Sociopath Community

I've been called emotionally stunted, callous, and "tough". My s.o, with whom I have had a relationship for several years, has called me a sociopath. But I just think I inherited a lot of traits on the spectrum.

I try to be a better person, too. Except on here. Here, I just want to be a cunt xD

Some people called me a sociopath. It made me angry and then I read up on it and it made me worried they might be right. But I don't think I really am. I just like to win and enjoy watching other people lose and cry.
I'm trying to be a better person though. :D

I have yet to see TK display any AsPD features. It's clear from the nature and the wording of her posts that she's completed a lot of (internet-based) reading on the subject matter and is paraphrasing it in describing her "symptomatolgy." She does this not by identifying specific symptoms but by identifying characteristics which are supposed to lead the reader to conclude symptomatolgy.

Don't worry, Inky. I'll always reserve the softest kid gloves for you. 

Now... Where do you want 'em?

;)

I don't actually know if I'm a sociopath. Maybe just a socio-lite. ;)

Who would have thought there would be so many people here with a (cereal box) PhD.

I don't have my MD yet, but I do have a First Class Honours degree with a major in Psychology. Do you think that I might possibly be able to compete with your obsessional internet research projects?

Will do. Thank you.

M.E. doesn't come to these forums. You're more likely to reach her through her blog comments and through email.

I am absolutely not a sociopath. I'm only lurking.

There's a search feature? I came to look up M.E. 's 'work' (if you could call it that.) Troll threads are just as good as anything else that's been written about her. Is there anything out there that doesn't knock her? I doubt it.

I honestly wanted to see how people would respond. Would they admit to it? Would they become defensive? Would they boast? Would certain people choose to not reply? Would they make a post filled with word insurance so they could retract it when someone questions them? Would they actually try to figure a ratio?

As I thought, it mostly became about who individually is or isn't a sociopath based on themselves (alongside some banter) instead of trying to figure the numbers on each side or speculating how genuine or not genuine others are (save for TK anyway~). I could come up with conclusions of my own from using the search function (I love that thing, trust me), but it's another thing entirely to watch how people reply when the question is blatant.

It was also inspired from how often some users are prone to generalizing, as I know they won't use the search function. I figure why not have a single place they could look or use as reference?
