I'm glad he said Anakin was not a psychopath. I think his explanation that he has more BPD symptoms makes much more sense. Part of the reason Anakin even turned to the dark side is because he had this love for padme which made him do anything he could to make sure his vision of her death didn't come true. His fear blinded him so much that he essentially did the opposite of his goal which was that he ended up having some responsibility in her death.

Anakin being borderline makes sense. He's not really cold and unfeeling (if anything he's overly passionate). He's a control freak that can't fix his world, and the more he tries the worse things get, which just digs him deeper into crossing moral boundaries. That's the big shift in the Star Wars series prequels. Vader is revealed to be just a tragic henchman, who has resigned himself to doing evil because he feels trapped by his own predicament.

Titlte should be: "Psychiatrist analizes Star Wars' Anakin Skywaker, and explains why he became a Sith Lord, but does not grant him the rank of psychopath"

So many times people with personality disorders are mirrors of their surrounding and can’t regulate emotions OTHERS have projected on to them.

I always loved the Clone Wars series because it brought more context to who Anakin was and why he turned. The guy was a child they turned into the face/hope of an entire organization. By his teenage years his "peacekeeping" cult is leading a war and he's relied on by the Jedi and the Republic as one of their best commanders and the best pilot. He's leading tens of thousands of lives, training a padawan (who leaves because she doesn't agree with how the Jedi act anymore), and has to hide what's important to him everyday. All this while growing up and is still a young man. Makes him seem less like a sniveling brat and more like a man who breaks.

I grew up with a psychopath brother. Hard to explain to people. Videos like these give me some comfort, because this man explains what a psychopath is and that a psychopath does not form a bond unless there is something to gain. The bond is never really there. Manipulation is everywhere around the corner. For my brother, it became a game. He played with people's trust and then hurt them, either physically or mentally. There is something completely unpredictable about it, because his actions were logical only for him.

As someone with Borderline Personality Disorder, I always appreciate when the expert makes a special point during the interview to explicitly clarify that people with mental illnesses, especially those with the frequently criminalized ones like psychopathy and BPD, are not likely to be dangerous. We’re human just like everyone else, and we’re a million times more likely to be a threat to ourselves than to another soul.

Late in the series, as his relationships progressed (particularly with Rita and his sister), I started wondering if it was his adoptive father who really made Dex a serial killer by training him for murder instead of getting him treatment for his obvious PTSD. It's a great series for such an analysis because you get the internal monologue.

Just know the KZread channel and the podcast are very different content wise. The show is more of a reaction channel to relationship-based reality television, the podcast is more academic in nature with fictional character and hot topic psychological analyses, episodes or even a series of episodes committed to exploring a single disorder in-depth, and listener Mail. There are also a few episodes that are miscellaneous entertainment and don’t have a particular appeal to psychology.

Would love to have seen the movie Nightstalker mentioned here, such an excellent portrayal of sociopathy

The manic episode that finally got me diagnosed ironically began with the Carpenters song that goes “I’m on top of the world looking down on creation” being stuck in my head to the point of being unable to do anything but listen to and sing that song for nearly an entire day.

Would love to see a “No Country for Old Men” breakdown. Quality choices though, keep the videos coming.

@@sarahrosen4985 psychopath and sociopath are actually not diagnosable but rather both are kinda just layman’s terms for a wide range of emotional and mental disorder, mainly anti social personality disorder. Psychopaths are seen as more violent with no emotions while sociopaths are more of a lighter version of this, but again neither are actual diagnosable disorders.

I think the film title describing Norman Bates as a psycho is short for psychotic not psychopathic.

Thank you for saying that about BPD! I get so sick of a woman kills someone, the they point to possible BPD. We’re a mess but we’re not murderers and we CAN get better with therapy and meds. I have. And that harmful stigma meant that I did not get proper treatment for years and years because I had therapists literally tell me, “You don’t want that. It can’t be treated.”

Outside of what Annie did to Paul she was also a serial killer. When she was a nurse she killed 11 infants when she worked in a maternity ward and is responsible for many deaths outside that.

Stephen King very famously said that he wrote Misery because it would be his worst nightmare come to life and Annie would be the absolute worst person he could ever meet. Btw, if you ever get the chance to see King speak live, DON’T miss it. He’s one of the funniest celebs I’ve seen give a lecture.

With anikan not just the loss of his mother but even in his teenage years when he lost the only true father figure he had in qui gon jin that effected him a lot to, and to see someone he thought of as a brother in obi one get all the adoration and success while he never got the rank of master filled him with jealousy and hatred for him.

@casesoutherland4175

I would love to see his analysis of Hannibal Lecter played by Brian Cox in Manhunter. It's Lecter's very first appearance and I think Cox's performance is criminally underrated!!

Eric went to a Halloween party as himself and won best costume as 'Clark Kent'.

His talk of the BTK killer always gets me talking. I’ve lived in Park City Kansas my whole life, and my parents met him a couple times. I met him all of once when I was a wee child, I hardly remember there interaction, just that he was rude.

It's interesting that he uses the Psychopath Questionnaire in addition to the DSM, which does not contain Psychopathy as a diagnosis. I've never seen this described the way he uses it--like Psychopathy can overlap with any of the personality disorders. It makes sense, but it's certainly novel and was not part of my training when I was learning how to diagnose.

Great to see him again. Always happy to see more Psychiatrist Breaks Down , i feel like i can listen for hours, shame that this video is only half as long as the 1st one.
