You’re not kidding. From an interview with him: And as I was growing up, people all throughout my life said I could be some kind of gang leader or mafioso don because of certain behavior. Some parents forbade their children from hanging out with me. They’d wonder how I turned out so well-a family guy, successful, professional, never been to jail and all that. I asked everybody that I knew, including psychiatrists and geneticists that have known me for a long time, and knew my bad behavior, what they thought. They went through very specific things that I had done over the years and said, “That’s psychopathic.” I asked them why they didn’t tell me and they said, “We did tell you. We’ve all been telling you.” I argued that they had called me crazy, and they all said, “No. We said you’re psychopathic.”

Is this what they mean when they say psychopaths are extremely charming? Listening to him, hes very likeable and his humour puts you at ease. The atmosphere is inviting. I would never be on guard talking to / confiding in him if I didn't know about his diagnosis. Its very jarring to hear him casually mention his daughter saying hes a narcissist, his wife saying hes a character in Silence of the Lamb, his family thinking the diagnosis "makes sense" and him being absolutely oblivious.

This is my husband to a tee… non violent psychopath with all the epigenetic adversity from childhood, a horrendous childhood, a psychopathic severely emotionally disordered alcoholic mother. He’s an alcoholic and diagnosed bipolar. The first time I experienced real empathy from him was when he was taking antipsychotics…. It was brief… but it was there. It’s gone now, and he mostly tries to get through life by. being a pretender. He often just asks me what specific things I need him to do or act like so I’m ‘happy’…. But, I am already happy in my own self/ life…. It’s that he cannot emotionally love or emote… I simply keep asking for emotional love, and he’s bewildered. He shows absolutely no genuine care or concern for me or the kids on an emotional level. Hes at the top in the car industry and highly manipulative. He’s done some of the most evil vengeful things to me based solely on an assumption he had, no facts. He is jeckyl and hyde. And hyde is terrifying…. But…. He’s not physically violent…. Though his cunningness and charm allows him to gain pity and sympathy anywhere he goes, and he escapes nearly all consequences of his transgressions. He lacks all emotional depth, and is a master at knowing the right time/ things to say to get what he wants. He presents himself as a meek, ‘nice’, passive and very quiet man… or he talks very quietly… to evoke that he is gentle…. But… he is absolutely not gentle. My daughter and I live in an emotional straightjacket in our home because our emotions send him into rage and punishment. He has no ability to see our emotions with curiosity or care. On the flip side he is the most emotionally unstable, mentally unstable person I’ve ever met, despite his veneer of stability which he achieves using a strong ability to suppress emoting all negative emotions. He sees this as superior. I see it all as… well…. Psycho. Read ‘psychopath free’ if you have a loved one who seems a lot like the man in the video…. It will help you a lot.

Same as always, your greatest hope is a parent or parents who would give you proper nurture and love in your childhood. If you're psychopath, the emphasis or it goes 100x more important. It's not a 100% fool proof, but without it, a psychopath does not stand a chance.

I agree the upbringing of a child is paramount to whether they become a productive/caring member of society. I have tried to contact Dr. Fallon to have the tests done that he has in order to determine my predisposition to this as I have all the tell-tale signs. I was brought up in a somewhat loving/religious family and I think it has made all the difference in my staying on the straight and narrow in life. I guess it shouldn't really matter whether I find out if I have a psychopaths brain but I just feel it would help to explain some of the disadvantages I've faced throughout my life.

Exactly. You cìan be batshit crazy and never see the inside if a prison or psych hospital.

I actually got a couple of questions that I found during the talk: 1) It seems that there are a focus on the limbic system, so if you have a"psychopathic deficiency" in the limbic system, how would you, knowing that the nerve-system have plactitcy, train or affect that in a more "non-psycopatic" direction? Are there specific drugs that can be used? Context based behavioral theraphies ? 2) Knowing the facts found by research, is it then posible to screen for genetic and family historic markers, to identify and influence say: very young kids in a direction where they have less change of developing full psycopathy from a more focused nurturing perspective. Do's and don'ts in kindergarden, schools, and other social settings. 3) Again plasticity of the brain: In what degree can a person, due to a bad environment and things that happens in life, go from a "non-psycopatic" behavioral pattern to a more "psycophatic", and are there any data on the social setting "creating" psycopathy?

It’s like there are extremes on the end of a spectrum ~ psychopaths and highly sensitive empaths. Early trauma and lack of a nourishing childhood can damage people on either side of that range with differing results...

If he had no other opportunity to showcase himself, and enjoy an ascribed status, I’m sure his behavior would shift to more typical antisocial conduct. He would find any convenient way to exercise power, and feed into his narcissistic grandiosity. I think the secret to his success is the opportunities to be the center of attention, and regularly having a stage to superficially charm an audience of strangers with no interpersonal ties to himself. His ideas are predicated on the need for psychopaths, but most significant examples he gives are to combat problems caused by other psychopaths. Basically, I think he’s a psychopath that’s full of shit, and funded by other “successful” corporate psychopaths. Empathy is the foundation of egalitarian society, which is hindered by these very people. Interesting, sure, but not at all worthy of trust or status.

Thank you very much. Many things you have disclosed are similar to what I believe. Psychopathy is much more complex than how we often hear about it. It was reassuring to hear you speak on this topic and glad to hear about possible directions for improvement in the lives of humans.

I wonder how is a combination of a strong conscience and empathy (neither of which psychopath have) and strong tendency for violence called? Is that even a thing in some handbook. What I mean, I'm not normally aggressive, yet might turn to "take no prisoners!' kind of rage instantly, when encountering a threat to me or people close to me. Also got pretty strong beliefs in justice and wrong and right, so I used to joke, in than past i might have become an inquisitor, to which lady I know once joked, would I burn her as a witch then? To which I answered: "I might be insanely cruel, yet I'm not a sadist, so I'd cut your throat first, and only then light up the fires." She has never joked about that since, wonder why.

The neuroscience is so oversimplified it is hard to relate to what he is saying other than the fact that the environment plays a huge part of the result of the kind of adult we become! So what's new! He overdramatizes the connection between having a risk-prone temperament, having been spoiled, and being a psychopath. You could say jerk or bombastic or overly self-centered, self-involved human being, but so was Picasso. Just because your amygdala does not light up in an fMRI does not mean it is not engaged as the threshold for detection by that device requires high levels of engagement. And then there is the PFC which can dampen the amygdala; all work by LeDoux that is well established. What idiot-psychiatrists thought it was a good idea to tell this narcissist that he is some borderline psychopath to give him a platform in his old age for talking and talking and talking about himself? What this tells you is that it is post-genetic expression that matters a great deal more in terms of the encoded operational strategies that an individual engages in order to obtain optimal outcomes which are rewarded and that those innate influences get tuned by one's experience!

I'm not Dr. Fallon but I can help hopefully. Sociopathy and psychopathy are not personality traits that are cultivated by experiences and environmental factors; they are inherited just like as an individual is born with black, blonde or red hair. The color of your hair isn't changed by anything (except for dying it) and likewise your traits cannot be changed (however controlled). ASPD and MDD are conditions that are created from how you perceive your environment as you grow from childhood to adulthood, your personality traits influence this. The fact that this bothers you is actually a good thing. True psychopaths do not experience fear the way that the average person does; it takes extreme measures for them to feel any sense of impending doom, hence the fact that you DO experience this anxiety means you are not a psychopath. Also, by definition sociopaths lack empathy or concern for the thoughts and well being or the feelings of others. Again, since you fear that you may act in a way that will potentially harm others reveals that you do care about others to a certain extent and you are therefore not a sociopath.

There are two sets of psychopathic traits. One set deals with sort of baseline personality. The other deals with criminality/behavioral traits. I score very high on the psychopathy test for personality traits, but low on the criminality. There are people who would therefore dismiss me as a psychopath, but there's not another condition that fits me as well (lack of empathy, low emotional affect, etc.). Kiehl's work is very focused on people who have extreme criminal behavior, so clearly that's not me or Dr. Fallon. But I had a very safe childhood with very clear moral instructions where good behavior was enabled and expected, and more importantly I accepted those values and the existence of God...without that I would have killed or at least attempted to kill at least a couple people. It's honestly very frustrating, because almost no other condition is primarily studied in prisons rather than the general population. Imagine mainly studying depression in prisons rather than the general population and how that would skew findings.

If a baby’s “DOS” system is corrupted (by abuse, neglect, malnutrition, etc. vs. nurtured, encourage, & taught solid useful things) during the 1st 3 to 5 years, & depending on how much good & bad things influence their DOS, it has better or worse foundations to build the rest of their lives on. So….he’s just now discovering this? He’s old enough to have been around as an adult when Erickson launched his thesis about it. But, it doesn’t help industries, & society, systems & officials have chronically ignored this, because, if they counted this factor, they couldn’t justify the budget cuts done that killed programs that help stop the problem. Like, the programs in Britain, & the US, that had a licensed nurse go to the home of a newborn, weekly for some months, then reducing to twice a month, then down to monthly until the child reaches about age 5 to 7. If another baby joins the family, the visits revert to weekly, etc. It supported the whole family, not just the children. What supports a family, influences how well that family makes their way in the world. The collateral effects were pervasive & significant…talking large, countable, cost savings, because the programs remediate & reduced abuse, neglect, frustration, dysfunctional behaviors. The officials who cancelled the programs “because they cost too much”, had failed to wait to see the effects & savings the programs caused. But this guy has helped substantiate it far better, by including the epigenetic factor, & the scans.
