What is the psychological term for when someone feels no emotion?
I saw it on a CSI show once, and they used a term to describe how this boy felt no emotion what-so-ever (not anger, sadness, happiness, etc.). It came up in conversation earlier today and I cant remember the name of it. Could someone help me remember what its called? 10 points best answer :]
What does it mean psychologically when someone repeats after (echoes) you a lot in a conversation?
I started noticing this in a person at workplace (just echoeing one or two words as if he/she is mulling over them-even when they are something funny) . This person does not do that with other people. It's just me that gets echoed all the time. Beats me what this may signify. Any ideas?
Psychologically, how does it feel when someone steals from you?
Even when someone enters my car and takes change out of the little well in the console, I feel violated. ∠°)
How does it affect a person psychologically when someone imitates whatever they say or do constantly?
There can be two feelings one will get when they will see somebody imitating themIn terms of good feeling , it can be many ways .For example take punch lines ,you told some thing to somebody then he uses the same punch line to your friends in group then you can feel happy that he was using that same punch line to friends because you told him so ................In terms of bad feeling that you done some funny, or embarrassing thing unknowingly then somebody may seen and imitate you by repeating same things infront of some people or friends,just trying to make a joke in group using you , these type of things some can take lite let it pass and donot react violently and put some smile on face then they may stop because you are not caring about that....after that you will happy ....But in some cases if he/she is not stoping at all then naturally one emotion comes and take its path like scolding him or something counteracting by pressing on his weakness these are the some reactions one will get if they get imitated
I hit my dog. Am I a bad person? Do I have psychological problems? What Should I do?
I recently adopted a little puppy. We have been good friends and we bonded immediately. Today he made me mad and I hit him. I immediately felt horrible. After a few minutes I turned into a completely different person and did it again and again. The dog is fine and nothing bad happened to him. What scares me is what I did. I feel horrible I almost want to cry. I do not want this to happen again.
Psychology: Why do we feel bothered by a specific person?
Andi Alexander says it pretty well. It really does often come down to something you glean from their first impression on you, and many times it does have something to do with a behavior that you dislike in yourself that you see reflected. Another reasoning is there is something that they do that mirrors the behavior of someone you have had a negative experience with in the past. Even if it is pure coincidence, our brains take in vast amounts of information at a time, most of it is filtered as background noise and "disregarded". Which basically means that we are not consciously aware of it. There was a hypothesis about a few years back that stated that schizophrenics may not be able to sort out the irrelevant information in lieu for the relevant and it was causing some of their disconnect with the world as we knew it. I don't know where that hypothesis ended up in terms of schizophrenia, and I have also heard something similar for autistic people. Again, I have no idea where it ended up in practice, or if either hypothesis has any validity to it. My point is that our brains process far more information than we ever realize that they do, and first impressions of a person we are taking them aren't limited to what we see, there is far more going on in our own brains. If what we see lines up in some way with something that is earmarked as negative, then it could account for our negative first response. Couple that along with what Andi Alexander said about there being a trait that reminds us of something we dislike within ourselves, and that is a pretty good place to start. My apologies, but the comments for all of my content is currently turned off for the time being. If you need contact me regarding this answer, please leave a comment in the comment section of the question and I will check back.
How would the situation in description psychologically affect someone?
He would not feel welcome. By informing everyone of his actions you set up a huge web of people shaming him.I am not sure if he feels guilty, but he likely feels ashamed. Guilt comes from your own appraisal of yourself and Shane from outside appraisal.The difference between guilt and shame is that Shame doesn't differentiate between the act being bad and the person being bad. So he probably thinks he is just shit rather than looking deeper into why he cheated on you.Generally people don't care that much what happens in other people's relationships. So however scared of you and others you think he is, it's likely magnitudes more than that as he imagines it to match or be worse than his own bad feeling for himself.He would hate himself if he declined the invitation and would hate himself more for going. But I think you already knew that when you invited him. You wanted to hurt him, it would work.
