I genuinely feel like no matter what I do, psychopaths can always pretty much immediately defect me as the perfect victim.

I think it’s partly because I’m ugly, partly because I’m sensitive, and they can just tell I’m a weak person.

It’s making my life a living hell, no matter how hard I try I just can’t blend it, I can’t force myself to act a certain way, it’s exhausting to me

Help…

    Idk. Like, interpersonal psychopaths don’t scare me as much cause I can always just ghost them for the most part.

    My issue is with workplace ones (cause it’s hard to find a good job) and also with the ones in my apartment complex. There’s no effing way it can be dealt with I’m just screwed.

      Workplace ones are awful, there’s loads of research showing bullies often go into management. Best way I’ve found to manage it is not to tell anyone I work with anything about me so they have nothing to use against me.

      Have you got much support in your life? If you’re missing a dad’s support you can find it at !dadforaminute@lemmy.world it’s great and supportive dad posters.

          I hear you. Counselling can really help, it helps you take control of your own life and reduce the amount of problems you have.
