The Lonely Psychopath

Summary: (The full essay will follow shortly.) Those lower in boldness can be prone to depression, lack authentic social connections… so they may suffer in a lonely life. They may have harmed or burnt bridges with deceptive behaviour… along with a born disorder; narcissism may have developed from childhood experiences, so bad role modelling adds to the perception. Charm puts a person in a position where a facade and false self-construct is a full-time role.

By not sensing the damage caused, the residue from ‘just staying at home, will cause its own issues. Alienation and isolation can lead to harmful thinking cycles, a feedback loop that ruminates.

Those caught inside an isolated culture with a person with psychopathy who doesn’t have psychopathy… may suffer more than the person with the mental disorder. It’s important to identify if someone is caught in a relationship with a duty to something unhealthy for one or two.
