Borderline Personality Disorder and Lacking Empathy. Content Warning.
People love to ask the question 'Without empathy, how could we exist'? To those people, I have a simple reply - you do know that people who lack empathy exist right? People who lack compassion for their fellow man are not some fantasy creatures that only exist in fictional stories, sci-fi novels, or fantasy tomes - they exist in real life. Statistically speaking, if you walk by a certain number of people down the street on the way to work or pass by a certain number of individuals on your way home, you have probably passed by a few people with untreated mental illnesses associated with a lack of empathy & did not even know it. Now, I feel like this video can work to tell everyone watching about some of the different mental conditions associated with a lack of empathy and give you an idea of how these conditions operate, starting with one condition known as borderline personality disorder!
