I'm curious to know how you would describe someone with severe mental disorder and prone to violent episodes, but one that can also blend in without even hinting their darker side. Those around them unsuspecting of their most evil doings.
But based on that, any serial killer, murderer or rapist that is driven by a sexual drive, or euphoria or any other feeling, emotion or state of mind is not a psychopath.
Is that correct? If that is the case, your understanding is terrifying. That said, can you name someone you consider a psychopath? Because I really want to know what defines the line of psychopathy for you.
Because the latter is far more complex than the simplified definition anyone can get from a google search; psychopathy has layers upon layers of depth, each case its own world of insane, driven and acted upon varying triggers.
