i think i am a phsycopath?

Question

I dont really feel much lately. Every sense is dulled and i have no real aspirations. I have let myself go and have became very reclusive. I want to live because suicide is idiotic. But i really dont see the point to it. Life looks to painful and harsh. I do not know what to do about this. Sometimes i think if i find love itll make my life a hundred percent better. But i also have trouble doing that these days because i have became so off kilter. And only want to talk about important things instead of the usual flirting and useless things you do when you first start dating. What should i do

I am also an atheist so please do not tell me to pray or anything like that because if that actually worked my mom who is a strong christian would not have such a horrible life. And all the poor children over the world. Thank you for caring though all that give this suggestion i appreciate it.

I am not in middle school i am seventeen. Please do not refer to me as a delusioned child i am a very intelligent person. And when i say phsycopath i mean it i also really do not care about others as i used to. I have became very self obsessed and i know this is wrong i cant help it though i find im more important then others cause i am in my own mindset cause without me there is no other.

Answer 1

it happens to the best of us, one degree or another. life's meaning, is strange as a ponder. no one has the answer. but i can tell you this. you sometimes have to take a step back from the norm to find out just which direction it is that you are interested in going. not psycopathic, just tired of the path you were going and stopping to have a look around before you head off in whatever direction it is you decide to go. sounds normal to me. maybe it is why the saying "stop and smell the roses" came to be. when life isn't what you want it to be. you can't keep going across crossroads blindly. stop.. get your sense of direction... and then start walking again... its your life and you have to do with it what you feel is valuable to you. good luck and smile.

Answer 2

Your not a psychopath. That would mean that you have antisocial personality disorder and have the following traits:

" A person with antisocial personality disorder:

Breaks the law repeatedly
Lies, steals, and fights often
Disregards the safety of self and others
Demonstrates a lack of guilt
Had a childhood diagnosis (or symptoms consistent with) conduct disorder"

It appears that you are suffering from depression, however it's best to get this diagnose from a therapist. You should really get help before it becomes worst. I have borderline personality disorder with depression so I know how you feel. It's horrible, but help is there for you. Just remember though in the end it's your choice to help yourself. I hope that you do. Good luck.

"Signs & Symptoms (of depression)

Answer 3

Hi, just wondering your age group, I agree with diamond, you're just feeling to be longing for something or love from someone but it's just not happening so far. It's a bit of a depression .
Don't concentate on what is not there but be hopefull, as long as you wake up in the morning and see life, grab of it. Keep your mind focus on the positive, things will change for you beyond your expectation, believe me.

You'll have the things you want, it could be on the way. . . CHEER UP . . .

Answer 4

You sound like you are suffering from clinical depression vs. being a psychopath but I am definitely not an expert. I am just another person with periodic bouts of major clinical depression. Seek professional help immediately before you have no desire to feel better. That is when things get tough and totally debilitating. My prayers are with you.

Answer 5

My friend, it sounds like you are suffering from a pretty bad case of depression. Please, please seek medical help. I am not one to push drugs on people but if you get something just to help get the ball rolling with getting your life back on track, things will get better. You are not psychotic, I promise. We all have these times in our lives and sometimes we just need something to kick start our lives back up. You will be fine but you need to get help. Life is so short and you deserve to be happy. Pray to God. Even if you don't know Him, just talk to Him and tell Him how you feel. God can fill you with a supernatural peace that nothing else matches. Good luck and keep us posted. You are worth the fight to feel better.

Answer 6

This definitely sounds like depression.

"Every sense is dulled" - this is detachment;
"no real aspirations" - this is hopelessness/loss of interest;
"let myself go" - this is helplessness;
"very reclusive" - loss of interest;
"suicide is idiotic" - thought of death/suicide;
"life looks too painful and harsh" - pessimism;
"do not know what to do" - helplessness;
loss of interest in dating;
"think I am a psychopath" - worthlessness.

Answer 7

i'm only 15, but i feel some of what youre feeling. i have the coolest friend, they make me so happy. but lately i've just been like, who cares? .who cares about me? who cares about them? who cares what i spend the rest of my life doing - just surviving it's good. don't care about a thing today. i used to but im fet up. but hey, i dont even know if this is the real way i feel. i've never been in a relationship, ive never felt love for someone [who isnt family], but i think: if i do, my life will be better & ill be happy.

i think you should just chill out for now [if it contines, seek professional advise]. find a way to relax & feel happy and alive inside. for me, it's music. i always have something playing.

good luck. i hope you find love, and i hope things all work out for the best. *smile!*

best wishes.
xoxo

Answer 8

The first thing that you should do is look up the meaning of psychopath because what you are describing is not psychopathic. You sound more like being depressed if anything.

Answer 9

This 'blunting' of emotion/s could possibly be a reaction to something that You just don't want to deal with at this time. IMPO

How long has this been happening-?

If this 'blunting' bothers You, then please seek help,.... there are a number of medications that might help this situation.

See a Doctor. IMO
