How Do Psychopaths Appear in Everyday Life?

This video, which was taken from the Psych Spiels and Silver Linings Podcast, discusses how to identify if someone may be a psychopath.

In Psych Spiels and Silver Linings, clinical psychologist Chris Mackey is joined by his son, Rowan as they discuss optimistic strategies for managing mental health and flourishing.

This Snippet is taken from episode 29, The Snakiness of Psychopaths, which discusses what a psychopath is, ways of spotting a psychopath and strategies for managing a relationship with someone we think may be psychotic.

At a pretty bad time in my life (living in my car) I met two women who seemed nice at first but ended up conning me out of money, stealing from me, and vandalizing my car. But they seemed really nice at first...

I always wondered what psychopats do when they don't have a goal
Do they just manipulate people for fun or what?

This is the most accurate description of a psychopath I've ever heard. And this perfectly describes me.. Finally I hear the right way of explaining this. It's such a relief to hear this in words by another person, it finally gives a clear perspective on how I am as a person. Feels good

Honesty this describes young 18-21 year old women. Disgusting to say the least.

Emotions are useless, connections are made. Get a mate. Spawn offspring. Move on.

Psycopathy is an evil, selfish existence.
