The Psychopathy Spectrum
Spectrum: Not what one might first think. Remove the stereotype assumption to find out there are covert disruptors and professionals on a spectrum. A certain percentage masks very well, only giving the lack of empathy away in certain situations.
How common do you think Psychopathy is? The little old lady on the corner of the street with bodies in the back garden is a suggestion in the same way the best surgeons must be good with knives, hint hint. Going beyond face value to find out what happens in the womb and is linked to people who are not comfortable with their height?
Meanwhile, outside the calculated stereotype, others may steal your car with little care and let the street know about it as they drive off. What is that all about?
Another may inflict a trauma bond over many years called ‘death by a thousand cuts, ’ the slow blame-shifting sadistic approach to serving one. The more covert, the harder to spot, so does that mean ‘self-awareness'? Why target people's self-esteem and baggage to manipulate on their behalf?
When something is missing, what do they want or seek?
What do they care about, you?
To fit in, they will look to the external for insight; what happens if you mirror a person who mirrors others? The truth will surface.
What does fear of exposure look like within a narcissist compared to a type 1 psychopath?
Many should look carefully at this subject just to know the truth of what is hiding in plain sight and being covered up for a number of reasons. If they are disruptive when wanting control, seek advice, the authorities, and professional help, as they may keep going without any concern for the unspoken subject of boundaries.
How many people who fall into this category know they have the traits?
Can psychopaths be empathic heroes who save people without a second thought because it is the right thing to do? Can they protect who they care about? Or does the cognitive bias override?
What is the opposite of manipulation, hurting others for stimulation, seeking unhealthy validation, draining people regardless, the professional victim card?
