Hi there. I have been struggling with my mental health for the past few years and I believe I’m depressed. Recently I was reading something about sociopaths and psychopaths and it dawned on me that I felt similar to those people.
- I find it hard to care about people and so often fake my feelings (I didn’t cry or get sad when my grandparent died)
- I find it hard to behave normally in public such as not knowing what an appropriate thing to say is or doing things people think are weird.
- I’m always bored
- I’m angry and get feelings that I want to punch people because they make me sad
- I’ve never been in a relationship with a girl and I’m 20
- insincere apologies
- I feel emotionless

I wish I was not this way. Even though I can blend in with people I feel like I live a double life as I have to make up feelings a lot or else people would think badly about me which I don’t want as I already struggle a great deal in getting along with people and making friends.

I’m not saved and I don’t know how I could be since if I can’t love/emotionally-connect to anyone that I can see how can I love someone I can’t see.

Do you think I am a psychopath? If yes how can I get better?
