🔥Thread on having too much empathy 🧵: why can having too much empathy be bad for society, cause health professionals or autistic people to get into trouble? Some examples from my career: Having too much empathy can blind you to common sense & reason. For example, one person
May Feel entitled to doxx others for their activist ‘empathy’, when not deserved. an autistic teenager starts bringing home stray cats and eventually a homeless male stranger placing herself in danger, a therapist allows her teen client to stay at her place overnight and faces
investigation disciplinary action & supervision, serial killers have fans who believe in the rehabilitation/rescuing and fall in love with them, the abused stay in abuse cycles because they fell sorry for their abusers traumatic childhood. Highly empathise people when
swayed by emotion can make
Illogical mistakes, causing harm to themselves or others. These are just a few examples of why having too much empathy is not a good thing. Do you have any? #toomuchempathy #EQ #SQ #empathy #psychology #safetyfirst

The ‘eyes’ thread for beginners 101: Many people are finding my ‘eyes’ tweets helpful, interesting, fascinating & disturbing. I was trained in this during my post-Masters externship. As the world deteriorates & more people become harmful, it is imperative you learn
about the eyes, facial affect or expressions, inappropriate facial affect that does not match content & context, #bodylanguage & forensic statement analysis. People cannot control their #subconscious behaviors & words, ‘leaking’ out #psychological information about themselves
This is known as ‘leakage’. First off, non verbal body language including the eyes & statement analysis is not something the ‘subject’ can control. This is ‘leakage’ or ‘tells’. The first thing you need to do is study 7 basic #emotions & what true facial expressions look like.
