I am a psychopath, after reading more in depth about it online theres no denying it anymore. I thought how i was acting was normal to a degree but i take it so far out to the extreme. I used to be happy and i don't know what happened or how i grew into the mindset i have today. I dont feel bad about anything i do and i never forget when somebody does something wrong to me. when they do, i sit down and plot all day when im not doing anything how to set things straight and get them back hardcore. I am 100% concerned about myself and only myself, but i figure maybe since i had admitted to myself i have a problem and accepted that it is a problem that maybe it might be possible for me to change it. Ive tried but with not much luck. Ive realized its me thats the problem and not everyone else, and i was wondering if its possible for a psychopath to change their way of thinking or if i'm just wasting my time. Thank you.

i do not think you are a psychopath. i have worked with a lot of psychopaths in a medium security unit in Canada. all psychopaths do not feel there is anything wrong with them, and never do they admit that they have done something wrong. they never question their motives or actions, like you do. they completely lack a conscience. by asking that you want to change, shows me that your do have a conscience. a psychopath would never do that. sitting down and thinking how to get back at other people, could be just a relief for you. you must have a lot of unresolved issues in your life causing you to be sensitive and you may get hurt easily. some counseling with a therapist probably would make your life easier for you. i hope this helps you in your situation good luck.

Catch 22 If you are really a psychopath you don't care or want to change.
So the fact you want to change means there is hope.
First think about what you are doing. If you catch yourself in a psychopath moment make a different choice.
Second try religion. It has worked for a lot of people before you.
Third, if you are the kind of psychopath that is literally physically dangerous to others, check yourself into a public hospital psychiatric program. If you think you will hurt someone they have to take you in spite of ability to pay.

True psychopaths are not usually self-diagnosed and usually only get attention when fulfilling their selfish ways. You must have some feeling for knowing how you dont want to be cold hearted bastage. I doubt you are psychopath.

With God all things are possible.
I suggest you read the Bible (New Testament first). Since you know your behavior is wrong, ask God to forgive you and change you. Here are some Bible verses to look up: Romans 3:23; Romans 5:8; Romans 10:13; John 3:16; Proverbs 3:5,6; Philippians 4:6,7,8. I especially like Philippians 4:8 regarding thinking about true, just, pure, lovely, virtuous, praiseworthy things. If you can learn to force the bad thoughts out of your mind as soon as they pop up by replacing them with good thoughts, you're half-way home. I'll pray for you. God loves you. Yes, there is hope. I asked the Lord into my life many years ago and He has helped me and blessed me a lot.
