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!

does anyone else have this
i have such a fear of psychosis and schizophrenia, so i’m scared that i’m going to develop it and lose control over my OCD thoughts. If im very tired and my eyes get heavy i get so scared that im going to go crazy or that i have one or the other. and if i have a panic attack im convinced im going to develop it. does anyone have any tips on how to work though this? i saw a thing online that said people with these dont know the have it and that scared me into thinking i have it and dont know.

Remembering things from my childhood
(20f) I have been dealing with severe OCD symptoms for as long as I can remember. I recently got diagnosed about a year ago, and even though I know that these thoughts are probably my ocd, I still cant shake them. Growing up I was always very sexually curious. I was sheltered from a lot of things, as I went to a private school and things like sexuality and sex were never talked about. I remember doing some weird sexual things growing up (never affecting another person), looking up taboo sexual things, etc. I always seemed to become aroused no matter what the situation was, even if I just saw someone getting changed. I have no recollection of being SA'd, so i'm wondering where this all came from? Was I just curious and wanted to experiment and try different things? Or am I really a pervert, pedophile, etc. I have all these thoughts racing through my head and it's killing me. Everything I did as a kid I look back on and am disgusted, as those don't align with my views at all today. I never thought growing up thinking these things were wrong, or actually realize what they were until I got older. I'd like to think it was just my curiosity, but i'm not sure. What if i'm in denial and actually do like these things? I just need to know if theres something wrong w me, I cant keep going on like this. Could really use some advice.

fear of psy. and sci.
does anyone else have an intense fear of developing schizophrenia or psychosis. This has been a really heavy theme for me as well. I’m constantly checking to see if I have symptoms or if I’m gonna go crazy or develop these. it’s so scary.
