The videos I make are requested by you the viewers. Please feel free to suggest any topics you'd like me to cover in future videos.
You made a video on procrastination, so I've been thinking maybe you could make one addressing will power?
Great videos. Could you possibly explain the links between criminality (if thats a word?!) And cluster B. For example is there a clear correlation or causal relationship, what the literature says about this etc. Also I think there is a market for you to corner with case studies from your practice or the literature. This is lacking on this platform, something grounded in objectivity and the dsm. There is a certain CZcamsr who has the credentials and used to deliver such content but has since sold their soul for clicks. I have a keen interest in this topic for my own life and a professional point of view
@@maryuspandyra7359 thank you for your kind feedback and suggestion
Thank you for your suggestion and of course your kind feedback
Thank you for this. Could you do a video on a parent with apd?
Dude your channel rocks! You made so many great videos and have an awesome library of in depth topics regarding mental health topics and personality disorders, I love it! Thanks 🙏🏻
How do we co parent / parallel parents a young child with this type of person. I appreciate you have done a video on Co parenting with the narcissist. I finding it so painful to watch my son refuses contact at the age of 7 who has additional needs. I find this so soul destroying and I feel the court system every door I knock I am being blamed all over again or told it's just different parenting skills. I live in Northern Ireland so I find the court system is behind everywhere else. I get told by solicitors " dont piss him of or the judge" I have said over and over again and the system know this man is a danger but repeatedly ignore my concerns.
Thank you Doctor
Thank you!
My own theory on why some individuals with Antisocial Personality Disorder, particularly those who are deemed psychopaths (or sociopaths), seem to experience a lessening of trait-severity as they grow older, is based loosely on why they have trouble assimilating wisdom via negative reinforcement or simply learning from their own mistakes. Negative reinforcement or experiences are only one way by which we learn and grow. And, to be sure, it's a very effective teaching mechanism for most people. As well as being the teaching mechanism which is simply most pervasive; it's everywhere. But positive reinforcement, while maybe accounting for far less wisdom-earned, is still a thing. Psychopaths _do_ learn and grow by this mechanism. So, over the course of a psychopath's life, surely _some_ insight will be gained, in this way. Of course, not all individuals with APD could be accurately deemed psychopaths. And opportunities to learn by way of positive reinforcement are generally in shorter supply than their negative counterpart. So, this lessening of trait-severity may occur "to-scale" with those opportunities to learn and grow.
Thank you for sharing
Self awareness is learned, not insight, the cluster B brain is dysfunctional, they get more sneaky with age
I guess I’m confused as to the difference between antisocial and sociopath; is it that antisocial is in a sense a kind of cluelessness about their own behavior, a dumb kind of mean, like they got ‘lost in class and now they’re hopelessly behind the other students’ as opposed to a sociopath is the smart kind of mean, knowing what they’re doing is wrong but as long as they think they can get away with it they’re okay with doing it? In that vein I think it’s important for anybody who interacts with kids, parental or otherwise, to stress that mistakes are allowed because they are valuable learning experiences and vital to the learning/changing process. After all, when we’ve successfully learned a new skill we’ve changed. I could see a home environment where the punishment for mistakes are severe (the parent or adult is a bully) leads directly to an impediment to learning. It seems to me that learning is key here and highlights the link between abusive behavior and addiction, meaning not that being an addict makes one abusive but that bullying is itself an addiction and should be treated with a 12 step program. Learning and changing need to be equated.
What about when you don’t get what you want? Can you develop antisocial personality disorder later in life because you didn’t get what you wanted in life?
Is it true that all interpersonal ASPD relationships are based on target/prey, or do some of these people have a few core relationships that are stable and not based on exploitation?
