Someone help

Don’t take my word for it, but I’m pretty certain psychopaths are incapable of being scared of being a psychopath. If you genuinely feel no remorse taking an animal’s life or inflicting pain, then you might have something to be concerned about, but those can be confusing criteria, and being apathetic can be caused by extreme trauma and mental illness, which does not condemn you, it just means you need help. Idk what ‘symptoms’ you refer to, but plenty of kids bully, even people I know who are now the kindest and most giving souls, used to enjoy hunting for sport and only reflected and felt guilt later in life. And choose to change and be kind. You are not a forgone conclusion, you get to choose what and who you care about, and if you choose to care and do the right thing, psychopathy is not something you need concern yourself with ever again.

From what I’ve read if your worried about being a psychopath then your probably not, they don’t worry about being one they just are I think. Seeking some help and talking to a professional about it could be a good option. I know OCD is a doubting disorder and can make you feel as if you are one or make you worry that you could be, just have to ignore ocd’s crappy ways.

Yup, I’ve heard the same thing - psychopaths don’t care if they’re a psychopath, because that’s the nature of it. So if you’re worried that you’re a psychopath, that’s a pretty good indicator that you’re not one!
