Hi, I’m sorry if you don’t want to talk abt it, but being a dark empath doesn’t always mean you’re an abuser, It may also mean you can understand others' emotions without felling them yourself. Example: if a person is sad you will sense they’re sad but won’t feel sad yourself, or won’t feel remorse for them

with all due respect, that just describes someone who's good at reading people and has low empathy. which are both actually extremely common symptoms of several real, diagnosable conditions, such as npd, aspd or autism

#🫀.inbox #🎙️.will #I'm of the strong personal belief that like 80% of people who insist narcissistic abuse is real are actually npd themselves #in my entire life I've never really understood the use of the term “empath”#it certainly has no clinical usage and honestly just seems like something people made up to set themselves higher than low empathy people #I'm basing all of this on my mother and similar people in our life #who claim to be “empaths” but have never once actually known what is going on with us #and just use the labels “empath” and “narcissist” as replacements for “good person” and “abusive person”#sorry if this comes of as argumentative but I have a lot of experience in the psychology world #and I don't really care for pop psychology buzzword culture
