What are you guys? Sociopath or Psychopath?

What are you guys? Sociopath or Psychopath?

I probably am a psychopath. I have a good job, no empathy, lack of fear and high intelligence. So a CEO position is not that far of for me.

What about you guys?

Note: If you're a NEET you're probably a sociopath.

No real drive just alot of risky gambling to make up with my short comings
Would stick a knife in my sister's skull Infront of my family without remorse if she oversteps the line and removes any shred of integrity I have for her.

Dunno what I am.

I'm neither of these, more of an autistic schizoid without the charisma of a narcissist but the same lack of remorse, lack of personal attachments, fairly under control.

Neither you edgy retard.

That'll be 500 bucks. you're welcome.

You're probably right, filthy halfie.

Nah, I am a psychopath. I am pretty much a check mark for all the psychopath traits.
The only thing is, I am the 40% of Pychopaths who made myself into one due to the environment.

You're probably a normal functioning human.
Unlucky.

>I'm a normal person
Absolutely disgusting.

>Wanting to be
No. I am one.

Very unstable sociopath, obviously.
I'll see you in the news papers one day.

Whoops, I didn't fully read your comment. You're probably just a regular autist.

I am a faggot

I believe you.

I have actually been clinically diagnosed a psychopath. The medication does help alot though.

Who the fuck made that retarded infographic? The words both refer to the same condition. The choice of which word is mostly historical.

Column B in this graphic basically just describes a low IQ version of the person in column A.

Youre just a faggot probably

Most psychopaths and sociopaths are not self aware about their pathologies. I would know since I’ve met several during my travels. They’re entirely selfish and controlling. Like rotten children.

i am unironicly a sociopath, i also had problems with a medium level schizophrenia. Its very hard to find a partner this way

>being normal is disgusting
I would love to be normal faggot. I am a psychopath, but I experience symptoms from both disorders. I also experience psychosis which I think is the worse part of the whole thing. It fucks with me pretty badly. I think you are larping.

Probably neither because I like cats

>I cut my eyes
You sound pretty edgy yourself faggot.

There is a serious issue with the internet generation and self diagnosis. This is the same issue with all those tumblr whores self diagnosing as BPD/agoraphobic/OCD, the reality is you look at a checklist and think you understand what is meant by the terms used. But the reality is qualified experts with years of experience understand that the checklist is more like a mnemonic for them to remember entire textbooks worth of criteria evaluating severity, context, outliers etc. True diagnostic isnt just about ticking boxes its also about excluding all other possible explanations via thorough investigation.

I am highly skeptical a genuine psychopath would browse Veeky Forums, sociopaths maybe. For example, this is not true of all cases obviously, but one of my friends is a textbook psychopath. He functions like a highly efficient machine, in other words he only spends time doing things that directly further his goals. For him the act of simply “relaxing” is almost excruciatingly boring, he needs to be observing or manipulating people because they are the only form of stimulation that satisfies him. So he soends all his time grooming himself, socialising, pushing himself to be more charismatic or funny or in control of situations. If he meets a woman and he fails to attract her he hecomes extremely infuriated with himself so will spend the next 3 weeks obsessively flirting with women to improve his “game”, then you begin to get a better understanding of the big picture. For psychopaths life is basically a video game, everything is about having fun and scoring points via manipulation. Psychopaths tend to be extremely charismatic and successful for these reasons.

I'm an empath fml

life IS a videogame but it's one of those retarded ones where you can't view your stats and you never know which slime is the one that has fucking 1000% immunity to all your attacks

Is it weird that I feel more sad towards animal cruelty than most of the shit I see on here, liveleak, and documenting reality?

No, it just means you are well conditioned by ((them))

Used to feel like that, realized it was fluoride and poor diet

I am a psychopath too and a really successful one.
What gets you detected?

Which one was the janetty?

Masters in Psychology here.

Academically, there is no universally agreed upon difference between 'sociopath' and 'psychopath'. The terms are often used interchangeably or sometimes with completely arbitrary differences.

No actual psychopath would reply to so many posts on an anonymous message board
You're just an average 20-something with slightly higher than average success but devoid of any special quality compared to your peers, so you build up a persona based on an "interesting" trait that makes you different
You probably post on reddit and/or forums too, are or have been interested in pickup artist stuff, would define yourself as a dark triad male while the actual number of your conquests is in the single digits

So what the fuck am I? I have empathy and I feel guilt+remorse.

Everything else is a check.

Neither: avoidant personality disorder, like half of the people on this anonymous board
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avoidant_personality_disorder

this user is not okay, somebody help this guy

This.

Nah, it depends, some people do make a distinction. You have to keep in mind that the lines of all personality disorders and other mental illnesses are often blurry and they're just names we assigned to given sets of characteristics, so it's debatable if psychopathy and sociopathy really need to be seen as different things, but the fact is that they still often are.

Are you a misanthropic leftist?

I "self-diagnosed" me with this 10 years ago

People are confusing being a rational person with being a psychopath or sociopath.

Being rational and making the objective best choices for your personal gain is NOT psychopathy. It's just being a high IQ individual.

Choosing objectively better results over subjective morality is almost always the better choice.

Intelligent people try to balance social points with personal gain. If you disregard morals in the short term for short term gains you will risk losing out on long term (social) profit.

Therefor choosing to show empathy sometimes results in better PERSONAL gains in the long run.

I fucking hate that everyone calls just normal rational behavior psychopathy. Psychopaths are people with a literal disfunctional brain. Just because they disregard emotions doesn't mean they will automatically be rational or make rational choices.

Don't be retarded and don't let the media confuse you into thinking being a rational human being means being a psychopath.

Also please stop making psychopathy seem hip or trendy because that is something 16 year old highschool children tend to do and I don't want rational behavior to be associated with those kind of people, thank you.

itt : edgy teens

Had a nice laugh.
Good thread OP.

But i've grown out of it somewhat. I am way less sensitive now. Maybe just an angsty teen 10 years ago.

good post

They aren't diagnosable personality disorders. "Psychopath" and "sociopath" are meme conditions

Same desu, I think everyone cares less with age. The depression and social anxiety never fully go away, but still.

They're as real as all of the other personality disorders.

Psychopaths have dark spots on their brains within MRI that would normally lit up within normal people.

Similar to what autistic people show in MRI scans. You can recognize a psychopath and autist simply by looking at a brain scan and not knowing the person itself.

Therefor it's a real and verifiable condition. Although it's not clear where the line between autist and psychopath really falls as both have to do with a mismatch in empathy. It's very possible that in the future psychopathy will be classified as a form of autism.

So... do you fantasize about killing people or the like?

Neither do well in life. They are a better predictor of a life of pain and misery than a career as a cororate executive. Don't fool yourself

>APD
What's that?
>lack empathy
No but I try to control what/who I empathise to minimize risk of making wrong decisions based on emotion.
>Disregard of social rules...
Depends what those rules and standards are, i've got my own.
>violent
Violent means a strong or powerful force. Not really violent afaik

I sound like a psychopath but I'm not... I hope.
I can form personal attachments

>I am the 40% of Pychopaths who made myself into one due to the environment.
, but those are best done logically not on a emotional basis.
but that's socio though as well.
I do feel like I've shaped myself to be this way as well through thought and deep thinking

Psychopathy is more often caused by sexual abuse in children, especially men by their mothers.

Also lol at that hollywood "highly educated and a CEO!" version of a psychopath. The vast majority tested have IQ's under 100.

>"highly educated and a CEO!"
Conventionally successful people people are actually statistically significantly more likely to be psyco. Doesn't mean they are set up for success or anything, most end up being fucked up normal people or serial killers.

Women and retards are obsessed with 'psychopathy' and endlessly read about 'muh serial killers'.

Its almost a pathology and its demented.

Sociopath IDD KIND OF Psychopath

go do your homework, kid.

>I fucking hate that everyone calls just normal rational behavior psychopathy. Psychopaths are people with a literal disfunctional brain. Just because they disregard emotions doesn't mean they will automatically be rational or make rational choices.
Not emotions, but empathy and morals. It's because you are arbitrary:
>hurr I love animals, durr mmm delicious bacon
If humans come with a non-empathy based logically grounded ethic, then I could consider it sticking to it just because it's the correct right thing to do. But I don't really care.

Psychopath here, the few the proud.

>cringe

> I probably am a psychopath.

So fucking edgy.

I hate sociopaths. Fucking degenerates.

I'm not psychopath too because I can empathise and have remorse. I do share some traits with psychopaths like not having any personal attachments, being in control, highly educated with a good career and enjoy taking calculated risks.

But I lean more towards being an anti-social faggot.

>nicestguyyouveevermettwistedfuckingpsychopath.jpg

>Conventionally successful people people are actually statistically significantly more likely to be psyco.

Literally the opposite is true, the vast majority of psychopaths have POOR impulse control and subsequent long term planning.

Your idealized version of a psychopath is an extreme rarity. The hilarious thing is that the vast majority of highly successful people often display a high degree of self awareness (Of habits, action, behavior, impulse) that psychopaths clinically lack.

incredible bait thread, just giving you a (you), nice job user!
