Comment on Do you ever worry that you're secretly a psychopath that unknowingly manipulates people around you?
astraeus@programming.dev 8 months agoI relate to this. People who know me know that my thoughts and the things I say can be quite challenging. I’ve never been one to simply accept what’s considered acceptable. I always question everything, I’m always thinking about how things can change and be different.
I’m always hoping to help people see what can improve their lives, but sometimes it’s not our place to say things or do things to help other people like that. A lot of people don’t want someone who can see their weakness and try to show them a way to improve, it’s demeaning and insulting to most people.
I’ve always tried to have a positive outlook on constructive criticism, but what constitutes constructive criticism and something further is a lot different for one person than it is for the next.

Hey, not diagnosing or anything, but maybe give my other comment a once-over and see if it resonates at all.

It’s almost a guarantee that I have some form of ADHD.
