Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Have you ever met a sociopath, psychopath, narcissist, or dark
- 0:04Speaker 1: empath before? Well, this video could be the ultimate duel
- 0:08Speaker 1: between super characters to determine who wins the title of
- 0:12Speaker 1: most harmful. These personality disorders have dark traits or characteristics
- 0:17Speaker 1: that make them dangerous to the people around them in
- 0:20Speaker 1: varying degrees. Some personalities are more aggressive than others. Some
- 0:24Speaker 1: conceal themselves better than others. But what they all have
- 0:27Speaker 1: in common is their manipulative traits. While they all manipulate
- 0:31Speaker 1: people to get what they want, each has their unique
- 0:34Speaker 1: way and reason behind why they do it. So let's
- 0:37Speaker 1: explore each dark personality type briefly before going into which
- 0:41Speaker 1: one could be the most harmful to your mental health.
- 0:44Speaker 1: Number one, sociopaths. Hailing from the spectrum of antisocial personality disorder,
- 0:50Speaker 1: which by the way, is not just preferring pizza over
- 0:53Speaker 1: people and weighing in with a weak conscience coupled with
- 0:56Speaker 1: a weak sense of empathy, we have the sociopath. They
- 1:00Speaker 1: know they're wrong, yet find justifications instead of being good.
- 1:04Speaker 1: Sociopathy is characterized by, but not limited to, clearly don't
- 1:08Speaker 1: care how others feel, attachment issues, unpredictable, hot-tempered behavior. Their
- 1:13Speaker 1: low empathy and weak conscience makes lying and disregarding others
- 1:17Speaker 1: in pursuit of their own needs easier. When confronted with
- 1:21Speaker 1: consequences of their actions, they react negatively by showing spitefulness
- 1:25Speaker 1: and recklessness. Sociopathy is a chronic condition that can be
- 1:29Speaker 1: acquired by harsh family dynamics, such as parental instability or
- 1:33Speaker 1: sexual abuse. Let's look at our next contender, psychopaths. Also
- 1:39Speaker 1: hailing from the spectrum of antisocial personality disorder and weighing
- 1:43Speaker 1: in with zero empathy is the psychopath. Any outward justification
- 1:47Speaker 1: for their actions is for performative purposes only. Psychopathy does
- 1:51Speaker 1: have some different specs from its brethren, sociopathy. Where the
- 1:55Speaker 1: sociopath is an erratic volcano, the psychopath is a silent, black,
- 2:00Speaker 1: frozen abyss. The sociopath will show they don't care, but
- 2:06Speaker 1: the psychopath will convince you they do when they really don't.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Spotting a sociopath is easy. A psychopath makes it a
- 2:13Speaker 1: point to appear as normal as possible while hiding in
- 2:16Speaker 1: plain sight. The pros say that to diagnose a sociopath,
- 2:20Speaker 1: look for what's showing on the outside. To diagnose a psychopath,
- 2:24Speaker 1: it's much more based on what's happening on the inside
- 2:27Speaker 1: and why. Psychopathic qualities like recklessness and aggressiveness are caused
- 2:31Speaker 1: by a chemical imbalance in the brain, not upbringing. One
- 2:35Speaker 1: of their weapons is a non-automatic emotional response to others.
- 2:39Speaker 1: They can choose to understand how someone feels if it
- 2:43Speaker 1: benefits them. While they, like sociopaths, are not necessarily violent,
- 2:48Speaker 1: they lack the regular restraints and protections of empathy and
- 2:51Speaker 1: conscience to prevent them from becoming violent. Number three, narcissists.
- 2:57Speaker 1: The narcissist is the diva with the most ego. They
- 3:00Speaker 1: believe everything is about and for them. But snarking, you're
- 3:05Speaker 1: such a narcissist, when someone acts kind of douchey, doesn't
- 3:08Speaker 1: mean they have the disorder. To a true narcissist, confidence, limits,
- 3:13Speaker 1: and basic affection are now self-superiority, self-entitlement, and the expectation
- 3:18Speaker 1: of praise and servitude. In their minds, they get extra
- 3:22Speaker 1: because they are extra. Everyone else is a tool, toy,
- 3:26Speaker 1: or toaster to be used until they're no benefit to
- 3:28Speaker 1: the narcissist. Then they're discarded. According to one clinically confirmed case,
- 3:34Speaker 1: narcissism is self-defense in the pursuit of four primary goals. Fuel, control,
- 3:41Speaker 1: character traits, and residual advantages. The fuel is whatever emotion
- 3:46Speaker 1: they can evoke from you. Emotion vampires, narcissists savor every ounce.
- 3:52Speaker 1: They enjoy having control over how you feel. They steal
- 3:55Speaker 1: character traits, co-opting aspects of another person and passing them
- 3:59Speaker 1: off as their own. Money, sex, and contacts are all
- 4:03Speaker 1: residual benefits from their supply. This exploitative behavior stems from
- 4:07Speaker 1: childhood trauma. It could have been formed by being smothered
- 4:11Speaker 1: in protection and placed on a pedestal or by being
- 4:14Speaker 1: in an unstable environment. And now, The surprising fourth, dark empaths.
- 4:20Speaker 1: This term introduced in a 2021 study marks this contestant
- 4:25Speaker 1: as a yet untested newcomer. In this study, it was
- 4:28Speaker 1: discovered that these people tend to score high on empathy,
- 4:31Speaker 1: but also high on dark triad traits like narcissism, Machiavellianism,
- 4:36Speaker 1: and psychopathy. The dark empath could be described as a
- 4:40Speaker 1: black mirror version of ourselves. They have everything the other
- 4:43Speaker 1: personalities lack, especially empathy. Yes, empathy. But the dark empath's
- 4:50Speaker 1: empathy is cognitive only. Empathy means if you hurt, I hurt.
- 4:55Speaker 1: The dark empath's cognitive empathy means they fully understand the
- 4:59Speaker 1: pain they cause. They just don't feel it. Even if
- 5:02Speaker 1: they've been directly hurt in the past, they intuitively get
- 5:06Speaker 1: how others work and feel. So like a thief with
- 5:09Speaker 1: all the blueprints and passwords, their manipulations are devastating. For them,
- 5:15Speaker 1: with great power comes great wrongness. There's the bell to
- 5:19Speaker 1: the round. And the disorder that wins the title of
- 5:22Speaker 1: most harmful to your mental health is, honestly, between the
- 5:26Speaker 1: psychopath and the dark empath, it's a toss-up. Or is it?
- 5:31Speaker 1: The psychopath has the zero empathy attack. They have no
- 5:34Speaker 1: restraints of conscious or empathy and take advantage of others
- 5:37Speaker 1: without remorse. They relax your defenses by acting outwardly normal.
- 5:42Speaker 1: That's dangerous. What about the dark empath then? This could
- 5:47Speaker 1: be the most dangerous personality type because the dark empath
- 5:50Speaker 1: can intuit as opposed to study what other people are feeling.
- 5:54Speaker 1: This makes accurate manipulation far easier for them. If you
- 5:59Speaker 1: don't believe dark empaths are a thing, the singular type
- 6:03Speaker 1: of personality that is most dangerous would be the psychopath
- 6:06Speaker 1: who is unshackled by conscience. However, If you believe that
- 6:10Speaker 1: the dark empath is an entity unto itself, then this
- 6:14Speaker 1: is the winner. Beware their machinations as they have the
- 6:18Speaker 1: ability to tune in and focus attack through empathy. Comment
- 6:22Speaker 1: down below with your thoughts on which is the most
- 6:24Speaker 1: harmful and why you believe it is so. Always remember too,
- 6:28Speaker 1: that despite these personalities being a psychological phenomenon, which may
- 6:32Speaker 1: or may not be conscious choices, if you are the target,
- 6:36Speaker 1: You are never under any obligation to accept abuse. Stay safe,
- 6:41Speaker 1: and we'll see you soon.
