no because they're usually criminals and assholes

>How are they supposed to deal and get through the life?
Learn emotions.

What are the ways and tactics of productively dealing with society other than exploiting everyone until they figure out and tell you to fuck off?
Society is shit deserves nothing other than exploitation. What do you mean by productive?

>Is there a possible way to maintain productive long term relationships with people?
Learn emotions and take a liking to people. Find people that are so complex that you take multiple decades to figure them out. This will result in you keeping them around longer

>>8798806

The fact that "psychopaths" have almost no activity in their PFC or temporal lobes make a good argument for morality, what "psychopaths" are famous for lacking, simply being foresight with cost/benefit analysis. The more intelligent you are the more consequences of an action you can perceive the more efficient you are at choosing paths which avoid the most painful consequences. Psychopaths can't do this thus they always choose inefficient paths and suffer the worst consequences.

There aren't really any "therapy" styles to help with Anti-Social Personality Disorder. Mostly because "Psychopaths" don't usually see their mental state as a hindrance. As well when they are forced to take part in therapy they just adapt and play the role of what their therapist thinks is correct behavior; they're very well known for the ability to blend in and adapt.

I've read about 5 books on the subject after dealing with one in the family, there might even be another one, abusive families, genetics whatever. There is one I found, called The Wisdom of Psychopaths. I read that last I think and author had a father psychopath so maybe some denial of the damage they actually cause but they made some good points.

I think the world is turning out more psychopaths than ever for a lot of reasons, overpopulation and breakdown of the hunter gatherer tribal thing probably being the biggest. If your tribe is 100 people or whatever they are detected and maybe dealt with quickly, no chance of that today, they are also very charismatic and often very social when they have to be. The latest term anti-social personality disorder is just a misnomer, like everything modern they bury shit with more and more words, like "post traumatic stress disorder". You might deal with some of that if you have a long term relationship with a psychopath. It's almost an advantage to be one today which bodes badly for the future me thinks.

Psychopaths aren't people so why does it matter?

>>8798806
Psychopathy is treated as a pathology because, like any pathology, it is something which is judged harmful. There is no sympathy to be had towards manipulative and evil people, be it caused by a neurological condition or not. Psychopathy, like cancer, is a disease we must expunge from mankind.

>>8798806
There ARE psychopaths who live reasonably normal, crime-free lives. They often take up pursuits such as dentistry, or being doctors, and it's suggested that they use their lack of emotional range to their advantage in these jobs.

i've never really understood why psychopaths are assumed to be aggressive or violent or whatever.


if you dont have morals wouldn't you just do whatever made you feel best? then if people are getting in your way you might lash out or you could just figure a better way to hide it

>>8799576
Medicine and dentistry are full of scams. Coincidence?

>>8799598
Pretty much all major organisations and companies are full of scams and deception. No particular reason to blame the psychopaths, that's just a problem with society in general.

>>8798806
>Is there anything at all FOR psychopaths?
They are literally the one kind of people that shouldn't be helped at all. As they can't be emphatic, they can do anything to get what they want and that cannot be changed. The world is a lot better for non-ASPD people if psychopaths didn't exist. They are about as close as we can get from pure evil (they aren't purely evil because they don't do evil all the time, but there is literally nothing that can stop them from doing so).

>>8799621
>Implying emotions are the only thing that stops 'evil'
There are plenty of people with ASPD who have contributed positively to society, and helped far more people than thry have upset. Also, comparing people with a personality disorder to 'pure evil' is pretty close-minded, is it not?

>>8799621
Murdering psychopaths are not the only kind of psychopaths.

But for the sake of the argument less assume they are, even then they are capable of great things, but the cost as society it's just to high.

What do I care? They´re genetic waste. There are some (!) high-functioning psychopaths (i.e., narcisstic-asocial DP-havers) that found a way, but I guess they just had luck.

Autism is just what happens when there isn't enough pruning the brain growth during very early childhood, there is nothing that is "partly destroyed". I guess you could say that about Schizophrenia because they have less grey matter yet even Schizophrenics and Bipolar people have more dopaminergic receptors which is what causes there illness and other things.

Also, there hasn't been a single example of someone with ASPD in this thread. Very disappointing, especially with all the misdiagnosis going on nowadays.

Psychopaths are the cold, calculating purely rational god king caste of humanity.

Are you le fucking kidding me? You *do* know that very few psychopaths actually realize that they have aspd, right? Like, because they´re narcissists and if you have that you can´t accept being sick. Some, I repeat, some aspd-guys can realize it, but most of them just have a vague idea that their behaviour is odd but don´t give a shit about it. Source: I actually read a whole book with interviews with low-level psychopaths. Most of them think that we are sheeple for not doing what we want and that they are like the greatest and best and whatever.

Sorry to break it to you, but ASPD isn´t like >>8802083 said, some Übermensch genetic trait. It´s something very dysfunctional and unsuccesful.

Oh enlighten me then, Mr. 13yo edgelord, how is having little to no impulse control, no empathy, no ability to read emotions, no genuine moral system and (what´s the most important) little to no self reflection (being narcisstic does that to you) beneficial?
Yes, I admit, there are some psychopaths that can function on a very low basis, bcs they had a decent upbringing and enough brains to reflect on themselves. The guys you see in movies, the CEOs and whatnot, they are like that, but these are not common psychopaths. 99% of them are low-tier criminals or simple losers, since they can´t hold neither job nor relationships.
If you don´t believe me, look it up. There are studies about the demographics of people with aspd.
Being a psychopath isn´t "cool" or "helpful", it´s a disability, like Autism or ADHD. It can, CAN, have some advantages, but it´s very unlikely to surpass a normal person as someone with aspd.

But hey, I was an edgy chuuni, too. You´ll see what I mean, in a few years.

Sigh...

Okay, let me explain: Nobody says you have to be a moral faggot all the time, being calculating and backstabbing is good and fine.
But: Society works on trust. Things like raping a child, stabbing people in the face on the street, and so on, that´s a big goodbye to your social benefits.
Morals exist for a reason. You want something from people? Then act like someone who is trustable.
And most psychopaths are, contrary to Hollywood, not very good in acting trustable.

>>8802291
>Pretty sure they can do that.
With literal years of active training, they can simulate it, similar to autists. But genuinely, no.

>Aren't most of the studies done on criminal populations and similar?
Yes. Psychopaths make up 80% of the lower crime sector (theft, rape, arson, stuff like that). And there´s a reason for that.

>>8802300
People on the top strata of society tend toward psychopathy, this doesn't imply that ALL psychopaths are rich and successful, I am not being edgey or glorifying them I'm simply stating established facts. Psychopaths are either generally very stupid or very smart, the implication that you made that psychopathy is especially debilitating pathology isn't very accurate and basing your point of view on a book that singled out the low functioning ones does not paint an accurate picture of the pathology as a whole.

psychopathes dont have emotions a because their frontal lobes are very small or inactive. this particular part is distinctive feature of humanity from other animals. it allows a person feel sympathy, own emotions, concentration , will,fear everything.
so what is the purpose of this post.

you can do nothing to them or should do anything. they just live in their ways.

but some psychopathes dont even they are psychopathes or notice their lack of emotions. they just live.

and you just live your life.

>>8802304
>With literal years of active training, they can simulate it, similar to autists. But genuinely, no.
Source? I was under the impression that they don't really lack cognitive empathy when compared to normal person with similar intelligence.
>Yes. Psychopaths make up 80% of the lower crime sector (theft, rape, arson, stuff like that)
That doesn't support your claim that most psychopaths are low IQ criminals and dead beats. If almost all the studies are of criminal populations that doesn't mean they don't exist in general population, here's a study of university students:

What is the difference between psychopaths and sociopaths? Aren't these categories still so poorly understood that psychologists are gradually beginning to distance themselves from it as a concept? As far as I understand it hasn't been used as a diagnosis in a very long time.

>>8802341
It's just semantics, historically the distinguishing thing was etiology of disorder.
Psychopaths were more nature while sociopaths were more nurture.
There's also splitting of psychopathy into type 1 & 2 where 1 is more cold affect and callous while 2 is more reckless and low inhibition, I believe some people used psychopathy and sociopathy to somewhat distinguish between 1 & 2 as well. Now I think sociopathy isn't used as much, psychopathy is still used in papers at least and Hare keeps using it. In terms of diagnosis the closest thing would be ASPD in DSM, I forget what it's called in ICD.

>while sociopaths were more nurture
So psychopaths can be "made"? That doesn't seem right. Has there been any gene research on this at all?

>>8802366
Could be genetic + upbringing like the warrior gene stuff.

I have been diagnosed to have anti-social personality disorder. When I was 15 I first noticed that I am different from the others. Then I talked to my to psychologist about it, that I had to see twice a month because they think that I was traumatized because of my father. The psychologist wanted me to do all sort of personality tests and all that stuff, she found out that I rank quite high on the psychopath checklist.
So basically I started out as self-aware psychopath.

I want to make clear that I am any kind of homicidal maniac or anything like that, I do not get kicks form stuff like that. I do admit that I manipulate people a lot. Sometimes I do it for my own benefit, sometimes it is just to see if I can do it, and sometimes I do it because I am bored out of my freaking mind. It is usually just small stuff like to get some to buy me a drink or give me a cigarette, but sometimes I make couples to break up (sometimes I feel, I guess, pity towards them). I know that some of the things I do are wrong from certain perspectives but for me they are neutral. I do not enjoy breaking the law, I never steal, I rarely even cross red light even if there are cars nowhere to be seen.

My IQ is 153 so I am far from stupid. I guess I would be classified as intelligent psychopath. So psychopaths are no more stupid than "normal" non-psychopathic people.

I do justify the existence of psychopaths by simply saying: as long as men have walked on this earth, at least as long have psychopaths been among them. There is no saying which one is the true natural state of being.

I do apologize for my possible grammatical mistakes, I am not a native speaker of this language.

Why not just follow some basic rules like no cussing, shower every day, don't torture animals while masturbating furiously and so forth. You can do whatever you want, you can perform shady deals and make it big on the stock market, just don't cross any big lines.

>>8801481
Gr8 b8 m8. The way a lot of them end up treating themselves is to find an outlet through career or hobbies, as success in these things is often independent of other people.

>>8802327
This gave me an interesting thought.

>only person that can ever experience ones emotions is the person themselves
>therefore how would someone who has never felt emotion be able to tell that they didnt?

I guess you could say "they see the reactions of others and compare it to their own" but lets be honest, other people are very bad examples to measure against.

perfectly normal people that feel empathy and emotion do irrational things such as:
>become angry/sad at inappropriate times
>berate one another over meaningless things
>eat until they're 400lbs
>do strange things in the bedroom
>have violent thoughts (inb4 edgy, intrusive thoughts are normal)

Imo psychopathy doesnt refer to a defective brain, just one that operates differently. People diagnosed with it (that cannot handle it themselves) should be rehabilitated, not shunned. Many of the classic psychopaths that were violent had fucked up lives beyond their various diagnoses.

>psychopaths don't have emotions
Yeah they do. They just don't have social emotions relating to empathy. They usually have motivations for exploiting people, which requires emotions and desires. They are just extremely selfish emotions and desires.

>>8802083

Here is a pdf link to the best source I've found on psychopaths and skciopaths. They are literally predatory humans that lack a conscience. They actually thrive in our society and most end up in high places bc they have no qualms about making ruthless business decisions that give them cash but screw over huge amounts of people.

Psychos are not smart they are ruthless, only a human that lacks a conscience would spend months planning on how to kill someone without getting caught where as a normal person would get bored making the plan after a couple of minutes and move on. To the psycho once they get sadistic they have to live it out which is ironic because psychos are said to have weak emotions yet show higher levels of bloodlust than normal functioning people disproving the psycho are not emotional nonsense. These humans literally cannot fathom not using violence when they get angry they are nothing but wild animals who try to fool us into thinking they are human.

>>8799588
>i've never really understood why psychopaths are assumed to be aggressive or violent or whatever.
They are bored to tears with their existence.
With lack of emotional depth there's lack of emotional gratification, they grow sick of anything and everyone in no time. Friends get boring, hobbies/entertainments get boring, gotta get some thrills, just anything to make the brain feel ok.

There is a huge range of variability in the manifestation of psychopathic traits. Many have poor impulse control, general callousness/putting themselves before others without qualm. One thing that is really interesting is that one constant they seem to have is the boredom caused by lack of emotional depth. They grow bored easily and crave constant stimulation. So it's rare that they actually finish a project/research they've started. They are able to appear knowledgeable quite easily and this helps them with cons or other crap, but when faced with an expert their surface level knowledge is exposed. It isn't always violent but whether violent or white collar crime, they still have a tendency to screw others bc of that poor impulse control, lack of empathy and inability to remain on task for extended periods of time. Boredom drives them to do dumb shit. Sometimes it pays off, normally it doesn't. They tend to ruin the lives of whoever they come into contact with though. They're like philosophical zombies. Any emotions they express are a shallow imitation that's skin deep. It's just all an act. Nothing they do or say can be trusted. Sociopaths can be fixed bc the defect isn't hardwired into their brain but depending on the events that drove them to sociopathy, the ease with which this is accomplished varies wildly. I strongly urge any interested to check out the book I linked. It's called without conscience. If you google it 2nd or 3rd link from the top should be a pdf to the full thing.

>>8799249
>As well when they are forced to take part in therapy they just adapt and play the role of what their therapist thinks is correct behavior;
Doesn't everyone just do this? For example, if your parents make you go to the therapist over something and you don't want to be flagged with a mental illness for life, is it really a sign of psychopathy to just say and do all the right things? I did this as a teenager.

I spend most of my time in my rented house, in my room, with the exception of going to class. Usually before going, I'll have to determine who I'm going to see in that specific class, and adjust my personality based on what I'll look to get out of those people.

In my room I'll mostly study class material, work on class material, learn some topics not related to my studies, and sometimes listen to good music very loudly.

I have the capacity to gain an accurate understanding of a person or an event. Sometimes I don't get that understanding right in regards to other people, but towards myself, I'd say my insight is correct.

My impulse control can vary. In a social situation I wouldn't act out, because I need to preserve certain social appearances. However, the less I know someone/the less someone knows me, there wouldn't be anything inhibiting me from taking part in an impulse. So I'd say these impulses are regulated according to the situation. (｡‿‿｡)

This is how it starts, but people are very tight knitted with convincing each other to do shit by making each other feel bad. If you don't have that "feels bad" factor, people can't convince you to do shit and you end up getting called "heartless". Then, they all start trying to make you leave the situation, so they can replace you with someone that is easier to convince to do their shit.

I never did the third one but no cussing? How do you control what word represent your ideas? And i got over showering every day when i kept realizing i was at work again and didn't remember how i got there, day after day. Eventually your just at home or at work or getting something to eat.

You're treating it like a mental disorder when its not. These people lack empathy and most emotions besides anger. There are a few cases where psychopaths gain a strong attachment for a person or group but they dont identify it as direct love. The iceman is an example of that. But anyways, a mental disorder has to be classified as causing a severe mental and social struggle for an individual. A psychopath would never admit to being one and even if he/she did, they wouldn't feel regret, shame, sadness, or any emotional termoil about it. This means they wouldn't seek "help" and the industry for curing psychopaths would be dead. Psychfag and there's no helping these people. Its the equivalent of trying to cure Autism. Medicines may yield temporary results. I'd be interested in seeing that, actually. I'm unsure of what psychiatrists could prescribe though because for classic mood disorders, there is a clear and determinable excess of a particular neurotransmitter. Trials needed to determine if the addition/reduction in neurochemical levels would have an effect.

In fact attempting to teach psychopaths empathy always backfire and simply teach the psychopath how better to feign emotion and manipulate people.

What is better? To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?

>>8810619
Psychopaths don't see any ''evil'' nature to overcome.
