tell a close friend about something they had done. But i do agree with some of the angry wannabes that those that get depressed and decide to "become psychopaths" for attention are stupid. A real psychopath can see through the bluff in less than the blink of an eye. I am personally glad to be a psychopath, i can tell when those around me are lying, i am immune to advertising and propaganda and i do not bend to external pressure. The world is a much clearer if bleaker place to a psychopath.

Let me also clear up a point that buggs me. A pychopath doesn't feel anything. Except maybe contentment or mild gratification at the success of a plan. Insults and compliments do not affect the true psychopath. Lets try a few examples a true psychopath when confronted with the news of the death of a loved one, their first thought will be how their grieving relatives will hinder and annoy you. Those of you trying so damn hard to be a psychopath have no idea how draining it is. Often after long periods of exposure to friends and relatives i have to sleep for half a day. Not because i am tired physically but because it takes effort to have to continually fake emotions.

To be a true psychopath is incredibly lonely because no-one is actually worthy of you. Sure you can keep in the practice of seducing/flirting but none of those you practice on is actually worth your time and effort. The only woman i have ever loved was another psychopath and as i expected she broke my heart. So lesson learned those that aren't worthy aren't worth it. And even those who are usually turn out badly. There is a price to superiority. Amazingly i actually know another true psychopath, he has become my best friend. We think so much alike we can almost read each other's thoughts. Despite the close friendship i will never stop watching his every move and he mine. That is what it is to be a true psychopath. You can't trust anyone completely.

If you are one of the superior species then you will know it. You will see through all deception and lies including bigs things like religion and propaganda. You will have the ability to control exactly what you feel and don't feel. If you are good at the deception you will be able to blend perfectly into society until the right moment. But asides from extremely tramatic events (and that doesn't mean your parnter broke up with you/ you tried to commit sucide) you can't become a psychopath. You are born to it. One last thing a true psychopath doesn't feel depressed, ever. It is weakness and useless unless you are using it to manipulate someone but that is a slippery slope.

Finally those that are true psychopaths have been given a gift. Not by god or any such glib construct but you just have a gift. How you choose to use it is your business. I have big plans in business. We and we alone can see the world as it truly is. We will never fall victim to scams or even charity grabs. We are superior to humanity "homo psychopathus". So to those true pychopaths use your gift wisely. And to those pretenders and wannabes, go home. Take a long look at yourself and guess again because you might have a personality disorder but you aren't one of the lucky chose few.

One of the chosen few

I have read so much on the internet and think I have the knowledge to self diagnose my 'condition' so to speak.

I am 37 years old, Male, and a very intelligent guy. I have always been like this, even as a child, and never once has anyone even remotely seamed like me.

When I was in school all I wanted was to be left alone. But the bullies saw this and I was chased and, if caught, beaten to a pulp by gangs of kids. My nose has no bone in it as a result. When I left school I never settled in any job long enough to make friends, and that was fine with me. I was 23 when I joined the armed forces. I went into the infantry and became the Battalion Sniper. When I left the army I kind of drifted through life pursuing my own whims and wants with no thought for others apart from what I can get out of them without looking like a sponger.

In all this time I have wanted people dead, beat people I didn't like, stole the odd thing that I wanted there and then, and lived off the kindness of others as much as I could.

I am scared of people, especially in any numbers (2 or more), males for the most part, who are strangers, and enjoy being on my own. In fact it is one of the two only phobias I have, the second is pain that could be inflicted upon me by others.

I have mood swings that are so severe that on a high I can easily ignore my phobias and do things that no mortal should ever consider (like facing off against more than 20 guys, and coming out of it without a scratch, armed only with a set of nuchaku). when I am on a downer all I want to do is kill myself and anyone who comes near me, but the fear of pain prevents me from doing anything.

As you can see I am a bit messed up and probably should be in a padded cell with a loverly white jacket on, being force fed sweeties that make you feel like you are on Jupiter or something.

Just thought I would share this with you all.

Psychopaths are widely misunderstood. Humans have a hard time understanding that there is more to life than humanity and their immediate surroundings. They fail to understand that most creatures absolutely NEED resort to these "primal" and "disturbing" techniques FOR survival. It's written in the very law of nature. Psychopaths know and live this. In fact Humans are so scared of losing their EGOS and being outside their COMFORT ZONES that they call people like this psychopathic. We're just victims of humans trying to imbue their social and cultural structures on us so much that we become desensitized and find ways to shove in other's faces how we really don't give a shit and we'll do whatever it takes to survive and do whatever it takes to get what we want. There's a really great line from Kino's Journey "Just because they're humans like me, doesn't mean I am obligated to help them".

Really, people who are scared of psychopaths are really scared of themselves! We're all animals in the inside, and we're no better than that low-down, poor grungy piece of shit "gangster" from the hood; They just know how to lie and deceive their way into their nice houses, and then claim they are the epitomy of morality and health. Isn't that what psychopathy is?? In fact maybe 19 our of 20 people are psychopathic, and the "psychopaths" are the ones with a grip on the true reality. Or maybe people should stop masturbating to Jesus and their new cars and to something they really love and get a life.

I'm a self-diagonosed psychopath. I'm a 16 year old and a female, even though female psychopaths are quite rare. Like most psychopaths, I'm a pathological liar. I lie a lot, sometimes very small lies, sometimes extremely complex. My prime goal when I lie is to not get caught, I focus on never slipping up. My family and friends find me quite trustworthy. And I say in company I hate liars, they know nothing. I'd consider myself to be intelligent, I have a fantastic memory, making lying very easy for me. I'd consider myself manipulative, sometimes I don't even realize I'm manipulating someone till I take a look back and say "wow, look what I did to get that". I don't care about feelings, I lie/manipulate, only about for my best interest, what I want, that's what is important.

There's a stereotype that psychopaths are killers, I DON'T WANT TO KILL ANYONE. No one is worth my possible time in jail. I do wish some people in my life were dead and I'm not going to lie, I wish they would self-end their lives or get a disease. Whatever to get out of my life. I am some what violent, only towards my brother though, he gets slapped sometimes, he's one of the people I wish would end his life. Yes, my own blood.

My parents both suffer from depression. I don't feel bad for them, I think their weak. When I was younger my father attempted suicide, I want him around to take care of my family, I don't want that job. My mother is kind, but a complete idiot, very ditzy. I wasn't abused as a child, I was spoiled. I've always been selfish, and even when I look back, I manipulated very young.

In school, I do well, 90's, I could do better, but I don't really have the attention span most times. I have friends, more like acquaintances. My 'best friend' is an intelligent girl, or so she thinks, I can tell by her behavior she thinks she's smarter than me. That's exactly how I like it, so she doesn't think I'm a threat, even though compared to me, her all honors ass is pretty much an idiot. She suffers from depression, she's attempted suicide, she's weak, just there so I don't look like a loner at school. I learn from talking to 'normal people', how to deal with other 'normal people'. I have admitted I am a psychopath to one person, I will never do that again, it resulted in her running away.

I want to be successful in life, I plan on being a lawyer.
Easy to excel there, I don't want to hurt anyone physically. I just want a big house with a BMW in the driveway, that's all I really want.

I've been searching the internet for quite a while today trying to get more of an idea of what I might be and how it might affect me. Unfortunately, so much about psychopaths is written from a victim standpoint or to educate people who have come in contact with them. It seems absurd and sensationalised. The thing about me is that I have been accused of manipulation from people who have been around me for long periods of time. I am able to see how things I do might be viewed that way even though I don't feel like I'm sitting down consciously manipulating people, though sometimes it is a bit more conscious. It is true that I do not feel remorse for anything bad I've done that may have hurt people but I don't really want to hurt people most of the time. I just want to get what I want. I feel like I am capable of empathy on some level, but only if I am thinking of myself in the situation. I am not thinking of the other person. I feel like I'm capable of love though I do not feel it often and even though my love may be interpreted as the love someone feels for a precious object. The reason why I have trouble really actually calling myself a psychopath is because I have a hard time comprehending how other people are not like me. Doesn't everyone do what I do to some extent? How does anyone truly feel remorse or truly do things for other people and not themselves? I'm not sure. To be honest, it's very confusing. My recent interest has come about due to my feeling that my tendencies might get out of control and affect me negatively. But I've been disappointed with what I've found on the internet so far. I know therapy won't help because I refuse to go. And the two times I did have to see a therapist, I convinced her I was normal and that I didn't need therapy. And she didn't realize anything. But I don't think this is something that is so easy to live with..I think it's confusing and difficult and it does affect me. And I am not a monster. I don't know what I am. I don't know what anyone else is. This is the truth.
Anyway, I want to just mention I'm not the only one in my family. In my extended family, there are lots of criminals but one relative in particular is definitely a psychopath from all accounts I've heard (the best example is how he's currently abusing and seeping money out of his elderly mother, he has also stolen from family members at reunions, and he tortured my father when he was a child). I'm not as extreme as this family member (and of course I have some doubts that I am a psychopath) but it's interesting how this may have a real biological cause. I was raised far away from my criminal relatives and didn't have much negative environmental influence but I am still, possibly, a psychopath.

I doubt that even a few people posting here are actual psychopaths. Even being the site is "Anonymous", Someone of such nature of psychopathy would not admit being one. Psychopaths live to manipulate, it'd be impossible for psychopaths to do so by admitting what they are. It's sort of like a child molester putting a sign in his yard letting everyone know he molest kids. It's just not logical for one to do so. Even those "true" psychopaths who have read the Hares list of symptoms for psychopathy and match up to them 100% would not admit to what they are. To those of you that are true... the only reason you posted here in the first place was to have a game to see how these other imposter's would react. Everyone lies, Even those who are not psychopath :). Labels are meaningless, You are what you are. A label isn't going to give you closure, It isn't going to make things in your life change. Want to survive? Learn to spectate, Learn act and look as normal as possible. Learn to mimic the emotions you don't have.

Is it not obvious that psychopaths DONT all share similar characteristics?? Is it not obvious that we all have DIFFERENT behavious from eachother. It makes me laugh when people try to learn how a psychopath thinks because we are all different from eachother just as all you norms are. To all you other psychopaths that think you have every one figured out, remember every psychopath thinks differently and may be better (more productive) than you. No matter who you are, what you are, and what you belive, we are all human. "The best WILL lead the rest." Notice how psychopaths run government, corperations, ect. Is this not enough proof? The smarter ones run the world. The stupid ones end up in jail. No diffrent from all you norms. Hate if you want. By the end of the day, we all know who is on top deep down inside. This has been happening since the begining of time and will always happen. Jump on the wagon or get ther fuck out of the way.

I've killed 5 cats, one of which was my own, all by strangulation. I guitlessly steal from family, and manipulate them for personal gratification. I frequently set fires, and to be honest, It turns me on. Despite my devious and distasteful behavior, I still don't believe myself to be psychopathic. =)

Sure we are destructive of society, but things are not going to change. Sometimes it makes me sad but most of the time I enjoy getting exactly what I want. I have spent life studying people, I know how this inferior race operates, I am amazed at nothing, I laugh when I hear people on the news have died, yet I would not kill anyone unless I could do it being sure Id get away with it and acctuallly get something usefull out of it, but the risk would be too great so Im not going to.

I was raised in a good family and I have lots of friends, most of the friends I have look up to me, they see me as courageous, fit and intelligent, I have to get into something impulsive or instantly rewarding because Im constantly sick of life and the people around me. I am sick of it because Its draining to act like you have emotions all the time, so I keep to myself most of the time. Im not facinated by emotions because they are counterproductive. Its nice to read other psychopaths thoughs on themselves, we are not alone, the solution for the fking boredom in life is simply get drunk, have sex, manipulate, become rich, become famous and so forth. This is what we have to do in order to survive, that is why we do. A psychopath is the result of genes and mind is the result of years of succesfull excess living, children of past kings, possibly genes of the great as I like to belive, sometimes the pain is too strong though, the pain of being different. With some psychopath friends, the world would be mine and ours.

so i was thinking.
im not wreckless.
im occasionally feared.
which amuses me i wouldnt say im a psychopath because i have an ability to feel.
less then others but its still there. im called a psycho at school because of the things i find amusing and how i think. i argue my point and as im only young
want to learn more about the art of manipulation.
i believe its an art that has to be learned, used wisely. not carelessly.
im only 14.
i dont usually feel guilt.
only a dissappointment within myself at the fact i got caught on that occasion.
excuse my spelling errors if there are any.
i have a good life. i know who to use and who are.. tricky to get around.
if you recommend any self-help manipulation books.
i would like to know the title.
im ok at manipulation but i need to improve my abilities are lacking
and people are starting to irritate me.

i feel ill
im a bit up and down up and down
are you my friend?
sort it out
in the navy
dark paranoia
you defaced my safe
if you was to punch me, id be k.o,d and then id have a little sleep

umm some comments here are not the comments of psychopaths as much as you ay wish it

By the way, i think it's funny how there might be other real psychopaths coming over this page and reading comments from other psychopaths. It's like you're an alien talking to each other. And the *humans* can't join in. Hah, fuckers. Also one thing i missed out in my first comment was that, i had and have a good childhood. I wasn't abused, i have a good dad and a good mum, even though she's a fucking annoyance. I came to live with my dad the same reason he divorced from her! Funny shit. The dad is alright. I could trust him with most things, but i won't.
The only thing that sort of worries me, and possibly the worst side-effect of being a psychopath, is the 'inability to care for the future'. Or not following long term plans. Because i don't try hard at school or college (i do the bare minimum, that's the only reason i got into college) i doubt i'm going to have a fan-fucking-tasical job, but it's ok, i don't want to work in an office or a business of some sort. I was actually thinking of simply joining the Royal Army (yes i'm British. South-England, if you want to talk to your local psychopath, i'm your man. Hah. I wonder what it's like for the others though.). I just don't know what i'd like to do as a job. Don't care. The army is good enough frankly, and no it's not because i want to have the chance to legally kill someone, although that would be pretty good (you're probably disgusted or something like that if you're not crazy or a psychopath right now. But seriously, i wouldn't mind at all. I think i have the perfect mentality to kill someone. I probably will end up doing just that when i'm a older. Sigh, i'm fucked up aren't I? Lol.)

Anyway, it was quite fun, writing all this. Dunno why. I think i might write a diary for the rest of my life ( No i'm not gay. Lol, a gay psychopath. By the way, if you're wondering why i put so many sentences in brackets, it's basically, or mostly what i'm thinking at the time). It might help me get by! But i'd have to keep it safe though, don't want any fucker reading everything about what i probably will end up doing in the not too soon, not too distant future. Yeah, this has helped me, i feel better about this stuff. And i dunno, maybe you enjoyed it too. See you! (Hah, what a fitting line.)

Since this is an anonymous site, i feel i can release my confusion and my thoughts. I'm only 16, and i (apparently) am a psychopath! That is, if the symptons that are put on the internet (well, not all, some you can tell is just made up bullshit) are true, then i must be a psychopath. I've felt *wierd* for a while, like i'm different from anybody else. When i say that i don't mean i'm a reject at school/college. I'm liked, i pretend to be happy and an easy going guy and i deliberatly make people laugh. If i was to simply do what i like where i wanted, i'd stand out, it would be known that i'm different. I know i can't tell my family, i've thought about saying something to my dad but i had a dream only a few weeks back where i told my sister i was a psychopath and she jumped out our eighth floor flat (it has a balcony), she landed on a car and survived but when was curled up like a ball and i could hear her crying. Then some people ran over to her and started talking to her, the people looked up at me, looking out the balcony and one of them pointed at me. At that moment i felt like i was caught, like i did something really bad. I felt like i was going to die or go to jail, something like that. I don't know if that dream was meant to be a message to me, but i took it as a message, and i'm not going to tell ANYONE that i'm a psychopath.

I'm not surprised that i'm a psychopath, i actually feel good about it. But what i don't know is why i am a psychopath. I mean, i check a lot of the boxes for psychopathy. When i've been reading about symptons and stuff i feel like i'm reading a book about myself. Things in the past: setting fire to things like paper, and small toys (i don't know why). Sexual activity (before the age 13, like symptons say). I used to lie ALL THE TIME, and i still fucking do, hah. And i'm a good liar too! I think things through before i say them, i think of my options to choose from (in terms of lying) and think of the outcome and what the other person or persons might reply. Anyway, i used to steal money from my family (when i was like, 5), and when my sister noticed one time she told my parents that she was missing some money. Somehow they caught on it was me and made me give her money back. I didn't actually feel any guilt, just regret. Because i took more than i should have which is probably how she found out! I am the most irresponsible person i know, and i don't really care. I never used to do homework, i always rely on others to do things for me and i can't be trusted with most things. Apart from secrets, i'm very good at keeping others' secrets, i don't know why, maybe it's because i know what it would be like if my secret was no more a secret. Plus it keeps a bond between you and the person, they won't do anything to harm you if you know their secrets. Although i'm not trusted much by my family who know me best, but only in a "Awwwwghh he won't remember to do that!" way, not in a "NO! He'll do the exact opposite!" way. Which is good, it keeps them from pestering me (i'm very irratible and hate people asking me questions, when i get pissed of at my family asking me questions i just say sorry, and blame it on my hormones. Works all the time!). But it also doesn't make me seem deliberetly menacing.

I'll put the rest of it in short: I used to abuse the family cat, I am charming (people like me, eh? I make people laugh and stuff, but i'm never the one to start a conversation with anyone, unless there is a reason. I just end up lying a lot xD but they believe me and all is good). I think i'm pretty full of myself, BUT i don't show it. Nobody likes someone who's stuck up. I lie a lot, as i've said before. I have 'shallow emotions', although i have cried before obviously but not much really. And only in times of deep stress. When my soon-to-be step dad died i didn't cry but i felt a bit sorry for him. But it was his fault, and he had it comin'. I'm quite impulsive i think, which is another symptom.

Anyway, yeah there are many other symptons which i hit right on the head. A better question is 'What symptons don't you have?'. Even then, the only reason is because i'm only 16. Damn, this is a lot of writing. You're amazing if anyone is still reading this. Yeah i'm only 16 so it's not exactly smart for me to attempt a serious crime. I don't even know why i'm writing this anymore, i'm gonna post it.

The problem is that there are too many closed minded people in the world,
thats why us who are superior are hung out and seen as "not normal", "mean" etc.
Then again, if there was no "dead meat" running around i guess there would be a complete chaos.

It makes sense to this path...

Any fellow Paths (forgive me for coining and using a term) out there drawn to Buddhism?

[p.s. I love hearing from my fellow Paths it is refreshing to hear from others who have to wade through the bull of the norms dinky emotional insanity]

First off, it is so f*king refreshing to hear from fellow Paths. (Forgive me if I coin that term).

All you "normal" people would do well to keep electing us to office, working for us, paying us insane amounts to watch us play ball or play music, and just be thankful you're not one of us.

We are, it turns out, the master class, the alpha dogs, and that's the sad truth.

Jesus, king psychopath, came out and banded a ton of you fools together before he was killed (Kurt Cobain comes to mind).

But I digress.

Any other Paths feel drawn to buddhism?

Look, you normal emotional people, you can not stop us -- most of us are way to smart to actually break the law to the extent that we end up in jail.

Basically a stupid normal person ends up poor and unhappy, whereas a stupid path could get into legal trouble and jail -- drug addiction can make anyone into a path temporarily in order to get your fix (just like extreme circumstances -- see germans during the holocaust).

Anyhow, once again, any paths out there feel drawn to buddhism?

when you don't get the respect you deserve, and the disrespect continues and you know your being manipulated.. what do you do????

I red almost of the comments that have been written here.
I think that psychopath are further more organized and irrevelent than that.
they don't want you to know what they think and what they know.
they just don't want you to get in theire way.
all psychopath are able to get what they want when they want with fewer help than anybody else beacause they just don't care about being happy or sad. they will oftenly steal insult kill rape just because theyre bored. psycopath simply have a lack of interest in life. they see themself as animals in entire part. they don't make the difference between eating a beef steak or a human eye ball (beyond the taste for sure ! ) they don't see the point of wishing luck and giving hope to others when they don't hope for themself theire own luck. psychopath just feel like dying every minuts of theire existance and that is why when they kill they feel more alive.

Psychopath or whatever it really doesnt matter.... such worthless labels mean nothing humanity disgusts me it really does. The worst race to have ever existed, i dont wish to kill or greed for power or money like most worthless "psychopaths" do. I am me that is all simple really unless ur idiotic mind can not comprehend. I believe everything is decided by willpower. I will make a change to this world as everything can be altered. Live only for ur own interest, it isnt wrong to care for others or do what is right or even do what is wrong only do as ur mind and heart lead u to do. Death,life,poor,rich,happy,sad all of these worthless subjects matter not.

opinions shouldnt matter i dont even know why the fuck im typing this shit, maybe i am a psycho LOL but really it doesnt matter u r what u r. True beings stay true to themselves.

Alright, here's the thing. I've always been interested in psychology, which is why I've considered whether or not I'm a psychopath. I do have a sense of right and wrong, but wrong is basically anything that gets me in trouble, and right is things that don't. I do things without thinking at all, and regret it afterwards because I get punished, not because I'm sorry. I really hope I'm not a psychopath because it will make my life very difficult, but I have wondered. I guess it will just take time to find out.

Thing is, Psychopaths are not free.

They have impulses which they cant control because they dont see any reason.

There is the primary psychopath and the secondary psychopath. The secondary one, Is maybe the more anxious one.

Sociopath is related more to those who have become emotionally poor through childhood traumas or consistant abuse etc from a very early age.

I appreciate most of you see psychopathy as glamourous and are drawn to it in order not to feel threatened by it, but you must consider that Psychopathic disorder usually container or carries many other personality disorders.

Also, consider the enviroment and its effect that the psychopath grew up in.

Its not freedom, by saying that, you assume normal peoples life is too burdened, or maybe your own life is too burdened for comfort.

Malignant Narcissism is close to psychopathy, all psychopaths are malignant Narcissit, not always the other way around.

MNPD can be extremely painful, and pressurised and cannot be cured. It entails anti social behaviour, schizoid behaviour and Narcissism.

If any of you guys were psychopaths, nearly all of you, wouldnt believe you were one. You wouldnt even consider the views of others who post here. You would be more anti social than that.

I am a soMThing.

I could care less bout anything in life except for money and control. dont care bout nobody. feel nothing when I do something that someone else would consider wrong. Sold crack for 8 years, went to jail twice for it and I have absolutely no regrets in life. Its all bout what I want and I will lie, cheat, steal, manipulate, and fuck anyone and anything over to get what I want. I have went through so many freinds if thats what you want to call them because I manipulated and stole large sums of money from them. They mean nothing to me but money.

There are no more barriers to cross. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it I have now surpassed. My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone, in fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape, but even after admitting this there is no catharsis, my punishment continues to elude me and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself; no new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This confession has meant nothing.

I believe I am a psychopath. If not that, then I certainly have a personality disorder. I'm techniquely ADD and have chronic depression issues. The funny thing is I feel horrible about what I've done in the past when I'm medicated - but once it wears off, I could care less.
I've killed 3 birds before - I drowned them when I was a child/preteen. I hurt my poor pets that lived in my parents house, and almost strangled my cat. She tore up my hands with her claws and I hardly felt it.
I steal from people I don't know - but never friends. It's been a painful process, but as I continue to take meds I learn at least I will regret my mistake later.
The problem is - I care in general. I'm writing this because I fear for other people around me, whom I don't want to hurt.
I'm the kind of person who throws the worms into the grass on rainy days, and saves the mouse from the sticky mouse trap.
Life would be indiffinitly easier if I had only one person inside of me.

Think what you wish to think how ever the disorder can only be diagnosed +18.
It is normal for people to have rage/anger and even being cold blooded, how ever does not make you a psychopath.
Psychopathes come in different flavors, child hood and other disorders play a key roll in how they will be formed.

Being rude/manipulative or even a murderer does not make you a psychopath, neither is every psychopath any of this.
How ever certain behavior is very common for pyschopathes, as they also lack on certain things.

For some people what do psyopathes do and what they do not.

1: Their life always has some taint of violence in it, when they swap their mood.
One of the big trades psychopathes have is the hurting of animals at a young age.
A personal example: I lit rabbits on fire,poisoned mice and shocked rats to death when I was 5 to 8.
Not out of fun, just a urge.
I never felt ashamed or guilty about it how ever I do realize this behavior was not proper.

2: Non of them can really attach themself to some one, and even if they managed they end up harming the person since their loyality is never that much.
People with this disorder can only chose for them self in the end.
You cannot get this out of a psychopath.

3: all of them have to deal with urges, often these urges are a bit dark of nature.
Not dark for the pschopath but for others, they would hardly see their action as something wrong.
Simply because they do not have a build in right or wrong.
And even if they make one in their mind they still lack on it feeling wise, it is impossible.
This is a important part of the diagnose.

Might add some more later but atm just bored writing.

yeah this is all interesting I guess???
but yea alot of these psychopaths, on here r funny.(well not funny but its the only word I feel like thinking of)
Its funny cuz I can see thru to wat they're thinking and why they write what they write. But the fact is that theyre delusional tho.
Theyre blinded by fantasies made in their head kind of. Its kinda hard to explain tho, or its just it'll take too long
but yea your all too over confident, u all think ur way superior to everyone else, but its cool cuz I understand exactly why. I kno ur smart blah blah yea but yea it seems as if ur kinda putting on a little. Just by tha things u say like one of the first guys "I have No emotion I just want to kill u blah blah" its like okay we get it tv show super villain
So on but yeah I kno how yall r thinking n ur just trying to kid ur selves and others. Ive experienced that phase n all but yea thank god I never actually embarressed myself by sounding so stupid and ignorant to other people
I REALLY wanna explain myself more but like I said that wuld take too long :/
but the point is I feel SO superior to u (guy) nd alot of people lol but yea I guess that too is just the nature of our kind...
yea I'm a psychopath too
But not like theses others r
I DO have emotions definately and I understand them very well and I actually have a very strong empathy sense
I kno how people think and feel and act and will act
I think its really stupid how these people r really tryin to say that emotions r useless and stupid and bad its like Wtf?! R u serious?
ur making us look bad cuz yea ur just proving wut people already think that were just evil crazy delusional freaks haha
not that that's completely not true.. But yea its just emberessing

Anyways I guess maybe I should tell u a little about myself. I'm a male and Just turned 15 this month
yea I always new I waz alot smarter than others. I feel like I have a "higher awareness" or whatever than others but it wasnt til recently that I realized I fit the descriptions of a psychopath.
And yea there is that evil thing inside me that gets SO raged and wants to kill.. Lol but dont worry. I'm not even like a bad person tho I can just want to help I wit ur problems and heal u using my "gifts" or I could want to use them to hurt u n crush ur mind... Ugh I feel like that one guy now but yea its just easier..
but yea Im not a crazy killer, be I would actually rather whatever victim I may have suffer emotionally and mentally
that really is y a psychopath with empathy is that dangerous
Im basically like a living paradox or oxy moron
I can be just the opposite of empathy and surpress my emotions
I am manipulative

I'd really like to explain more and give some more insight. I havnt done nearly as good a job as I would want but just no time but just wanted to put in my two cents. Maybe I'll come bak be write mor but until then I'll talk to yall later ..

-idk wat I shuld be called.. JX for now

Ps. O yea I thought that "cute as a button" lady waz kinda cool tho =)
so yea not exactly hatin on u

All psychopaths that are not being controlled by their impulses can manage to life fine in a sociaty.
Guilty/pitty/remorse is something I do not have, no matter what I do.
I can show the emotion but it is just to get something.
The only regret I know is when I get caught, I regret being caught.

Your emtions simply intrigue me, angger/sadness all these things I find interesting.
I can taste the emotion but I do not understand it much.
'How can you stay sad for more then 30 min?' that is me.
I am able to act like you since I simply learn from people and use it.
If you cry I might try to confort you so you will act normal, if it does not work I simply get flushed.
Bloodthirst is a good word it, how ever imagine it cold.

Your anger is a ventilation of an emotion, you show you are not pleased or just nag people.
If I get irritated I simply want to kill you, there is no middle way or anything less that would do.
When some one irriatates me I eye calm, though inside i need to restrain myself.

If I followed my impulses I doubt neither me or the people that where on my way would gain much in the end.
They will be dead I will be jailed with the same urge that is basiclly a bottemless pit.
This also goes for manipulating and hurting people mentaly, I have no satisfaction Limit.
I do this because it is my nature to do so.

Now I sound quite sick,the amusing part is I am a very nice guy.
I look good ,I am friendly and most of the time I know how to get you to laugh.
I got a girlfriend though I doubt I can keep something like a relationship.
my loyality reaches as far as my benefit.

Basiclly I rush trough life controlling my urges and my nature, if I manage it or not is the question.
If I do I keep my freedom and life.

Hearing in church that the devil promises to give you everything you desire if you sell your soul, my sister announced that same day that she had already sold hers and that I should do the same. She even wrote out the contract for me to sign in my own blood.When I refused she got furious and yelled "what's the matter with you. Do you think your a ****ing saint!" She will do whatever she wants and take whatever she wants without the slightest fear of guilt or punishment. If she is found out she will deny, lie or rage saying whatever it takes, no matter how outrageous, to get the acuser to back down. She told me she was an alien because she didn't feel like the rest of us. That she must be adopted because she didn't feel any love. That she was a witch who was going to destroy me. She is manipulative,cruel and vindictive.Instead of a heart she has a gaping pit of greed, arrogance and hatred. Freedom or slavery?

your all givin youselfs away. seems ymost of ya like expressing the feelings you think you dont have. its ok i guess it is fun trying to think like one

I'd rather have all the qualities of a psychopath and empathy, and I do, I'm more dangerous than any of these so-called cold hearted psychopaths, a serial killer is predictable, a person who can willingly manipulate and deceive for their own or another's benefit and empathize all the while is far more dangerous and unpredictable than a psychopath no matter how skilled at cold reading or clever at machination; I'll leave you hollow men and women to realize the why and the how of it...oh yeah, and these labels, you're trusting the words thrown around with so many loaded meanings and questionable agendas of a pseudoscience barely in its infancy? I implore you to check how many of the criterion are so broad as to render them similar to the bland categorizations of horoscopes or so untenable as ideas that they are unfalsifiable, and thus unreliable as indicators of anything more than FUD for the purposes of increasing revenue and appearing tough on "crime"

anyway what kind of freedom do you have if you cannot choose to feel what others do when you want to?
