My father was the sociopath. Absolutely charming to everyone he met, until his anger was piqued and then he would get violently angry. With me, he literally picked me up off the floor and through me against the wall, numerous times throughout my life. I am so glad I got away from my family, who would not, could not, see this enormous elephant in the room. I was so relieved.to be able to move somewhere I could change my name and not be harmed by them ever again.
My dad is somewhat like this...but he doesnt fit the "charming" trait. He is very antisocial, he doesnt talk to my mom, my brother or me. He always has this angry and annoyed face and anytime he does talk he speaks down to us. What could he have?
If you need help with healing your soul I recommend you look up Sandra Brown and The Institute for Relational Harm Reduction. You will find UA-cam videos and a Facebook page where you might have the opportunity to communicate with Sandra. She runs a retreat for ladies. Forgive me because I didn't look at your name before replying to your comment and I don't know if you are male or female. I think it's fantastic that you were able to get away from him. I hesitate to call him your dad because he didn't treat you as a dad should. I'm glad you recognize that you deserve better. It's very hard for children of sociopaths and narcissists to recognize their worth and break free.
my father is like that too :/ and the worst thing you can do is to feel sorry for them, they are just spoiled and never learned, it was indeed very hard for me to recognize my worth im still struggeling, im still not very good at putting myself out there
You'd be surprised... Some people who have no empathy have a scary capacity to lie and manipulate that seems unreal. I know because because it took almost 12 yrs b4 i realized my husband was a sociopath
I believe my ex friend is a sociopath because when she done something wrong to me she never once apologize for her wrong doings and was always about her because definitely a manipulative person to so definitely going to watch out for those kind of people.
Dumbest shit I've ever heard. I try to co parent with my ex the best I can. She's the one that wants the control all the time. I've never asked for more than 50/50. I rarely even try to argue with her dumb ass. She's never accused me of being a bad parent or husband either. She just thinks I'm suppose to think like her all the time and just agree with whatever she wants.
@@selinaogorman8380 I've been manipulated by tons of people, and they weren't sociopaths. They were "normal" people just like you claim to be. Anyone can feel no empathy when they don't like you, and do the same exact shit you think only sociopaths do.
Mr. Brown I have a friend with Borderline personality disorder. She is married to my best friend, who i call my brother, he has to stay because of their son. I am the only person that has maintained a friendship with her so i can't just walk away, I have to much empathy. I am convinced she is also a narcissist, the compulsive lying, manipulating, self centered, entitled, extreme dramatics, extreme emotional poor me behaviors are so horrible. If there is anyway you can get out of that relationship, seriously run & don't look back!! Personality disorders can't be fixed!!
Lisa G. Not true actually. I was diagnosed with BPD when I turned 18. At first I was totally unaware of the chaos I was causing and the people I was hurting mostly because I was in a state of emotional overreacting all the time. Finally I had enough of hurting those around me and myself, I enrolled in DBT. 3 years of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and in don't fit the criteria anymore and I am well on my way to becoming a Forensic Psychologist to work with many people who do have personality disorders. BPD can actually be treated, managed to a point that I can have healthy long term relationships with honesty and willingness. Also studies have shown BPD can get better with age unlike ASPD.
I fell in love with a friend I had known for a year. Into our relationship he found out he had anti social personality disorder and adult adhd. I found out that he was also seeing men and women behind my back and was using me the entire time. He was my first love and I had to walk away from that toxic man and ended up in counselling. It's not worth your peace of mind. if you find out your partner has this, you need to do the right thing for you.
aspd is something that can become embedded in your personality due to lifelong abuse, which is what happened to me. i can't feel remorse or guilt, i've stolen things, threatened people and started fights based on a whim. But I treat my partners right in the sense that even though i cant comprehend or understand certain aspects of other people's emotions, by and large i've had to teach myself a moral compass from the ground-up and be conscious of it every day. it kinda sucks though. especially bc a fundamental aspect of this mental illness is the inability to form close, meaningful, emotional connections. it becomes a lonely way of living after a while - which leads to a lot of people with aspd having depression and anxiety. btw, this disorder is still a mental health issue, and not everyone with it is abusive.
i've seen some characteristics in me due to abuse, but i have not let that alter the course of my personality. ask yourself if you treat your partners right is it because you love them or is it because it's beneficial to you? bare in mind that as much as it may be exhausting for you to be conscious of it everyday it is also exhausting and draining for your partner as well.
My ex bf was a sociopath..and when u love this person deeply but u know u cannot be with them cause' everything that they do is going to affect u in the end....it really hurts so bad ...

No wonder why we think society is pure bullshit
Thiago Lomonaco a sociopath is just an apathic penis. They like to fuck people with no emotions. But it doesn't mean they are evil. Non-emotional vaginas are what you have to watch out for. The vajayjay is kuray cray!
Redditor what is a person with no feelings or emotions called or diagnosed I find myself in a state of feeling as if I took a bunch of anti anxiety pills or bipolar pills never able to feel and in a constant state of Boredom I thought it was a sociopath etc but I’m never genuinely angry
I think what people forget is that those with APD still want relationships, they just don’t NEED others emotionally the way other people do. There seems to often been an emptiness and sense of aloneness and inability to connect easily and meaningfully, so I believe people with APD crave companionship in a way they just know they can survive without it. I think this is a leftover from some profound and deeply useful survival mechanisms. Not being emotionally dependent on others can give you an edge, and not being controlled by the vagaries of emotions: these probably lead to the strongest warriors and fiercest survivors in our history. The modern shift to valuing feelings and empathy has demonized what often functions as an invulnerability.
They only talk about the ones who have other issues too that have nothing to do with being a sociopath. Yeah, they might have less empathy, but that doesn't mean they're sick and fuckin twisted like everyone wants to believe. I don't think about killing people, raping people, fuckin dead bodies. lol That's just weird to me. I don't really like to fight either with people and like compromise. I can get a fuckin attitude, but so can everyone else. I don't go around preying on people either like people try to say we do. I honestly just want to be left alone the majority of the time, like relationships, but don't need a ton of friends, and would love to find a female who isn't fucked up in the head. I don't believe they exist though, but then they have the nerve to talk about us. lol I think everyone is fucked up in the head to a point. We all lack something. I like not being as empathetic as most people, but I do have empathy for people I'm close to. Not so much for strangers. You won't see me crying when someone I don't know dies. Won't see me crying when I meet a famous person either. lol They are just people to me.
My ex fiance was a full blown sociopath everyyyyyone loved him so sweet till hed snap over dumbest shit n go full blown crashed a car with me in it tried killing people after 9 years i gave up on his cheating lying ass
I once dated someone who was a sociopath; he was living a double life he deceived me and at the end I found it he even lied about he’s ethnicity. Lord knows I hate him
Sum Asian - Any time we get close with the wrong person, there’s always serious things that can happen, like having a kid with the wrong person (I don’t see it as JUST a sociopath thing). And if a man is getting angry and messing with a girl, that’s abusive... period.
Em J - I don’t like to put labels on anyone, unless they are diagnosed with the dis order. And disability or disorder is something people can’t help (like being deaf or blind), so I don’t like to put a label on anyone, like sociopath (anti-social personality disorder), the correct word/phrase is mean and abusive, which anyone can be mean and abusive (sociopath or not), anything can happen (sociopath or not). I believe everyone is capable of feeling guilt and remorse (were all human beings, were not robots), a “Sociopath” isn’t retarded, they are fully aware of what they are doing and they have emotions (we are all made/built with emotions).
I have all traits related to a sociopath. That is why I'm searching on the internet constantly to search if the things I feel or do is normal. And most of the traits match up. I lie, I can manipulate people by observing their weaknesses to get something or just for fun. I did have something like that when I dated 5 girls at one time . They still haven't found out about it and I'm sure they won't. I don't feel emotionally attached to anything or anyone but only to someone close example if I saw a woman dead on the street i would help her but, I wouldn't feel emotionally pity or sad for her but I just know that I have to do that cause its correct thing to do. I don't like socializing and I feel different or that's what is normal scientifically but I really don't feel emotional towards things I just think logically.
ASPD isn't a life long prison sentence, yes at the time of diagnosis it may not be a good idea to be intimately involved with other people but if you have aspd and you are seeing this, do not lose hope, you're not beyond help. ~~~~~~~~~By giving yourself into therapy for your condition you're already working your way out of this functionally. Remember the only behaviour you're at fault for is from now, work to change that behaviour.
The ratio of male sociopaths to female sociopaths is about 20:1. That being said, the title of this video says "Your Partner". The thumbnail says "Your boyfriend" because the clip is about a woman's boyfriend being a sociopath.
Dear commenters, Just because your ex was mean to you or cheated, does not make them a psychopath or sociopath. You are not a doctor. A doctor knows those aren’t even diagnoses, currently. Now please be quiet. Maybe s/he just wasn’t a nice person. Lots of mean people, relatively few psychopaths.
My sister is a sociopath. She only showed her true self, fully to me. I being the youngest sibling, robbed her of being the center of attention. In her own words, her life would be perfect if not for me. So, she actively tried to get rid of me. I've always felt bad for her friend's and partner's. When I was young, I tried to warn some of my sisters, nicer friends. However, they already were being told an alternate story. That I really was this "Golden child" stealing all the attention. So, most were horrible to me. I got an email, probably a decade later, from one of her friends. She apologized, for the way that she treated me, and that she didn't understand. She said, was embarrassed for mistreated myself, and mother. That she didn't expect to hear back from me, but wanted to to apologize.
I dated a phycopath once.... It is no walk in the park by any means but i saw it as them having a mental illness. Plus i have depression so i really dont want to discredit a potential partner because they are "crazy".I think he thought that because i was open about being depressed that i would be easy to manipulate but he was mistaken.I easily saw through his bullshit ,his bad acting ,and his fake friendliness that other people accepted from him.I saw all the fake smiles, the fake emotion in the voice, the lies and I called him out on it the minute he tried it on me. He grew to understand that i wasnt an easy person to manipulate which made him i guess respect me more and treat me like an equal.psychopaths are not nearly as scary as society ,movies and media leads you to believe if you know how to deal with them and dont let your feelings get in the way.Despite all the bullshit , i was fine most days and enjoyed the relationship while it lasted.lol
I'm confused... so I don't generally have a lot of friends and I don't go out much, simply because I like to have time for myself, and time for my boyfriend. So some people may consider me "antisocial." But that doesn't make me a Sociopath, does it? I do feel guilty If I did or said something wrong,(not that I do often), I do have sympathy, and am very faithful to my partner.
That doctor in the middle is saying that it wasn't the woman's fault at all. So you are telling me it's all the man's fault?! There's 24 hours in a day. The woman could have used some of that time to CATCH her two timing boyfriend! My God some people and their blameless lives! No wonder people don't want to take responsibility for their own lives and the way it's turned out!
Why Do you need to know! Much smarter and safer to get as far away from that person as possible - do everything you legally can to get his parental rights severed. He isn’t worth “catching” at all!!
I know a sociopath and he has a son, I stalked the ex’s page (she’s married to someone else and has a new kid who’s not his), so I trust him that he wouldn’t be with her and he was a charmer, but he’s NEVER mentioned marriage day 1. He’s mentioned moving in RIGHT away, which I thought was creepy, but then he litteraly told me, “Gotta see how it works living together before hand,” he also litterally showed me who he was from the get go, that he has money problems, never lied about it and he litterally told me, “Are you okay with seeing how things go and just hooking up for now,” so that’s pretty straight forward to me, but he sucks at communicating when things don’t go his way. Although, he’s told me he wants to be with me too and he sounded DEAD serious. Then we got an apartment, he gave me keys, I found out he had another girl (he wasn’t with) sign, but he kept saying, “I just needed extra income. Move the fuck in and let me handle the rest!” Then at the end of the messy apartment situation, I was mad, so I said, “I’m gonna go hook up with a guy friend.” (I shouldn’t say that either, goes BOTH ways). He litterally told me, “Fine. I’ll go hook up with Melissa (other girl on lease), she can do (this- something sexual he wanted from me, but wasn’t getting),” that’s pretty honest and straight forward that he’s saying, “I cheated cuz I didn’t get what I wanted,” basically. A sociopath won’t be so honest, they play games, but their not a little honest. And that’s a ANY guy thing, to cheat cuz their not getting something they want. 2 months later, I tried to talk to him to get my things back from the apartment, he goes, “Hey Jenny. I’m in a happy relationship now. I don’t need u txting me,” now he says, “Cut the b.s. or i’m leaving for good this time,” to me, I know the guy, he plays games when things don’t go his way, so for him to say, “I’m in a happy relationship,” I read in between the lines and figured he’s trying to tell me in his way, he cheated cuz he wasn’t happy and he left cuz he wasn’t happy- hence the, “Cut the b.s.” Doesn’t sound like he has anything to hide.
You’re in danger and don’t even know it. He’s not being honest. He’s manipulating and gaslighting you into oblivion. Just the little you’ve told here says he’s extremely psychologically abusive.
This statement is correct, mostly. Psychopathy is based in genetics, though the behavioral expression (the “phenotype” if you will) will be determined by upbringing/environment. Sociopathy is largely created by environment, not genetics. Thus, sociopaths still have some emotion, but it’s highly suppressed, except for often angry outbursts (different from psychopaths). Sociopathy is really ‘secondary psychopathy,’ the hallmark of which is impulsive/aggressive behavior where the hallmark of psychopathy is fearless dominance. Both share a shallow affect, lack of emotional empathy, etc. Neither personality disorder term should be confused with ASPD, which is a behavioral disorder characterized by criminality, lack of empathy and remorse, and manipulative behavior. There’s a reason psychopathy/sociopathy are not in the DSM5. They aren’t really disorders in many people (they don’t produce danger, distress, dysfunction, etc, in people’s lives). When psychopathy/sociopathy do produce danger/distress/dysfunction/etc, through behaviors, then you diagnose ASPD.
Ok, but when we feel love towards certain people like in my case...family and my girlfriend...I feel NO need to physically hurt them whatsoever. If anything I’m against that because of my fathers past domestic abuse to my mother. BUT, I will admit I have emotionally hurt them. Which sucks to think about but I sometimes do it with no intention. Goes to show we’re not totally crazy 😏 Why do people assume we’re not capable of being in a healthy relationship? Like we can’t carry one on at all....I personally tell my girlfriend what I feel towards her and that helps us end lots of arguments by talking it out and analyzing why both of us said shit and what not.
WOW!! Are Sociopaths and Narcissists pretty much the same? My husband is one or both. I just let him be alone when he's acting strange. I have too much of a vested interest in this relationship to leave.
Difference is narcissist cares too much about other people's admiration, and can have low self esteem. Sociopaths don't care at all if people admire them
Sooooo, there's a lot of good information in these replies except the guy that said "they are very different". The difference in narcissist and sociopath are narcissis tend to act more like Donald Trump. And sociopaths tend to act more like Bill Clinton. I don't know if Bill Clinton is a sociopath but when he speaks he just kind of he gives that, charismatic full of shit, I'm better than everyone demeanor. Sociopaths tend to complement and make their victims feel great because when they do they're more easily manipulated. Sociopaths and narcissists both lie compulsively. Whenever their lips are moving their lying. They both have grandiose senses of self. They're both shallow and see people as objects.
The difference between a normal person and a sociopath, is that the normal person can control some things...... :)) While sociopaths can't realize that their ends to the means are somewhat destructive ;)
I know why I said that sociopaths can't control their destructive ways, as I had sociopathic tendencies (for close the 1 decade) that psychologists said that there is a problem with me.... Thing is I realize that I should not act apon them, even if they are fair game to me :) at that moment..... :p Trust me I have been diagnosed with this disorder, and it rears it's head from time to time with some "actions" that i cringe to say what they are....but I haven't acted on them for a very long time....And don't plan to ever again.
The difference between a normal person and a sociopath is conscience.. Those with sociopathy don't have a conscience, or empathy meaning they don't feel regret or a range of other emotions (including love) and they don't care how other people feel
This lady is pretty misinformed with psychopathy and Aspd. If you want to know about these constructs and their differences I’d recommend you look into Dr. Todd Grande and his explanations of them.
i’m no sociopath, however i should be, by the way my birth giver dragged me up, google me Joe Peters. Author, my younger brother thomas is psychopath tried killing me, as i battling my demons and went on to write books and help others, spiritual person I am as you see from channel, we don’t turn out bad.... i’m made it x.I went onto write best selling books, Cry Silent Tea and a second book Cry Myself to Sleep. I have now work in spiritual forgiveness and healing.
Can I ask how to live with someone who has antisocial personality where it does not mentaly affect in any kind of way because of the things an actings they are capable or saying or doing to a person. And living with someone who has this how does it affect their partner in the long run what happens to them mentally.
i hate how every one paints a sociopath to be monsters like they dont deserve love and there just poison truth is they need love to maybe even more then your avrage person because these people have been abused to a point of numbness and death from within ppl tell you to keep walking by. and thats the best thing todo like its the right thing to do.. whos really the monster here?.. would you walk by a dog or cat or w/e that was on the side of the road on the break of dying no dont bother its a waste of time just walk away keep going forget about it lol... thats my logic yes im a sociopath i believe love can save a sociopath its hard but can be done you can change a sociopath if you can make him realize the love and emotions he locked away because it hurt to much in his or her pass you have to actually touch there soul and maybe they will give you there heart fr but both partys have to commit to it esp the sociopath he or she has to beaware of what there dealing with and not try to use the knowledge to hide them selfs better but instead understand them selfs better and do some real soul searching and mental and emotional exercises.. a socio path can feel and love its not going to be a big cofettie pop when it happens but with time and pratice they can improve there emotions maybe even become normal again
I think it's a little dangerous for unqualified people (like the people in the comments) to diagnose people with personality disorders. No, your 'ex' isn't necessarily a sociopath just because they weren't nice to you.
Alot of peoples exes are considered sociopaths or narcissists, break ups aren't amicable for a reason. Currently going through one, I went down the my ex is a sociopath route , done alot of self reflection but it just seems all a bit easy to diagnose people as such, as you say.
Are you guys talking about my life?!! Because it sounds like mine... exactly the same. Yes that's what my therapist said! We need to cut the relationship immediately NO JOKE!!! No other choices for THIS VERY SPECIAL CASE. But sadly here in my country, people believe in ghosts more than psychopaths. They believe in Genduruwo, and they underestimate 'psychopats and friends'. We also can say that a cheater can be MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER than a psychopath. Because a cheater doesnt always have to be a psychopath. But psychopath/sociopath is a cheater, and a thief, a kidnapper, a terrorist, a professor, a teacher, a genius.
Wait so they had a baby together. I don't understand how leaving someone especially after having their child, is a good solution! It's not like he was hitting or abusing her. Was he?! Okay so what if he was married?! Now it's HIS turn to make a choice... his new family or his previous one.
Why Do you need to know! Seriously?? Sociopaths ARE abusers, in every way possible. They are also malignant narcissists who are extremely dangerous to be around, no way to raise a child!!
I got my lifelong brain injury and trauma induced scoliosis from one because I cannot carry any more children and I refused to marry him. I got out, and have never looked back since!!
Sociopaths do abuse. I guarantee if he wasn't abusing her physically, he was abusing her mentally and emotionally and maybe even verbally. Any clues she would have found that lead to him leading a double life would have been covered up because sociopaths are great at manipulation.
Why should she stay with someone that she can't trust. Trust is a very important thing in a relationship. Anyways he could have more secrets so its better she leaves before things get worse.

I can get a fuckin attitude, but so can everyone else. I don't go around preying on people either like people try to say we do. I honestly just want to be left alone the majority of the time, like relationships, but don't need a ton of friends, and would love to find a female who isn't fucked up in the head. I don't believe they exist though, but then they have the nerve to talk about us. lol I think everyone is fucked up in the head to a point. We all lack something. I like not being as empathetic as most people, but I do have empathy for people I'm close to. Not so much for strangers. You won't see me crying when someone I don't know dies. Won't see me crying when I meet a famous person either. lol They are just people to me.
Even if they are a doctor, anti social people must be left alone! RUN!
My ex fiance was a full blown sociopath everyyyyyone loved him so sweet till hed snap over dumbest shit n go full blown crashed a car with me in it tried killing people after 9 years i gave up on his cheating lying ass
I once dated someone who was a sociopath; he was living a double life he deceived me and at the end I found it he even lied about he’s ethnicity. Lord knows I hate him
yall are really out here talking like we're weapons of mass destruction and not individuals its so odd its funny
Sum Asian - Any time we get close with the wrong person, there’s always serious things that can happen, like having a kid with the wrong person
(I don’t see it as JUST a sociopath thing).
And if a man is getting angry and messing with a girl, that’s abusive... period.
Em J - I don’t like to put labels on anyone, unless they are diagnosed with the dis order. And disability or disorder is something people can’t help
(like being deaf or blind),
so I don’t like to put a label on anyone, like sociopath
(anti-social personality disorder),
the correct word/phrase is mean and abusive, which anyone can be mean and abusive (sociopath or not),
anything can happen
(sociopath or not).
I believe everyone is capable of feeling guilt and remorse
(were all human beings, were not robots),
a “Sociopath”
isn’t retarded, they are fully aware of what they are doing and they have emotions
(we are all made/built with emotions).
You are though
You're not a sociopath you pathetic cringelord, you think you're edgy nut you're really not. I bet you sat at the back of the clas.
I have all traits related to a sociopath. That is why I'm searching on the internet constantly to search if the things I feel or do is normal. And most of the traits match up. I lie, I can manipulate people by observing their weaknesses to get something or just for fun. I did have something like that when I dated 5 girls at one time . They still haven't found out about it and I'm sure they won't. I don't feel emotionally attached to anything or anyone but only to someone close example if I saw a woman dead on the street i would help her but, I wouldn't feel emotionally pity or sad for her but I just know that I have to do that cause its correct thing to do. I don't like socializing and I feel different or that's what is normal scientifically but I really don't feel emotional towards things I just think logically.
Shut up clown, you're not a sociopath you're a loser.
hey man..i feel the same..how’re you?
ASPD isn't a life long prison sentence, yes at the time of diagnosis it may not be a good idea to be intimately involved with other people but if you have aspd and you are seeing this, do not lose hope, you're not beyond help. ~~~~~~~~~By giving yourself into therapy for your condition you're already working your way out of this functionally. Remember the only behaviour you're at fault for is from now, work to change that behaviour.
Why isn't it my is my girlfriend a sociopath too just not boyfriend?
The ratio of male sociopaths to female sociopaths is about 20:1. That being said, the title of this video says "Your Partner". The thumbnail says "Your boyfriend" because the clip is about a woman's boyfriend being a sociopath.
What a silly question.
Dear commenters, Just because your ex was mean to you or cheated, does not make them a psychopath or sociopath. You are not a doctor. A doctor knows those aren’t even diagnoses, currently. Now please be quiet. Maybe s/he just wasn’t a nice person. Lots of mean people, relatively few psychopaths.
My sister is a sociopath. She only showed her true self, fully to me. I being the youngest sibling, robbed her of being the center of attention. In her own words, her life would be perfect if not for me. So, she actively tried to get rid of me. I've always felt bad for her friend's and partner's. When I was young, I tried to warn some of my sisters, nicer friends. However, they already were being told an alternate story. That I really was this "Golden child" stealing all the attention. So, most were horrible to me. I got an email, probably a decade later, from one of her friends. She apologized, for the way that she treated me, and that she didn't understand. She said, was embarrassed for mistreated myself, and mother. That she didn't expect to hear back from me, but wanted to to apologize.
My ex husband was a sociopath.
These people are out there, and one of them is President of the United States.
Trust me, I’m married to one of these people and your president is not even close to having these people traits.
I dated a phycopath once.... It is no walk in the park by any means but i saw it as them having a mental illness. Plus i have depression so i really dont want to discredit a potential partner because they are "crazy".I think he thought that because i was open about being depressed that i would be easy to manipulate but he was mistaken.I easily saw through his bullshit ,his bad acting ,and his fake friendliness that other people accepted from him.I saw all the fake smiles, the fake emotion in the voice, the lies and I called him out on it the minute he tried it on me. He grew to understand that i wasnt an easy person to manipulate which made him i guess respect me more and treat me like an equal.psychopaths are not nearly as scary as society ,movies and media leads you to believe if you know how to deal with them and dont let your feelings get in the way.Despite all the bullshit , i was fine most days and enjoyed the relationship while it lasted.lol
I am glad I never met and individual I spoke to, we have never met, and he already said he love me and miss me.
Yes he is. Charming as fcuk with everyone else but a real charmer with me. No point in telling anyone, noone would believe me.
I'm confused... so I don't generally have a lot of friends and I don't go out much, simply because I like to have time for myself, and time for my boyfriend. So some people may consider me "antisocial." But that doesn't make me a Sociopath, does it? I do feel guilty If I did or said something wrong,(not that I do often), I do have sympathy, and am very faithful to my partner.
Your just an introvert☺
Thank you! I've always wanted to ask that question. I'm also an introvert!
A huge difference between a sociopath and an introvert
this is called cheating. these people don't know what a sociopath is
Thank you for this video.
I know a bunch of doctors that are diagnosed sociopaths...
That doctor in the middle is saying that it wasn't the woman's fault at all. So you are telling me it's all the man's fault?! There's 24 hours in a day. The woman could have used some of that time to CATCH her two timing boyfriend! My God some people and their blameless lives! No wonder people don't want to take responsibility for their own lives and the way it's turned out!
Why Do you need to know! Much smarter and safer to get as far away from that person as possible - do everything you legally can to get his parental rights severed. He isn’t worth “catching” at all!!
How do you tell if its narcissist or sociopath or can they be both?
I know a sociopath and he has a son, I stalked the ex’s page
(she’s married to someone else and has a new kid who’s not his),
so I trust him that he wouldn’t be with her and he was a charmer, but he’s NEVER mentioned marriage day 1. He’s mentioned moving in RIGHT away, which I thought was creepy, but then he litteraly told me,
“Gotta see how it works living together before hand,”
he also litterally showed me who he was from the get go, that he has money problems, never lied about it and he litterally told me,
“Are you okay with seeing how
things go and just hooking up for now,”
so that’s pretty straight forward to me, but he sucks at communicating when things don’t go his way. Although, he’s told me he wants to be with me too and he sounded DEAD serious. Then we got an apartment, he gave me keys, I found out he had another girl
(he wasn’t with)
sign, but he kept saying,
“I just needed extra income. Move the fuck in and let me handle the rest!”
Then at the end of the messy apartment situation, I was mad, so I said,
“I’m gonna go hook up with a guy friend.”
(I shouldn’t say that either, goes BOTH ways).
He litterally told me,
“Fine. I’ll go hook up with Melissa
(other girl on lease),
she can do
(this- something sexual he wanted from me, but wasn’t getting),”
that’s pretty honest and straight forward that he’s saying,
“I cheated cuz I didn’t get what I wanted,”
basically.
A sociopath won’t be so honest, they play games, but their not a little honest.
And that’s a ANY guy thing, to cheat cuz their not getting something they want.
2 months later, I tried to talk to him to get my things back from the apartment, he goes,
“Hey Jenny. I’m in a happy relationship now. I don’t need u txting me,”
now he says,
“Cut the b.s. or i’m leaving for good this time,”
to me, I know the guy, he plays games when things don’t go his way, so for him to say,
“I’m in a happy relationship,”
I read in between the lines
and figured he’s trying to tell me in his way, he cheated cuz he wasn’t happy and he left cuz he wasn’t happy- hence the,
“Cut the b.s.”
Doesn’t sound like he has anything to hide.
Honey he manipulated you so much.. and the fact that's he is kind of honest does not make up for the fact that he was mean mean to you...
You’re in danger and don’t even know it. He’s not being honest. He’s manipulating and gaslighting you into oblivion. Just the little you’ve told here says he’s extremely psychologically abusive.
All I realized is that Im a sociopath
Do you even care? You’ll still lie and hurt everyone around you
My child father is
I feel like they are talking about me
everything theyve said is my bf except double life and cheating
Get real people!!! Coparent? These people always charm their way = They. WIN. Custody. Battles.
Run.
Sociopaths are made and psychopaths are born
theres really no convincing evidence to prove that
Art V. It’s a fact
Art V. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/5979198/Psychopaths-are-born-not-bred-according-to-a-new-study.html
This statement is correct, mostly. Psychopathy is based in genetics, though the behavioral expression (the “phenotype” if you will) will be determined by upbringing/environment.
Sociopathy is largely created by environment, not genetics. Thus, sociopaths still have some emotion, but it’s highly suppressed, except for often angry outbursts (different from psychopaths).
Sociopathy is really ‘secondary psychopathy,’ the hallmark of which is impulsive/aggressive behavior where the hallmark of psychopathy is fearless dominance. Both share a shallow affect, lack of emotional empathy, etc.
Neither personality disorder term should be confused with ASPD, which is a behavioral disorder characterized by criminality, lack of empathy and remorse, and manipulative behavior. There’s a reason psychopathy/sociopathy are not in the DSM5. They aren’t really disorders in many people (they don’t produce danger, distress, dysfunction, etc, in people’s lives). When psychopathy/sociopathy do produce danger/distress/dysfunction/etc, through behaviors, then you diagnose ASPD.
Ok, but when we feel love towards certain people like in my case...family and my girlfriend...I feel NO need to physically hurt them whatsoever. If anything I’m against that because of my fathers past domestic abuse to my mother. BUT, I will admit I have emotionally hurt them. Which sucks to think about but I sometimes do it with no intention. Goes to show we’re not totally crazy 😏 Why do people assume we’re not capable of being in a healthy relationship? Like we can’t carry one on at all....I personally tell my girlfriend what I feel towards her and that helps us end lots of arguments by talking it out and analyzing why both of us said shit and what not.
WOW!! Are Sociopaths and Narcissists pretty much the same? My husband is one or both. I just let him be alone when he's acting strange. I have too much of a vested interest in this relationship to leave.
NOPE, leave.
They are very different
Most sociopaths can lead normal lives. Either way, don’t be alarmed. Narcissism tends to be a characteristic of sociopaths.
Difference is narcissist cares too much about other people's admiration, and can have low self esteem. Sociopaths don't care at all if people admire them
Sooooo, there's a lot of good information in these replies except the guy that said "they are very different". The difference in narcissist and sociopath are narcissis tend to act more like Donald Trump. And sociopaths tend to act more like Bill Clinton. I don't know if Bill Clinton is a sociopath but when he speaks he just kind of he gives that, charismatic full of shit, I'm better than everyone demeanor. Sociopaths tend to complement and make their victims feel great because when they do they're more easily manipulated. Sociopaths and narcissists both lie compulsively. Whenever their lips are moving their lying. They both have grandiose senses of self. They're both shallow and see people as objects.
I'm a sociopath
Stop acting like a victim and stop thinking you’re 100 percent innocent
My ex
The difference between a normal person and a sociopath, is that the normal person can control some things...... :))
While sociopaths can't realize that their ends to the means are somewhat destructive ;)
Krom1hell they are very destructive.
I know why I said that sociopaths can't control their destructive ways, as I had sociopathic tendencies (for close the 1 decade) that psychologists said that there is a problem with me....
Thing is I realize that I should not act apon them, even if they are fair game to me :) at that moment..... :p
Trust me I have been diagnosed with this disorder, and it rears it's head from time to time with some "actions" that i cringe to say what they are....but I haven't acted on them for a very long time....And don't plan to ever again.
Factually incorrect.
The difference between a normal person and a sociopath is conscience.. Those with sociopathy don't have a conscience, or empathy meaning they don't feel regret or a range of other emotions (including love) and they don't care how other people feel
This lady is pretty misinformed with psychopathy and Aspd. If you want to know about these constructs and their differences I’d recommend you look into Dr. Todd Grande and his explanations of them.
this is some tea
i’m no sociopath, however i should be, by the way my birth giver dragged me up, google me Joe Peters. Author, my younger brother thomas is psychopath tried killing me, as i battling my demons and went on to write books and help others, spiritual person I am as you see from channel, we don’t turn out bad....
i’m made it x.I went onto write best selling books, Cry Silent Tea and a second book Cry Myself to Sleep. I have now work in spiritual forgiveness and healing.
Okay
Can I ask how to live with someone who has antisocial personality where it does not mentaly affect in any kind of way because of the things an actings they are capable or saying or doing to a person. And living with someone who has this how does it affect their partner in the long run what happens to them mentally.
That sounds like a narcissist.. how is it different?
Narcs are psychopaths
Shell W narcissist are idiots who can’t control themselves
People demonize aspd
They're demonic. Run.
i hate how every one paints a sociopath to be monsters like they dont deserve love and there just poison truth is they need love to maybe even more then your avrage person because these people have been abused to a point of numbness and death from within ppl tell you to keep walking by. and thats the best thing todo like its the right thing to do.. whos really the monster here?.. would you walk by a dog or cat or w/e that was on the side of the road on the break of dying no dont bother its a waste of time just walk away keep going forget about it lol... thats my logic yes im a sociopath i believe love can save a sociopath its hard but can be done you can change a sociopath if you can make him realize the love and emotions he locked away because it hurt to much in his or her pass you have to actually touch there soul and maybe they will give you there heart fr but both partys have to commit to it esp the sociopath he or she has to beaware of what there dealing with and not try to use the knowledge to hide them selfs better but instead understand them selfs better and do some real soul searching and mental and emotional exercises.. a socio path can feel and love its not going to be a big cofettie pop when it happens but with time and pratice they can improve there emotions maybe even become normal again
Omg
Hi baby
Why?

Here because of Shane, right?
This is such bs
Who actually listens to these bozos
I think it's a little dangerous for unqualified people (like the people in the comments) to diagnose people with personality disorders. No, your 'ex' isn't necessarily a sociopath just because they weren't nice to you.
Alot of peoples exes are considered sociopaths or narcissists, break ups aren't amicable for a reason. Currently going through one, I went down the my ex is a sociopath route , done alot of self reflection but it just seems all a bit easy to diagnose people as such, as you say.
Are you guys talking about my life?!! Because it sounds like mine... exactly the same. Yes that's what my therapist said! We need to cut the relationship immediately NO JOKE!!! No other choices for THIS VERY SPECIAL CASE. But sadly here in my country, people believe in ghosts more than psychopaths. They believe in Genduruwo, and they underestimate 'psychopats and friends'. We also can say that a cheater can be MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER than a psychopath. Because a cheater doesnt always have to be a psychopath. But psychopath/sociopath is a cheater, and a thief, a kidnapper, a terrorist, a professor, a teacher, a genius.
I am the sociopath! Good luck!

What this one guy did is bad, but this lady encouraging discrimination against anybody with disorder is also bad.
Wait so they had a baby together. I don't understand how leaving someone especially after having their child, is a good solution! It's not like he was hitting or abusing her. Was he?! Okay so what if he was married?! Now it's HIS turn to make a choice... his new family or his previous one.
Why Do you need to know! Seriously?? Sociopaths ARE abusers, in every way possible. They are also malignant narcissists who are extremely dangerous to be around, no way to raise a child!!
I got my lifelong brain injury and trauma induced scoliosis from one because I cannot carry any more children and I refused to marry him. I got out, and have never looked back since!!
Sociopaths do abuse. I guarantee if he wasn't abusing her physically, he was abusing her mentally and emotionally and maybe even verbally. Any clues she would have found that lead to him leading a double life would have been covered up because sociopaths are great at manipulation.
Why should she stay with someone that she can't trust. Trust is a very important thing in a relationship. Anyways he could have more secrets so its better she leaves before things get worse.
Okay
