What makes a psychopath a psychopath?

seriously. i have read all of the nonsense literary salad of analysis on why someone goes crazy. but i want to know your opinion.
the first 4 years of my life, i was Appalachian, then i was moved to Cincy. Cincy....where hopefully no one knows your name....where if you didn't belong to some cult and behave like a gang member, you were the outcast.

the family that raised me were drunks druggies perverts and murderers and so were all their friends and relatives. and all the kids i went to school with. and i was ostracized. i never did drugs, my drinking was laughable, and i smoked because being in a smoky room drove me nuts unless i was smoking. i didn't sleep around.

i was nice nice nice....and all people did was attack me and lie about me. Why do i have no wish to murder and destroy people?

Why was i never a pervert or weirdo? i don't even cut or steal....am i not human?

See...these are the things we need to understand to keep these school shootings from happening.... what is it that makes the difference?

The inability to empathize with other peoples emotions, An inability to experience some emotions..

@Adstar but why? what is the difference between me and all the psychos i have met?

Adstar · 56-60, M

@LILY61 I don't know you so i cannot say..

Why? I believe the current theory is psychos are born that way.. Their brains seem to lack a critical function.. Just like kids who are born with all kinds of genetic malformations.. Actually many psychos think their condition makes them Superior to normal emotional human beings..

@Adstar i don't know if i believe that they think they are superior. i always thought they were insecure and pretend to be arrogant like athletes and movie stars.

but i like your thoughts about being born with a condition...interesting. maybe it is like cancer. a propensity for being psychotic but if you are raised well then it may fall to the waist side

@LILY61 Here let me look for a video i once saw on utube where a psycopath did a good job of explaining himself.. I will reply again if i find it..

Adstar · 56-60, M

Found it.. This guy is talking about His mental journey from Atheism to belief.. But he also does a great job describing his mental condition.. So don't be put off if you are not interested in religion and atheism.. You will get a lot of insights into the way psycopaths think from His story..

@Adstar this guy looks very familiar. i think it is an actor and this is a script. even a psychopath wouldn't discuss murdering his father for no reason in public while being recorded. and he doesn't speak like he is real. he is selling something

Adstar · 56-60, M

@LILY61 Watch it to the end.. He is a psycopath and he did do prison time for his attempted murder on His dad.. Thats why he can publicaly talk about it.. In any case he keeps revealing more about his mental state..

LILY61

@Adstar he scared me so i skipped to the end and he is weird...even if this is fake. all of those videos of his seem scripted and too weird to be real. if he is this far out then why would he ever get out of prison.

Adstar · 56-60, M

@LILY61 Why be scared of someone who cannot jump out of the screen and ever hurt you? He did not end up remaining as the violent person he was. He became a follower of Jesus and that turned Him away from being violent and self destructive, so there is no need to have any fear because of him.. The video is a great one and i hope you change your mind and watch the rest of it.. In any case all the best to you in the future..

LILY61

@Adstar i fear that others who are too young or mentally unstable will watch it and think that means that if they take a hammer to their father that they too can come out of it free and okay if they claim that they have found Jesus. this guy , if he is for real, is out of his mind...and always will be. if this is fake and he is just trying to make phoney videos than he shouldn't be allowed to do it any more because he is still somewhat a nut job

Adstar · 56-60, M

@LILY61

Well in the video He revels how He suffered imprisonment and other suffering because of His twisted volence and mental state.. And that's why i would say to anyone who watches the video to watch it till the end.. Also He has to live with the knowledge that His dad suffers mental damage because of what he did.. Can you imagine what it must be like to have that on your shoulders for the rest of your life..

this guy , if he is for real, is out of his mind...and always will be.

But it also shows that even the most mentally scared people can still lead a controlled life in this world.. If you take the position that psychos are forever violent and dangerous and that they have no hope and society has no hope because they exist then that is a far darker and more frightening position to believe..

His video is real because he is a ""nut Job"" a now self controlled ""nut Job"" thanks to the LORD Jesus..

You should look upon his like any other person with development problems that can be counciled or treated with medicines to control their condition..

LILY61

@Adstar he doesn't go through anything....this is all malarkey or he is a psychopath which means he feels nothing.
and if i had known you were a Jesus freak i wouldn't have started this with you.

God's don't have children with mortals... there are no gods. Jesus was strung up with the others and then they were removed from the crosses and alot of them lived including Jesus. and Jesus was not his name . it was the group. he was taken care of the three days in question and then got up and was seen wandering around. then he went off with his wife, Mary and they had kids and a life... the end

Adstar · 56-60, M

@LILY61 Ok so now i know something else was going on with you.. Your rejection of God is the reason you cannot continue to watch the video and it has nothing to do with the guy being a psycopath..

LILY61

@Adstar i hate the way psychotic whack jobs suddenly find God and Jesus and think they know everything. if you knew the truth, it would break your brain completely. that guy should never have been let out unless he was on drugs at the time and then when let out had to do drug testing every month forever.

he talks about it like he punched a stranger over a fight.
