Psychological disorders made him a harasser

In the age of #moderntechnology, the phenomenon of #electronic_harassment has spread significantly. Social media and messaging applications have become a fertile environment for practicing this harmful behavior. Therefore, it is increasingly important to understand the psychology of #electronic_harassment and the motives behind this type of harassment, as it poses a psychological and social challenge, especially with the widespread spread of the Internet, in which we now live permanently in the digital age, which has made it easier for harassers to pursue their victims at all times and places. But what are the psychology and motives of the #electronic_harassment that lead him to such actions?

Psychological reasons play an important role in shaping the personality of the #harasser, as some people who practice #electronic_harassment suffer from psychological imbalances that affect their behavior, such as excessive narcissism, where the #electronic_harassor feels that he is a special person and better than others. He seeks the attention, praise, power, and pleasure that his narcissism requires. He may also suffer from a lack of self-confidence, a feeling of inferiority, and social isolation, which prompts him to #electronic_harassment as a way to compensate for these shortcomings and to feel illusory power and his pathological obsession with pursuing their victims.

Some electronic harassers may also resort to #electronic_harassment as a means of taking revenge on others or expressing their anger towards them, as they see it as a tool for revenge and causing harm and psychological damage.

On the other hand, psychology believes that sexual deprivation, which may result from delaying the age of marriage due to the high prices and high costs of dowries, is one of the most important motives behind #electronic_sexual_harassment, so young people resort to getting rid of this feeling by satisfying their sexual needs in the #virtual_world, knowing that it is an unhealthy and immoral method. .

As for social and environmental factors, they may affect the behavior of the electronic harasser. Because poor upbringing, social isolation, or exposure to violence in the past has an impact on his pattern of thinking and behavior and enhances the desire for revenge, especially with the inability to confront. What contributes to encouraging harassment is the harasser’s feeling that society blames and holds the victim responsible and blames her, which prompts the harasser to do his act without the slightest feeling of guilt in addition to the absence or lack of accountability.

 The absence of religious awareness, the collapse of the system of moral values, and societies’ adoption of new standards that differ from the traditional ones established in Arab societies, leads to a decline in the true meaning of religiosity and commitment, and an increase in #harassment, irresponsible handling of information, and the commission of unacceptable and offensive behavior towards others, believing that they are able to hide their true identity. Hiding behind screens will erase their sins and forgive and cover up their shameful and unpermissible actions according to Islamic law, religion, and morals.

 #Electronic_harassment may spread because harassers do not understand the negative psychological and emotional effects that victims may be exposed to. They may think that their actions are just a joke or a game without realizing the devastating impact they have on their victims.

 Furthermore, some people may exploit their technological knowledge and digital superiority to dominate and control others. They use #electronic_harassment as a tool for control, revenge, or to enhance their sense of power and superiority.

Finally, #electronic_harassment represents a serious phenomenon that requires a deep understanding of the psychology of #electronic_harassment. Dealing with this sensitive issue requires a comprehensive analysis of the environmental and social factors that lead to its spread. We must also realize that the #electronic_harassment is a person who suffers from a psychological and emotional imbalance and uses harassment as a means to fill his personal shortcomings and the negative feelings from which he suffers. Based on the principle of #Awareness_ProtectThem, we must enhance awareness and education about the effects of electronic harassment on victims and society in general.

 By believing in the importance of individuals’ rights and psychological well-being in the digital world and promoting a positive and ethical digital culture, we can confront this scourge.
