Sociopath Community

Is being a troll on that list?

It's #1

Me, me, me...

Oh please do choose my wicked vestige, as I am a case to brag about and bring you prestige.

Let me introduce my humble self first. I am a 'cheshire cat' of a beer directed thirst.

Later I will be a stoned caterpillar. A finest example of society's creative pillar.

Finally I will be the vengeful queen. You know, the one that eats your spleen.

Shall you have a question bereft of a social disease, I'll skulk around and answer as I please.

P.S.

There isn't really much to research about the topic, as you're just gonna ride your carriage over the worn out cobble stones.

P.P.S.

Stupidity is as much about innovation as intelligence is about invention.

P.P.P.S. (is that even valid?)

Avoid my advice and explanations at all costs. I deal mostly in clairvoyant confusion.

No. I would administer the standard diagnostic evaluations. You would remain anonymous of course so your diagnosis would not be official it would merely be used to validate the research.

How do you plan to administer the standard diagnostic evaluations. Through interview only?

Do you have any experience in evaluating psychological disorders?

LOL. Oh now cmon you're just way too easy

Stop pussy footing around Thrill. Are you interested or not? You're one of the only people on this forum I have any interest in using so are you in or are you out?

LOL thrill is your prime interest....then why bother with the thread? why not PM her?

There also needs to be a control group. If you want this to have any sort of order and not be the jumbled mess that it has the potential to be.

Scientific method!

Yeah, Bitch!

Psychology may have originated from philosophy and theory and conjecture. But I assure you that it is very much so science now. And it continues in that direction with increasing leaps and bounds. I consider myself as a man of science and base all of my research on things that can be measured, tested, and easily repeated. So if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and walks like a duck it is a duck. That statement is not conjecture and simply fact.

You do make a good point that not nearly enough research has been done on psychopaths and Hare himself has admitted to this. This is why his checklist is most often used in criminology and forensic psychology and not in clinical settings. I would like to research high function members of these neurologically variant groups.

 No doubts that psychology is progressing in leaps and bounds - although I think to attempt to claim it is a black and white, measurable science is a bit of a stretch. Although in this time and place psychology appears to be the new religion and the greatest science we have - to what end one must ask. 

After the scientists label all the folk, medicate them within an inch of their lives and release them to freedom what do we have? The bland society of drugged zombies.... Sounds rather boring to me.

So much more fun to let the natives roam free - variety is the spice of life after all.

I'd participate if only to lend a little more insight into those of us who manage to avoid the attention of the Justice system, either through personal restraint or well executed offending.  

I am new to this forum, and I'd be fine answering some questions for you. I don't care for the validity of your researching process as much as others in this thread, and I'm bored, so why not.

I haven't been diagnosed officially, since I don't see any use in that, but according to the pcl-r I am well-into the range for psychopathy (34/40).
