    If you find yourself being overly empathetic in every day situations you may actually be a bit codependent in other aspects of your life, no judgement or anything just saying.

      Ah yes, showing empathy is actually a sign of mental illness, please provide anything resembling evidence for your claim, because I think its made the fuck up.

      Empathy is good and helps us cohere socially and understand each other, no empathy is bad and actually a sign of several personality disorders.

      You may want to concern yourself more with how you find yourself than how others find themselves, cuz I think you got it twisted

          So is lack of empathy a characteristic of dark triad personality disorder.

          I’d take 10000 Bipolar people, some of the most interesting and complex people I’ve ever met, over one NPD, someone who will ruin your life just to satiate their insatiable egos.

          Thanks for the link, I will put it to good use
