okay, so here is the thing i know most people on here really are sociopaths, but i'm at a fork in the road and i just need a confirmation that i am indeed normal so i can continue on with my carefree life. I live a life that i find normal i work a job that probably isn't going anywhere, but i don't mind i just want a normal life till i die. considering i don't expect to live past like 42. i am currently 22, so the way i see it i'm halfway through my life. and that doesn't bother me, but from time to time i guess i could say that i can see the perspective that would make people consider me a sociopath. i reallllllyyyyy don't think i am and to be honest i hope ( when i say hope i mean the common way of saying hope...) i am that is enough right.... if i can believe i'm normal and everyone around me sees me as normal because of my behavior it must be true... please this is kind of tearing me apart... well not in exaggerated terms but in the way that i just need to know that i am normal... no one seems to understand what i'm going through i'm not reaching out for emotional connection i want facts saying i'm normal because of everything that i have said. i'm going to apologize even if i don't find it necessary but it's comforting for most people so it should be ok. if anyone has read this and thought "yeah this guy is just a normal mofo " just reply yeah you are nomal continue living the same life you have.
do this
http://personality-testing.info/tests/LSRP.php (ignore the name it's for sociopaths it also said so in it)
http://psychopath.channel4.com/quizzes.html (mainly for psychopaths but sociopaths would score high on it as well)
http://www.blackdoginstitute.org.au/public/bipolardisorder/self-test.cfm (bipolar is sometimes similar to sociopathy)
http://www.aspergerstestsite.com/ (some doctors missdiagnose sociopaths as asperger so what ever do this)
it will narrow it down a lot
no... i don't hope i am a sociopath, i came here so that all of you would tell me that i'm normal lol i just want to fit in... i don't want to be different than all of the people that i am with. it's just that i can't seem to find and interest in that they do all the stuff they i find extremely boring ( nothing really seems to entertain me) it's not just this group either i have been in so many social groups but to this date none keep my attention... i don't want to be different...
do those tests..
if you score high on the sociopath or psychopath one
do these 3 after it because it should tell you more specifically if you are sociopath or psychopath (assuming you scored high up on the above ones and LOW on asperger one^)

Well then, you should learn to write, and express yourself more concisely. You said, and I quote:
"but from time to time I guess I could say that I can see the perspective that would make people consider me a sociopath (what "people"?). I reeealllllly don't think I am and to be honest I hope (I mean the common way of saying hope) I am, that is enough, right?"
I realize that you believe you made a typo- but I would call it a Freudian slip. You hope to be a sociopath, but fear that you are simply boring and "normal" - which is most likely the case.
You're welcome. :P
sociopath/aspd=created by bad schooling or bad home enviroments or whitnessing something horrible or rape ect..+some genetic thing from parents also being aspd or one of the coexisting disorder and you got abused by it
psychopath, asperger=genetic/born ONLY
bla bla this is basically it
i can't give you a perfect way to understand and neither can doctors they're all still studying it as we speak
