****** A few years ago, I found myself working closely with a colleague who exhibited some perplexing behaviors. They were always charming, and they were always able to use situations to their advantage. They lacked empathy or remorse and they used other people as pawns in their own game. Seeing them do things like gaslight a coworker and put the blame on others to avoid taking responsibility left me not only confused but also very worried about the people around them. It was scary to see how easily they took control of situations and hurt people's confidence and opinions. Their behavior showed me how someone with psychopathic or sociopathic traits could hurt someone emotionally or psychologically. This caused a lot of concern about how their actions would affect the overall health and mental health of the people they hurt or who were affected by them. It showed how important it is to understand the differences between the labels we put on people, and be able to spot this kind of behavior so that we can protect ourselves and make a safe place for people who might be vulnerable to being hurt or manipulated.

So today we're going to talk about the complicated difference between psychopathy and sociopathy. This topic might not seem like it has much to do with our everyday lives, but you'd be surprised how often it does. Psychopathy and sociopathy are two words that are often used interchangeably, but they mean different things about how people act and how they think. It's important to know these differences so we can stay safe and have better relationships.

A sociopath in the work place can ruin your career if they go after you.

[nothanks]

There really well made videos. Marginal Psychopaths and sociopaths should feel called out. I do .. I don’t feel paranoid or shamed about the label just informed. Imagine fuelling all this with alcohol while two people charm each other for physical stimulation than if by accident have children and continue the glorious cycle. There literally will never be any end to some of the evil in the world. Thank you for your work.

Thank you for the video. Concise and calming to listen to.
I was going to make a personal armchair comment regarding a couple politicians.
On second thought, better Not to comment about politics or religion.

Does all this happen because of toxic parenting or other reasons ??

The sad thing is that the mist beautiful trusting people are most at risk of being hert. That's why health scepticism will help oritect people to a degree. Let's renember how mesmerism works. And yes, psychopaths are glib. I like your choice of words : glib.

Medication can come from a psychiatrists prescription pad or a street dealers cadre. It is understood that street drugs are dangerous and to be avoided but the same can be said of improperly prescibed psychiatric medication due to things such as suicidal idiations, uncontroled outbursts of anger and a little soiken of but equally dangerous fornthe patient : spontaneous ejaculation, where if a person sees this police may be called upon and charges pressed wherein the patient now must go before a judge and have a lawer explane thenside affects and hope that the prosecutor and judge don't gi any further rhan the preluminary hearing.

I suppose this is my way of saying either way, the risks are equal in severity but vary in the manusia of their variety. I've seen psychotiic/sociopathic patients do better with amphetamines in very short duration, perhaps even limiting to one singular dose than a regimen of Seroquel®™ where their psychosis becomes exacerbated because it's got the properties of benzodiazépines hybridized with 1-4 thiazine which is a calcium blocker that causes a decreasesed, even debilitated digestive function in the uper gastric small intestine. This makes a constant barrage of false and illusory spectres of the mind that never decrease. The nore stable patients have nightmares night after night and the more unstable one can no longer distinguish between dream and reality and after all, isn't that why they're prescribed medicine?

One dose of LSD as prescribed by the Father of LSD Albert Hofmen at 1μg per kg of body weight : 80μg to 80kg. Then follow up with Valium (no other Benzodiazepine weaker such as Librium or any stronger such as Xanex®™, Adavan®™ or Klonopin®™.)

I have an ADD diagnosis. Can it be comorbid with ASPD/Socio-/Psychopathy?

[MarieJackson-spbe]

You describe sociopaths as harmless people.

[kkech]

The differences seem to me like characterizing an assertive vs. turbulent INTP.

[TheMrPEPSY]

so psychopaths are the human 2.0 :) or a better human, most of the psychopaths are very functional in society and control the live of many "normal" ppl and improve their life this way :)

[Tropicsca]

Youl know if you're a psychopath or not if you're looking at a dead body and laughing at it. The soulless glassy eyes.
