Hello I am psychopathic (aspd) trying to get closer to Jesus

[purehaggis]

Hi guys hope all is well! I’m new to Christianity so still learning everything, my biggest problem is I have 0 remorse and 0 empathy I lack any kind of love feeling also! Anyone else with similar problems to me? I have done horrible things in my life most people would be sick from the horrible stuff I have done “mainly as a child” I don’t want to be evil but at one point I was evil now all I want to be is good I want to get closer to god I want to help people I want to be a better person overall thanks

Love is about commitment to another's well being, which doesn't require a love feeling, or we would not be able to love our enemies.

Welcome to CF!

I suggest looking up the story of Steve Wood, the Christian psychopath, on YouTube. That may help you, as he tells his story and gives informative Q&A there. Welcome!

Hello & welcome @purehaggis.

Some churches are better than others at ministering to such conditions.
Check out these UK churches,

• Vineyard,
• Assembly of God,
• Foursquare Church

(Links above are locators.)
If these are not accessible, look for a church that includes a healing ministry.

Thank you for that info, what is the reason these churches are better for my problem? Do they do special training for mental health etc? Thanks

They have active healing ministries which extend to conditions like psychopathy, if sought out.
Not all churches believe that healing is for today.

Welcome to CF. My suggestion is to discuss this with a medical professional.

Did he? I just think comparing notes on the internet is not really recommended or healthy.
