Is it normal not to feel guilt?

Several times someone has tried to hurt me (or worse) and I have defended myself, perhaps a bit too vigorously. Afterwards I felt no guilt, pity, remorse or sorrow. The authorities never got involved. is it normal or could I be a psychopath?

      My cat has gained weight since getting his balls sliced out of his body.

        Yep, most animals get lazier after they've been fixed.

    Assuming your response wasn't way out of proportion to what was being done to you, I don't see that you have anything to feel guilty about. What does "too vigorously" mean: did you pull a gun & shoot someone who looked at you strangely or what?

      Let us just say that those people will never hurt any one ever again.

    Not feeling guilt over self defense - Normal
    Not feeling guilt over killing for no reason - Abnormal

    Big difference.

    It's normal. You probably just want to be a psychopath cos it's all the rage these days.

      Guilt is like a rocking horse, a lot of motion but it gets you nowhere.
