There are times when it is good to have a clinical psychopath in your life!
.
OR
.
(When “Bad” mental health turns “Good”)
.
.
INTRO
.
.
Does the very idea of meeting a psychopath scare you?
.
What about meeting one when you are vulnerable and in a weekend state?
.
You might be very surprised to know that when you are seriously ill or injured or even helpless is the one time you really want to meet a psychopathic stranger!
.
Especially if that stranger has an array of sharp knives!
.
Because if you need hospital surgery you best surgeon is most likely to be on the Psychopath greyscale.
.
And the more skilled the surgeon the more likely and more deeply they are to be further up and along with that scale!
.
Because the term psychopath is misused and twisted an absolutely insane amount!
.
.
Now, that the intro out the way lets gets to the heart of this article.
.
I am going to cover several types of commonly misunderstood atypical mental health states (a type of thinking that are not perceived as “Normal”) and discuss how in the “Correct context” they are a vital need of our society.
.
It is just taking the right person with the right training in the right job.
.
You need the right tool for the right job.
.
You would not use a hammer when you need a screwdriver!
.
You need to understand what sort of “Tools” people are.

.
BUT FIRST!
.
The Disclaimer.
.
I AM NOT A DOCTOR!
.
Despite the medical profession's obsession with categorising and diagnosing people.
.
People in the real practical non-ivory tower world are far more complex.
.
There is no you are “this” or “this” in the real world, only degrees of multiple spectrum grey.
.
If People were houselights, then their mental states and conditions are dimmer switches, not flick switches
.
As a very trite oversimplification.
.
I am a very different person before my first-morning coffee that I am afterwards.
.
And that is just day to day moment to moment, that has not even touched on the “Nurture” part of the equation!
.
The same child with exact same Psychopathic architecture to their brain will grow up very differently in a broken abusive home than the home of parents that push them towards medical or law school!
.
.
Psychopaths and Sociopaths.
.
ASPD type individuals
.We all see the classic Media portrayed Psychopath flying into an incandescent rage, knife in hand wildly stabbing.
.
But being a psychopath really means a lack of an ability to feel not only empathy for others but also any full intensity of emotion at all!
.
They are less emotional, and more rational and think more strategically and dispassionately that the rest of their fellow man.
.
Exactly the way a brilliant surgeons mind could work.
.
I am not saying that all good surgeons are psychopaths But
.
I am saying that if you are in medical school and are able to already see a fellow human body as a mere bioengineering problem to be fixed instead of having to “man up” when cutting into living flesh for the very first time, Then you will have a significant advantage over your none psychopathic fellow students!
.
.
BAD PSYCHOPATHS AND SOCIOPATHS!
.
Would fall into the,
.
“It is nothing personal it is just business”
category of person,
.
Saying the above when they are doing something terrible to you.
.
.
Hyper Empaths.
.
NO! Not a type of weird mutant comic book X-men thing,
.
But instead from a clinical perspective.
.
The exact opposite of Psychopaths.
.
They feel EVERYTHING!
.
They feel more and deeper and far more intensely.
.
They can not either help it or "Turn it off"
.
They cannot properly "Filter" their emotional input or output the way the rest of their fellow humans can!
.
(I heavily suspect I fall into this range.)
.
These sorts of people potentially make the best actors, writers artist and councillors.
.
.
BAD HYPER EMPATHS
.
These are the classic nut jobs stabbing people at random or going “Postal” in a classroom.
.
They unfortunately simply have never been given the proper guidance to help maintain proper emotional control and their rage becomes all-consuming!
.
.
CURSED OR BLESSED WITH BOTH!?
.
It may seem to counter-intuitive but there is a case for some to very rarely be “sorta” both
.
It is hard adequately explain without tuning a slightly glib blog article into to full-blown dull under qualified medical essay but I will try and finish some examples.
.
Basically, these are the leaders (both evil and good).
.
They are extremely empathic and can fully understand how you think and feel better than you know yourself, and still not be able to “give a dam” about you, despite that!
.
They feel strongly passionate enough to drive themselves to work to death because they care more deeply than others, to the point of getting emotional obsessive,
.
But
.
They are also able to make the horrendously immoral calls and decisions and sacrifices (both of other fellow humans and personally) for what they may see “As the greater good”,
.
.
THE GREATER GOOD?
.
What actually is “The greater good” will never really be known in our lifetime but can only be judged those give the perspective of history, and even then only with any a distance or a 100 years or more to give a decent chance of non-emotional analysis.
.
Be a bit cautious of all those (including myself, because I am certainly no saint) that claim domain overall knowledge of correct morality.
.
Anyone that arrogant and certain of themselves, with little or no self-doubt, will be just as willing to sacrifice You as themselves!
.
And they will not understand why your family have not wanted to thank them for giving you the “Gift” of being made into a “Martyr” or “War Hero”
.
Martyrs, War Heroes, Sacrifices, it all the same corpse and grieving family, the labels chosen are just a mere exercise in semantics.
.
.
REMEMBER!
.
Just because you are a Psychopath or Sociopath does not mean you have to be “Evil”
.
I often try and give examples of “Good” Nut Jobs,
.
Quite often it takes a psychopath or sociopath to do “What needs to be done” in circumstances that would permanently emotionally damage and scar a normal person.
.
If we grow in a loving non-abusive home, (Or are helped to rehabilitate) we can be your heros rather than your villains!
.
Because we can automatically be willing to make the cold, logical, emotional judgement calls that are sometimes, unfortunately, needed!
.
Humanity is a group, heard or pack species.
.
Like wolves, ants or antelope.
.
We have a specialised “Function” within the human herd, group or pack.
.
We are needed for humanity to survive itself.
.
.
NOTE:
.
By “Function” I am not implying any form of superiority or “Natural leadership” role.
.
We are most definitely NOT your “betters” or “Higher Human Caste”,
.
Humanity should have learned by now that we Nut Jobs should NEVER be allowed to be you, social leaders!
.
EVER!
.
When you have this “Disability” it is very easy to fall into this dangerous self-delusion in order to feel less inadequate and disconnected!
.
The
“I can not connect properly with these inferior puppets”
bullshit type thinking.
.
We are NOT superior we are merely Dysfunctional!
.
If we are anything, then we are instead, in many ways Inferior, to a normal person.
.
By “function”, I am thinking more along the lines of a temporary onsight captain in an emergency disaster situation, that is packed back away once the immediate emergency is over!
.
Nothing more!
.
I AM MERELY ONLY "TOTAL TOOL"!
.
It is very important to pack away all your “tools” when you no longer need them, until next time!
