In a litter of puppies, you will have different temperaments. Some might be snugglers, and one might be a biter. Humans are the same, in my opinion, but it is less obvious because we have one child at a time.

If every person was a psychopath, there wouldn't be any society.

Your opener’s are always so great- the sarcastic humor is spot on… and much needed around heavy topics like this 🙏🏽

People often think that something might have traumatized me. But as far as I remember... I was much more unhinged during my younger years. I got kicked out of 8 schools before I was 12, but I had loving parents and a great family life, nothing was traumatizing me. I wasn't just bullying, I would punch teachers in the face, burn furniture, vandalize property and mess with girls just because I was bored in class. My behaviour changed when I was hospitalized for a year because of an accident. That accident made me much more reserved and calculated than I would have otherwise been. I'd say that accident trauma helped me to become colder instead of fly-off-the-handle angry I used to be. After that, the only times I got uncontrollably angry was whenever police got in my way. That too is rare now. I made up my mind at age 25 to intentionally leave my criminal career that was a source of great power for me. I know that I might be easily triggered to do something criminal again if I hit a low again... but other than that, if everything remains as expected, I think I can control myself. After watching this video, I am glad that accident happened.

I can relate a lot to this. I was very similar as a child, my most problem years being from aged around 8-20. It was most severe between 12 and 16. I have improved since then and similarly I am now far more calculated and deceptive where I used to be reactive and had no control over my behaviour/impulses. I make a conscious effort to steer clear of crime as I do not want to be incarcerated and value my freedom but it definitely isn’t easy and I often get bored and am drawn back to risky pursuits and behaviour.

bro... how is that possible????

You mentioned something at the beginning of the video about the actual anatomy of the brain being different in psychopaths? And then towards the end you briefly mentioned the group of psychopaths that have no conduct disorder behavior in childhood. I'm wondering if you can do a video and discuss the relationship of psychopathy and the issues I just mentioned. Along those lines, I'm wondering about brain injury (like some type of accident that physically injures the brain) during childhood possibly being related to the development of psychopathy later in life. Thank you

This is very interesting. I find it interesting that some of the greatest men in history where non-conformist types and we're often hated by their contemporary peers. Some people may have said they were mentally ill as well

Saturday fun! Thanks so.much!

The valuable tool that we have now, compared to decades earlier studies is MRI and specifically functional MRI scans which show brain abnormalities and what activity is taking place and where. Extraordinarily valuable tool - but expensive.

You are an amazing man a wonderful teacher. You have changed my life forever and I cannot thank you enough❤

You’ve made some absolutely solid points in this video. Every bit of this discussion makes complete sense.

OK Shoshannim

This is very interesting. I was forced (criminal law was my last choice) to do a placement with the public defenders office when I was at university. One defendant was a serial killer who my mentor was preparing to defend at trial. I had to read the psych report on him and it was the first time I’d heard of the homicidal triad. This 23 year old man had been torturing animals since he was child. He had a pet cemetery at his home, he was a bed wetter and lit fires. His grandmother raised him and she was into the occult. It was horrifying - both his crimes and his childhood.

Finally, someone intelligent who isnt living in cloud cuckoo land! Consentrating on childhood/parenting skills. Prevention is better then 'trying' to cure at a later date. The damage is already done!! This should have been the priority. Its just common sense. Not alot of that about though, thats the problem! Thank you Sam, this topic has frustrated me for years. If only we had stricter rules to become parents. If we were to have to abide by the adoption regulations. We would see a deamatic decline in mental health in future generations. Mental illness/health produces more mental illness/health. Common sense!! When will the officials get into the real world! Rant over! Thank you for your comon sense and your high intelligence ❤

Hey Sam, I’ve noticed in a lot of online spaces with younger demographics (i.e tiktok, instagram, tumblr, etc.) there is an idea that BPD/NPD does not make a person abusive. The argument is that a diagnosis does not make someone abusive, but the person with the disorder is just a bad person. I am philosophically opposed to the idea that people can just be “bad”, or abusive for no apparent reason. That leaves me with the sticky situation of over-generalizing a group of people suffering from a disorder. I don’t necessarily like that either. Id appreciate hearing your thoughts on this. Wonderful video, as always!

Would love to see more progress in the study and treatment of the 'ASPD

Thankyou very much I agree 100%

As someone diagnosed ASPD at age 50, I couldn’t agree more! The only reason I got the diagnosis in the first place was because my family ordered a police welfare check on me (I wasn’t answering their phone calls) and when the cops came through my back door and found me smoking weed, they started to go through the process of confiscating my stash charging me with drug possession. A criminal record for drug possession would effectively ruin my government career so I was furious. I verbally abused the cops while they were on the phone to my family who were telling the cops that I was behaving completely out of character bla bla bla so they had me involuntarily committed to a psych ward for 30 days. I was so angry at having my career ruined, my freedom stolen, a drug charge on my criminal record and my weed destroyed, I gave them hell in the psych ward. They refused to acknowledge I was angry for a valid reason. They claimed I had no insight into my behaviour when imo it was the damn psychiatrists who had no freaking insight! I now refuse to mask up anymore and my family has disowned me thinking I’ve destroyed my mental health with drug abuse LOL all because I spent a lifetime choosing to not be anti social. It seems to me it’s the so called average intelligence neurotypicals who are the issue with the world. They’re the ones who need laws to give their own lives meaning and direction. I wish I could give your video a million likes, you’re spot on.

Interesting content. Keep up the good work on your channel. Regards, WR4K.

Great concluding remarks there. One possible approach might be to define maybe something like a "pre-disorder", in which the individual doesn't end up committing crimes or hurting others, but has similar socialization patterns - has problems with intimacy, career problems that have roots in socialization. Such people may have developed alternative strategies/cognition that could help figure out exactly what goes wrong in the case of the person who has the anti-social disorder?

Is narcissism associated with psychopathy?

@samvaknin

Like narcissists, psychopaths are grandiose. The two disorders are often comorbid (diagnosed in the same person).

And serial killers

Could it be that the brain of a child makes an assessment of “is the society and/or family in which I live based on love or something else?” If the community is based on love, the child develops “normally”. If the community is based on something other than love, the child is inclined to develop a personality disorder, one that helps them fit better into their unloving environment.
