I was born in Argentina a country that was under military dictatorship in the 70's and I've heard some stories of women that were kidnapped and they ended up in romantic relationships with their torturer/captor. Trauma can create a bond. The bond is born out of necessity, it is a survival mechanism. I enjoyed your video thanks.

Happened to a lot of the women in the Hells Angels who were considered “property” and had to be available to anyone in the club unless she had an “old man”. Things have been changing since the 70’s in that institution as well.

@@maryellengodfrey truthfully that situation is completely different. The women who hang around the Hell’s Angels willingly insert themselves into the culture, and are well aware of the dangerous environment and type of men that are involved. They are attracted to rebellious assholes who like to fight, fuck, demean women, and curse each other out. Its completely different than a hostage or captive.

I feel sorry for anyone who is actually trapped and mentally surrenders to their abusers. When a person gets to that point, their genuine spirit is broken. Thank you for this excellent video, Dr. Grande!!!

Years ago, in my country Costa Rica, two European women tourists were kidnapped by a Nicaraguan paramilitary group. They were kept in the jungle for weeks. The group sent a picture to the newspapers of the leader kissing one of the captives. They were sorrounded by these fierce looking guys armed to the teeth, and her body was rigid. She was enduring the kiss, not returning it. People began babbling about Stockholm Syndrome. As if there was anything the girl could have done to fight off a group of armed men. The women were finally rescued and returned home, but I can only imagine the nightmare, and being blamed for it into the bargain.

Agreed. I think all of us can do bad at some time or another (and certainly do stupid), but there is something different about people who constantly need to attack - not out of fear, or low self esteem, but plain old meanness (malice).

One way to think of Stockholm Syndrome is as a shift in fundamental attachment patterns. In older people (certainly over 12), these patterns are well-established, and they shift significantly only with major life events. Captivity (as well as combat, cults, chronic illness, etc.) seems in some instances to make sufficient impact to elicit obvious behavior changes. This makes sense to me, in that our earliest attachment "templates" are formed by repeated interactions with those who directly meet our basic needs. If our degree of dependency changes, especially for a long period and with the highest stakes (whatever our definition of that is), it is no surprise that our patterns of relating would, too.

19 years old! I don't know much about her, but I know about being a 19 year old female. Maybe she just made the choice to survive. I think I would have - even if it meant being a participant. I feel sorry for her. That's too much at that age. Thank you Dr Grande. 👍🌹

Thank you for the interesting video! You should do a personality analysis of Stephen McDaniel! He was found guilty of stalking and eventually murdering a girl that lived next door to him. What's interesting about his case is that firstly, a news reporter revealed to him during a broadcasted interview that the police had found her dismembered body. His facade instantly crumbled and his panic and shocked reaction was recorded in full by the news reporters. Secondly, he seemed to have full control over his own interrogation by remaining perfectly still for over 2 hours. He never broke eye contact with the detectives and responded almost exclusively with "yes" "no" or "I don't know." Even when the detectives left the room, he didn't move an inch and stared at the door until the detectives came back. When the footage is fast forwarded, its truly remarkable to see how impossibly still he was during the entire interrogation. No one seems to be sure as to whether or not this was an intentional strategy, an unintentional defense mechanism or a complete mental breakdown.

@@PunkBunny56 hi there. I can completely relate to what you replied. I understand how you can be dying to get out and leave the situation but you simply cannot do it. I was stuck like that as well in a very toxic abusive relationship and I kept telling myself get out just leave and I could not do it. I tried everything but I was so wounded and so traumatized from my upbringing that it just changed the way I was as a person completely. I'm so sorry that you had to go through that and that it almost took being murdered until you were able to escape the situation. What got me out was my boyfriend at the time finally just moved and did not put his phone number out in the public so there was no way I knew where he was or how to contact him. But it was still hell for me. I hated myself so much I felt like I was an addict that was addicted to something worse than heroin. And then it happened with other relationships too. I knew to get out I was never being physically abused but it was so toxic. And I just didn't leave, I couldn't leave. And the only people that understood that were my therapists. But ultimately all the therapy did nothing for me. I hope that you have healed and are finding some sense of Freedom now and are making the choices that you need to make to protect yourself. Thank you so much for leaving your reply I really appreciate it. Take good care of yourself and stay strong. As for me I am doing so much better but I am 62 years old now and a lot has changed and I also have found God in my life and that has brought me the most healing of anything. But I tell you those earlier years were a complete hell. Have a great day

In 1973, during a bank robbery in Stockholm, Jan Erik-Olsson took four bank employees hostage and held them for six days, tormenting them with the threat of dynamite and hanging. Yet when they were released, some refused to cooperate with the investigation or to testify against him in court. Not only that, some actively contributed to the financial cost of his defense and appeared to believe that their captor was in fact humane and protecting them from the police. Swedish psychiatrists described a new type of mental disorder: Stockholm Syndrome.

Actually, he seems to have little regard for the effectiveness of the DSM. I would be very interested to hear your views on his work. Thank you in advance.

Hi Dr Grande, could you please do an analysis of Josef Fritzl. He kidnapped his daughter and held her captive in the basement for 24 years. She bore him 7 children, all this happened while the family lived upstairs and never knew. He led a double life, was respected in the community. This took place in Austria about 10 years ago and was a horrific story that made headlines around the world. Thanks Dr Grande, would like to hear your thoughts and insights.

Rosebud. Some great inspiration for topics in the comments. "People struggle to accept that something like that, could remain unconscious." I appreciate you going into detail a bit about Stockholm syndrome. I'd like to understand more about what that could mean too. Meanwhile I'll keep watching older content. Dropping 2 standard deviations in iq is scary, I had never heard intelligence could be so fluid it's not discussed much beyond being tired or stressed. During a long but difficult relationship, I really felt like I had really become dumb and needed guidance. Any mistakes I made/make seemed to cause unproportionate damage too. It's still taking time to adjust and my confidence isn't the same (tbh I'm terrified smoking with my Mr. Weed in my 20s could of had a permanent impact, and would like to hear more about the various effects marijuana use has on different people too and if it's related to personality). I never took an iq test as a kid or adult either. When a kid it was pushed on me by people for the wrong reasons I felt (and it really scared me to have someone put a number on me, or to put belief in that. I never felt special, just responsible. Different, and that was ok but part of my responsibility. Thinking like that made me vulnerable tho I think. Life became much easier when I didnt have so many expectations or clear dreams and just relaxed to approach what may come) I've been putting a lot of thought into genetics and looking into my grandparent's lives and further back too. There may be some OCD and PTSD that runs in the family. Unfortunately nobody is diagnosed with anything and didn't seek treatment much that I know... I'd like to know more about what roles genetics could play. My father heartbrokingly referred a few times to a "family curse". I didn't see that way because I saw the positive impacts my ancestors made on society. I feel he must feel overwhelmed with familiar traits maybe and understanding that has been very important to me. I used to watch a lot of movies but can't remember them well now. I'll relax and watch Citizen Kane that's a great idea. Maybe I can ask a relative to watch with me.

"Where did they get the name SLA?" Evidently, the name impulsive, narcissistic, criminal squad was already taken." LOL

Hi Dr. Grande, been a fan of your videos for awhile now, espsecially your series following cases such as this and your other videos on true crime mental health & personality analysis. I wanted to suggest a case that has been particularly interesting for me. You may have heard of the murder of young girl named skylar neese back in 2012 by shelia eddy and rachel shoaf, two classmates that were supposedly two of skylar's best friends. I feel like this case is particularly interesting because it seems that shelia and rachel still haven't given a clear motive other than they simply "didn't like her" but there's got to be more to it then that I think and I would certainly be interested to hear your thoughts on it.

Thank you Dr. Grande for covering the Patty Hearst debacle. I am female and 5.5 yrs younger than Ms. Hearst. This story did not evade my attention as an adolescent female who had a minimal interest in "news" at the time, but I think I pricked my ears more often than usual when I caught a flash of a headline or a voiceover because I was so close to her in terms of gender and age. I can see how you would lead towards to Stockholm syndrome and it certainly does make sense to me. now I may be parading around as a complete idiot because I never followed through and research this ancillary theory/notion I have but, it seems to me that it could be a stroke of genius or a diabolical stroke of genius, capitalistic if you will, if the Patty Hearst story represented much in a tabloid-style, sensationalist, yellow journalism, what-have-you.... if this story manifested and was bandied about consumers' eyes, reporters' and journalists' eyes and filled capitalists' pockets being represented as a mystery or that bottom line of whodunit, sensationalist yellow journalistism. Who's going to benefit from this mystery that's been perpetuated over a protacted number of years. I don't think that the Hearst syndication had any problem finding financial gain in this so called sensationalized, mystery surrounding Patty Hearst. What do you think about that convoluted possibility when you conflate that with the already dubious circumstances surrounding Patty Hearst?

Hi Dr. Grande! Wonderful video, as usually! Could you make a video about Peter Scully, please? He is probably the worst human being I have heard of, and I cannot understand how someone can become so evil. Thanks a lot!
