5 Signs Of A Dark Empath, Not Psychopath

While the term psychopath is not an official mental health diagnosis, it is used in clinical setting to mean someone who show signs of antisocial personality disorder. Antisocial personality disorder is the official clinical term for someone who has a pattern of using, manipulating and violating the rights of others. One thing that was highlighted in an abnormal psychology class is that psychopath actually have empathy, but they use it for their own gains. They manipulate others by using their ability to validate others for their own agenda. 在之前的視頻中, we covered dark empaths. Dark empath is a relatively new term referring to someone who also knows how to use empathy for their personal gains. 然而, there are differences between a psychopath and dark empath. Watch this video learn these interesting differences, and protect yourself from life difficult situations.

Dark empaths are people who have a high level of cognitive empathy only, not emotional empathy or compassionate empathy. They don’t possess the ability to provide wholehearted concern the way full empaths do. This is because, despite the fact that they are high in empathy, they are also high in the dark traits of narcissism, 精神病態, and Machiavellianism. One might mistake them as psychopaths because of their similarities. But here are a few ways dark empaths are actually quite different from psychopaths.

免責聲明: If you suspect you or someone you know possess some of these signs, we recommend further research and also seeking help from a professional.
