Is there a cure for Psychopaths?

 

unfortunately, there is no known cure for psychopathy.

 

we can't instill empathy to those who naturally don't have it.

@ Queen Darkeinjel- we do have several members here who are Psychiatrists, even a Neuro-Psych that i know of, but they all seem to be lying low. since i rarely handle psych cases, and its not a field i trained in, i do not dare give any advice....

Is there a cure for Psychopaths?

 

maybe i should have started by asking: are we talking about psychopathic tendencies in children or full blown clinically diagnosed psychopathy in adults (extreme or otherwise)?

 

in children exhibiting psychopathic tendencies who are diagnosed early, clinical experts can help them. these children may eventually grow into well rounded adults living full lives.

 

there are adults who can fall into the classification of psychopaths who live good lives. they are contributing members of the society. this may be/could be possible through consistent and regular therapy or consultation with a mental health professional/clinician.

 

for those who are labeled as being extreme psychopaths, which i assume is what you were referring to (those who are clearly lacking empathy, disregard rules, etc), there could be little that clinicians can do for them. as unfortunately, there is still no known cure for the disorder. therapy can be attempted, but it may only go so far. these people can fake concern or show signs of improvement in other aspects of the disorder.

 

however i suggest that you just don't take my word for it, all these of course are just hypothetical. in order for you to gain more insight, it would be better if you could bring that person to a mental health professional who could administer and evaluate the needed sets of psych tests. this will help in determining the extent of the disorder or even if is present in an individual. these mental health professionals could then give you proper steps and actions to take, treatments if there are any to help manage the condition.

 

good luck!

HI! Are there any Psychiatrists/Psychologists here? I just want to know how much do you usually charge and if consultation is a on-time thing or should cover a couple of sessions. I've been talking to my friends, and they advised me to seek professional help because i might be depressed.

Been there bro, seek upon the one who made everything "the Lord Jesus" and you will be set free, if you seek him genuinely and faithfully he will answer instantly.
