Crazy psychopath

There are more and more mentally ill patients in our country. Especially as society becomes more and more advanced, people are under increasing pressure, which can cause them to be unable to release their emotions. They are chased by all kinds of things every day, which makes it particularly easy to cause mental illness. A group of mentally ill patients will become more irritable and crazy after they become ill. So what should we do when facing crazy mentally ill patients?

1 in 100 people are mentally ill. Here’s how to tell if you have this problem in your life. When we think of the word "psychopath," the first thing that usually comes to mind is the depiction of crazy killers in the media.

The kind you see in Psycho, The Silence of the Lambs, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

But these descriptions are similar to those of real psychopaths. The reality is that most psychopaths are not murderers. This is good news. The bad news is that this fact makes a psychopath harder to spot in a crowd than you might think (hint: he's usually not the crazy guy walking down the abandoned streets in a black trench coat).

Studies show that one in 100 people meet the criteria for mental illness. That may not sound like a lot, but it means you know that one in every hundred people is a psychopath.

They may be your neighbors, your colleagues, your friends, or even your favorite people. Maybe there’s one sitting next to you right now as you read this!

And what's worse is that if we're talking about people in high-level positions, such as business leaders, lawyers, and surgeons, the percentage doubles or even quadruples. How do you find out with all these psychopaths running around?

After all, the quicker you identify a psychopath in you, the less likely you are to become one of their victims. Fortunately, psychologists have been studying psychopathic traits for many years. While theories of psychopathy may vary, most researchers tend to agree that real-world psychopaths display three clusters of personality traits.

This cluster is called the Dark Triad (link is

external), because people with these three traits often behave maliciously

(eg, crime, ethical violations, etc.). .

Machiavellianism Machiavellians are cunning, sly, and manipulative. They value power, money, and winning more than most people.

They easily disregard morals and social rules, and as a result, deceive others and manipulate them with little guilt. Glenon Gekko from Wall Street, or Frank and Claire Underwood from House of Cards. For people high in this trait, manipulating others is an impulse, just as drinking is an impulse for an alcoholic.

Sometimes this is done for personal gain (like getting a promotion), but sometimes it’s just for fun, or because they can’t stop themselves (like phishing). Depending on the type, these people's tools of the trade are deception, guilt, bullying, feigned weakness, or flattery.

But whichever they choose, they will often use these tools to distort the emotions and behaviors of those around them. Because these people are master manipulators, they tend to be very charming and likeable, at least on a superficial level.

They may lose interest and sympathy for a short time, but this appearance soon disappears and it is obvious that they only care about themselves.
