Sociopath Community

 Aside from the selfish childhood tendencies, the perspective and mindset of M.E. as she described in her book, was so in-line with me,

I haven't read M.E's book, but after seeing the interview she had on Dr Phil, I don't believe M.E is a psychopath at all. I strongly suspect that she actually has Borderline Personality Disorder. So, if you can relate to her as well as you're claiming, you should probably research BPD.

that I find no doubt in my mind that I exhibit psychopathic tendencies (Still not saying that I AM a psychopath).

It's possible that you may exhibit some psychopathic tendencies, though it's easy to lack remorse if you rationalized your actions and felt justified in the choices you made. There are a few other things in your posts that indicate to me you're not a psychopath, such as your empathy and the amount of focus you seem to place on the consequences of your actions. I also suspect you have a moral conscience.

With that said though, I'm not a psychologist, so I can't be certain my opinion of you is accurate.

If only I could find the time to sleep. I'd be willing to do anything and everything I felt necessary for ascending any ladders if I just got some more sleep. But there's not enough time in the day to do all that I want to do. I feel like I'm wasting my time by sleeping. To think that a third or more of my life will be slept away is absurd.

Quality of Life > Quantity of Life.

Insomnia doesn't make you immune to sleep deprivation.

 Tell me about it. But, I guess that's my problem. I don't plan on dying. Quantity is important to me atm.

 I exhibit almost no BPD tendencies, that I can see. And I don't think M.E. does either. At least not from my interpretation of BPD and her behaviors and thoughts from the book. Other than that, I think what you're saying (regarding me) is pretty much what I've been thinking over the past couple days: Psychopathic tendencies, but not psychopathic. My desensitization is undeniable though. It worries those that know that aren't also desensitized. I trust the people who know though. They know me as a very stable-minded and nice person. If anything, they don't believe me (Not yet anyways. I might demonstrate it. One of them already tried to get me to via a death/gore video, but the video didn't work on the school computers, go figure.).

On a completely separate note, I imagine, based on your voice and the way you talk about death and violence, that you're either incredibly beautiful, or hideously ugly. I don't think there can be an in-between for you.

 Now, if only I could get to sleep as quickly as I used to. Looks like I gotta find the energy to work on my sleep patterns and work schedule. Thank you for the idea, it actually seems promising.

"I don't plan on dying."

When you find that immortality serum, make sure to tell no one else.

Oh, and: The idea of me having a moral "conscience" is quite laughable. It's more of an intuitive moral recognition. I generally know what's right and wrong to other normal people. But the thoughts of people dying, or even me killing, leaves me indifferent. Something I didn't know about myself before looking at (What I think was your thread, if I remember correctly) the gore thread, specifically the sexual gore photos: I'm kind of turned on by it. Not enough to act on it, but enough to elicit a surprised reaction.

 That would just ruin the fun. I'd rather people fight over it. The fittest would survive, and I'd be moved up a few more spaces in traffic the next day. Human conflict is amusing.

All of eternity with the same person or people would be an annoyance that would outlive that gladiator fantasy's charm.

 If that happens, I'll take my own life. I'll not die willingly to something outside of my control, not unless I found it exceedingly more beautiful than a good sepukku.

But... you'd be immortal.

Not really true immortality if it can be ceased, and if you can make it stop, so could anyone who'd wish to thwart you.

 I see a difference between immortality and invincibility. I simply desire the re-extension of my cells' telomeres every 20 or so years.
