Sometimes I wonder… why do we feel a strange connection with parts of the life of a serial killer? Is it curiosity, fear, or… empathy?

I'm watching it and I have to say that I enjoy it as a series.😂 In psychology it is said that we humans tend to have a part of us that thinks about harming, or even killing.This is good because we vent our thoughts But if we don't have this part of us in our heads, it's not a good thing 😂 Then obviously it also depends on the thoughts a person has, it's best to talk to a psychologist.

I can't really speak to anyone else subjective experiences. I think I can relate because I've had severe violent trauma, if my life had branched slightly differently I'd of been a serial killer or asynchronous to one; a great one too, meticulous, patient, can be charming. (edited)

We all have a dark, primitive side that just wants to break rules and act purely on selfish impulse, and the killer actually does that. Our fascination is essentially our normal, rule-following self being drawn to the killer's total, forbidden freedom. They achieved the dark things we were taught to suppress. So, it's not empathy for them, but a moment where we recognize and are curious about the destructive power we carry deep inside ourselves.

That's an interesting thought, Noérah. I believe empathy can really connect us to others, even those with dark experiences. It’s like we sense their pain on some level, even if we don’t agree with their actions.

No, people do value and appreciate these things. The only problem is that you expect people to appreciate YOU for those things. You base your identity too much on traits that are considered good and feel entitled to get a reward. Now, i see many women complain about the “nice guys”. How they... read more

Feeling extremely bad and lonely for some reason. Only thing I have ever learnt in this life is no matter how much you crave, nobody has an obligation to provide that warmth to you. It's not a bad realisation, it just feels that way to be on the receiving end of it. (edited)

Re-evaluation

Time to take another look at what I've been doing. It seems that everything I have done was for nothing. I still keep repeating the same patterns and people get hurt. I have to stop deluding myself and finally do something about this. It's already cost too much

Little "triad" test

Would you pass the test too ? (Link in the comments, not sure if it will be available) Honestly, I don't have a solid faith in charity. Instead of giving money, I'd rather share a meal, or give a helping hand directly.🤷‍♂️ (Which already happened when I could, years ago... )

Something New

It's time to try a new series of seals within my mind. I think I see where I went wrong last time so it's time for my heart to get a brand new seal. There is no fear in this decision which gives me hope, I think I understand what my next steps need to be.

What are the practical tools and techniques people use to manage the symptoms of PTSD day-to-day?

Are there specific apps, exercises, routines, or ways of thinking that help people feel better and stay functional despite the trauma? I don't need personal stories, just looking for practical implementation ideas. . Thanks
