YouTube Description
as posted by the channel1. They do not exist to start with. They can assume anyone’s identity with ease and to perfection, but then they are possessed by the character. They do not feel or know that they are acting. They believe their own confabulated narrative;
2. They feel more comfortable in fantasy than in reality;
3. Internal audiencing (imaginary audience) and self-supply (personal fable);
4. They have been rehearsing all their lives essentially the same lines;
5. They are charismatic, energetic (driven, addicted), and confident;
6. Cold empathy.
