  1. My mom thought I was the most evil kid in history...

    1. I'm not sure what my mom thought. She received calls from the police and principal fairly often when I was a kid, but I rarely got in trouble over it. I think she kind of didn't care as long as I wasn't causing trouble at home.

      Delete
    2. Then again I always thought people didn't care or I didn't get in trouble, as long as I wasn't being told to do something I didn't want to do as a result of it. So maybe she did care and I did get in trouble but I didn't notice.

  4. Carneal isn't evil. He had been picked on for years. An act of desperation. As for the Bulger killers, they are psychopaths. One of them is back in prison for possessing child porn.

    At the trial it was established that at this location, one of the boys threw blue Humbrol modelling paint, which they had shoplifted earlier, into Bulger's left eye. They kicked and stamped on him, and threw bricks and stones at him. Batteries were placed in Bulger's mouth. Police believed some batteries may have been inserted into his anus, although none were found there. Finally, a 22-pound (10.0 kg) iron bar, described in court as a railway fishplate, was dropped on him. Bulger suffered ten skull fractures as a result of the iron bar striking his head. Dr. Alan Williams, the case's pathologist, stated that Bulger suffered so many injuries — 42 in total — that none could be isolated as the fatal blow. Before they left him, the boys laid Bulger across the railway tracks and weighted his head down with rubble, in the hope that a train would hit him and make his death appear to be an accident.

  6. What differentiates the psychopaths violence from the violence of the petty thug, is the psychopaths violence is not born from hate or discrimination, but rather a natural and primal urge to dominate and kill. It's not personal.

    1. "a natural and primal urge to dominate and kill"

      I disagree. Domination and murder is a learned phenomena, not a natural one.

      "Sympathy is the strongest instinct in human nature."
      -Charles Darwin

      Delete
    2. Yes, when born with empaty & sympathy and a normal brain.

      Delete
    3. Right, but you claimed that dominance and murder was a natural human urge. When in fact, Darwin discovered that cooperation, love, and empathy were more natural than any other instinct.

      Cooperation, not dominance, is the single primary reason why every species (including humans) have survived thus far. According to Darwin, anyway.

      Delete
    4. I didnt claim anything. You are mixing up your Anon's.

      Delete
    5. But, how does it feel to be wrong anyway ?

      Delete
    6. Bizy, the psychopathic mind is far from "natural". Darwin was not studying the psychopathic mind. The study has been around for 100 years. Darwin DIED before. Fuck dude, go you have google ? Or do you just like posting crap because it sounds good to you?

      Delete
    7. I was simply addressing the quote from Anon @ 6:43.

      The claim was that dominance and murder was a natural human urge. Here, I'll post it again, since scrolling up seems to be a bit of a challenge for some:

      "a natural and primal urge to dominate and kill"

      I was only disagreeing with this statement, nothing more. I was basing my opinion on the writings of Darwin in his book "The Descent of Man."

      I was not referring to the sociopathic mind, just as the previous commenter was not referring to the sociopathic mind. Anon was instead making generalizations about humans. I simply disagreed.

      I'm curious why my rather benign disagreement ignites such hostility in you. I enjoy a lively discussion. But insults indicate a level of unintelligence that I get bored with very quickly.

      And yes, I am well aware that the sociopathic mind is more of an anomaly, rather than the norm. Sociopathy, too, serves a proper place in the scheme of Darwinian theories. But that is another topic altogether...

      Delete
    8. You simple minded idealistic junkie fuck. What is stopping your pathetic mind from comprehending that fact, that there are predators of mankind, just as there are predators in all other species. Some children are born violent and there are many violent psychopaths who have not been abused. Violence is not the outcome of abuse, it is a tool of manipulation. Your rosy view of the world is delusional. Is that why you numbed yourself with crack, smack, whatever it was? Because you cannot handle pure raw reality.

      Delete
    9. I am well aware that there are predators in human nature, as well as other species.

      I never disputed this.

      Dominance and murder is not what has been the trait that has perpetuated the species. It has been cooperation. Again, according to Darwin.

      Though, I will disagree that children are born violent. I've been clear about this in other posts.

      But either way, it seems we are more in agreement than disagreement that predators do exist. It's just not the norm, and it certainly does not contribute to the perpetuation of the species.

    14. Anon @ 12:52

      Having a child from a possible sociopath, I've done extensive research on the subject. Kids are born with predispositions, but even a predisposed sociopathic child can be nurtured into a high functioning one, who can use his skills to contribute to society. A doctor, firefighter, etc. Not every sociopath is evil and violent. And the research certainly shows that babies are not born evil.

    15. Anon @ 12:59

      At yet you keep responding to me. I'm flattered.

      Delete
    16. Show me this research, because I have far more studies to prove you're wrong. High functioning was a label created on SW, which means it has zero legitimacy. Your idea of a high functioning sociopath would score far to low to be considered a sociopath.

      Delete
    17. "At yet you keep responding to me. I'm flattered."

      Well I can't slap you, can I?

      Delete
    18. Sure. Just hold on a sec...

      I posted all the research in a prior post. But I'll be happy to find the links again, and repost.

      And yes, "high functioning" is a term I learned from this site. It wasn't any term I found in research.

      Perhaps you can also post your findings, as well. I would be interested to know what studies you have found on the subject. Especially given my own concern for my daughter's possible predisposition.

      Thanks. I'll post the links in a bit...

    20. You're the one under pressure. I'm using the conventional idea of a psychopath. You're the person coming up with new definitions. I could simply link you to the PCL-R to prove my point, as it shows that it is impossible to score 30 or above on the checklist and still be as you call "high functioning" All psychopaths are evil, if you judge by the dictionaries view of evil. The trait callous lack of empathy constitutes this.

      Delete
    21. Right, but you are arguing that children can be sociopaths. When the checklist, as well as the DSM is very clear about not diagnosing sociopathy before the age of 18.

      Also, you didn't state that you were using "conventional ideas" - you referenced studies that could prove my opinions and theories wrong. I was asking to see which studies, since you asked to see which studies I was referring to.

      I'm under no pressure. You asked. I responded.

      Delete
    22. I'm arguing that the term high functioning sociopath is invalid. Adult psychopaths would have had oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder, as children.

      "you referenced studies that could prove my opinions and theories wrong"

      Here is the only way to determine if a person is a psychopath. As I've already stated, a high functioning sociopath could NEVER score over thirty on the PCL-R, there is no hope.

      Delete
    23. Or anywhere near 30.

      Delete
    24. I'm a little familiar with the Hare Checklist.

      I may be inclined to agree with you at a certain level. Certainly, if you score higher on this checklist, the more aggressive, violent, and criminal the sociopath tends to be.

      But those who've learned to keep impulse control in check, violent tendencies will possibly score lower, and fall under the radar.

      You can't tell me that there haven't been sociopathic presidents, CEO's, doctors, bomb detonators, pilots, etc. who are not sociopathic.

      Sociopathy is measured on a gradient scale.

      Those who score lower may have just learned to function better...and some will possibly not be detected as a sociopath.

      So, are you maintaining that every single sociopath is a detriment? Just curious to know your insight.

      Delete
    25. lizy, it's truly funny watching you cling to delusions as anon debunks you. it takes an exceptional persuader to sell theories with no basis or merit and that you are not.

    26. "You can't tell me that there haven't been sociopathic presidents, CEO's, doctors, bomb detonators, pilots, etc. who are not sociopathic."

      There are a few, but look at the widespread devastation they cause. They vent their rage with wars, mass robbery, conquering territory and genocide. A quote states, serial killers ruin families, but political and business psychopaths ruin societies. How do we know Obama isn't abusing friends, family and subordinates once the cameras aren't rolling? Maybe the smiley attention whoring Obama we all see is just his mask of sanity?

      Delete
    27. Creditdue,

      I'm not clinging to anything.

      I've only maintained my opinion that children are not and can not be sociopaths or "evil." All children, by their definition, are sociopathic.

      Most modes of diagnosing sociopathy prohibit diagnosis before the age of 18. And for good reason.

      As far as the term "high functioning" - I'm flexible in the regard. I don't "cling" to anything in that regard. In other words, I am open to other explanations for the personality who seems sociopathic, but is also maintaining a level of social success when compared to the his criminal counterparts.

      I'll ask again - in the interest of clarity and illumination - is every sociopath "evil" and a detriment? I'm not committed to any particular answer, I just want some insight...

      Okay...yes, I see what you are saying.

      I am inclined to agree with you that in most cases, sociopaths in power are destructive.

      But I do hold on to the idea that children who are predisposed towards sociopathy can be conditioned to live constructive lives. This, based on the research of Dr. Dietz and others.

    32. Also hold onto the belief that you are most likely wrong.

      Yes, that's exactly why I put the word "evil" in quotes. I am fully aware it is a man made construct.

    35. Bizy, you should tell my parents that they didn't throw enough money or time at me growing up. Being from a rich loving and caring family didn't seem to "fix" me. I think it had to do with the lack of activity in the brain where there should be some. Weird huh ?

      Delete
    36. BizyLizy want a cracker ?:

      According to Darwin, you are incorrect.

      We didn't survive as a species because we hate each other and bludgeon each other to death. All that are traits that range in the 1% - 5%.

      According to Darwin, we survived because of compassion and cooperation.

      As far as violence on t.v.? Eh, that's all hyped up media. It happens, yes, but again, it falls into a very small minority of human conditions.

      Delete
    37. accept that there are children born with empathy and those born without it. some people are predatory, others stupid. when you can throw away your idealism, you begin to see the world how it really is, but by that time you'll most likely be cracked out on some bench.

      "accept that there are children born with empathy and those born without it."

      Actually, you are incorrect. Children are born with zero empathy. None. Zilch.

      Infants are born the most sociopathic, self-indulged, self-absorbed of all creatures. Empathy is learned (rewarded by the dopamine and pleasure centers in the brain), and take about 7 to 9 years to fully develop.

      Delete
    41. Anon @ 2:44 pm

      Lol, no...you are so very incorrect. Please read Darwin's "Descent of Man." Please. You're embarrassing yourself.

      We survived by people loving each other, having sex, and cooperating as a group. People would have died off very, very quickly if everyone was only out for number one.

      Yes, there is violence and people who defy the social norms of cooperation. But they fall into the minority. Inform yourself.

      Delete
    42. bizy, how can you explain the psychopaths "vacant eyes"? psychopaths are born with what some call lifeless eyes. this clearly constitutes that psychopaths are born differently and there is something going on from the time of birth. eyes do not change due to environmental factors.

      Delete
    43. A psychopath:

      I'm not sure if it is as simple as providing a child with money, a loving home, etc.

      If born with a predisposition towards sociopathy, then the parent needs to be more hypersensitive to certain things. Discipline, for example. A predisposed child towards sociopathy would not respond to guilt-induced methods of discipline.

      You have to become the impartial judge, and let the child learn through natural consequences as much as possible.

      But there are so many factors that go into parenting, that to say you had a "loving home" and you still became a nonfunctioning sociopath is too simple.

      You may not have bonded adequately during your vulnerable infant period, you may have been emotionally engaged too much. I don't know.

      And then, yes, perhaps there are cases when nothing could have saved the child.

      Delete
    44. This beautifully sums up how bizy and other uber empaths view psychopaths.

      "I will die for these animals, I will die for these animals, I will die for these animals . . ." Legendary filmmaker Werner Herzog returns to his favorite theme, obsession, as he traces the story of Timothy Treadwell, an amateur naturalist who spent 13 summers among wild brown bears at Katmai National Park in Alaska. Treadwell and his girlfriend were tragically killed by one of the bears during the fall of 2003. This is an extraordinary and haunting documentary full of astounding footage and some great introspective narration. Sample Dialogue: "And what haunts me, is that in all the faces of all the bears that Treadwell ever filmed, I discover no kinship, no understanding, no mercy. I see only the overwhelming indifference of nature. To me, there is no such thing as a secret world of the bears. And this blank stare speaks only of a half-bored interest in food. But for Timothy Treadwell, this bear was a friend, a savior."

      Delete
    45. Creditdue:

      The vacant eyes?

      Every sociopath is different. If "vacant eyes" was the singular sociopathic trait that could give them away, then we could all save ourselves.

      It's silly to think that all sociopaths have "vacant eyes." And honestly, empty, vacant eyes are more indicative of autism of some sort.

      All sociopaths are different. Sure, some might have vacant eyes. Others might have a charming, delightful personality, while others may have a devilish smile.

    47. Anon @ 2:58,

      I saw that documentary. I thought is was absolutely insane. To go out and live with bears?? The guy was a nut.

      Bears get hungry. Bears are strong. The bear had the Treadwell for dinner. I was actually surprised that the bears didn't eat him sooner.

      But did you notice, the bears survive by cooperating with each other? Overall they are a peaceful bunch, unless someone gets hungry...then they eat.

      Delete
    48. Anon @ 3:02

      Wow.

      Nope. I am not a defender of sociopaths.

      I simply see the spectrum, that's all. I simply started this conversation by stating that it was Darwin who discovered and wrote about Cooperation and sympathy being the strongest human instinct.

      So, on that note, why don't you go argue with Darwin? He said it, not me.

    50. Ugh, unfounded pessimism is just as irritating as unfounded idealism, if not more so. Overly idealistic people are annoyingly delusional, overly pessimistic people seem to think that they're the only original thinkers in the world and feel the need to constantly remind others about this. (They probably use the word 'sheeple' a lot, too.) The world isn't all black or all white; there's a billion shades of grey in between and 99% of the time, whether something is good or evil changes with your perspective. Of course it's hard to see that when your head is up your ass.

      So can sociopaths be 'good'? Sure, why not! They are free to make that choice, same as anyone. Don't we all have desires to do evil? If we were all predisposed toward good, wouldn't that devalue our good actions and choices? A sociopath deciding not to harm someone means a lot more than an empath deciding not to harm someone. Their choice is more unnatural, and therefore meaningful. On the other side of the coin, a empath harming someone is much worse than a sociopath harming someone, in my eyes. The empath would actively have to ignore their victim's pain and the tuggings of their conscience while a sociopath would be detached from their victim's suffering. (This doesn't mean I always feel that way. I'm better able to sympathize with and forgive crimes of passion than a detached murder, even if the crimes themselves are the same. I admit, I have a little bias against sociopaths that I'm trying to quash.)

      It goes both ways. There's no underlying desire to do good or bad. There's just wants.

    55. Haha, were you talking to me, Anon 7:43? I'm not M.E., I'm a bleeding heart empath. :)

      Just because there's no desire to do something doesn't mean there is no motivation. If I only did the things I wanted to do, I'd be a fat, motionless human blob that plays video games all day. But since I want to be healthy and live a long, active life, I eat foods that I don't particularly like, I engage in activities that I don't enjoy, and I cut back on the things I enjoy that are harmful in excess. I think any self-aware sociopath knows the social benefits of living a fairly 'moral' lifestyle. Their motivation might be selfish, but honestly, truly selfless actions are extremely rare. I admit that part of my motivation for doing something kind to someone who can't return the favor is that 'warm and fuzzy' feeling it gives me. People can't help being a little bit selfish; it's human nature.

  11. For those lovelies like Raven who miss Monica Moo, I don't want to disappoint you. I study ME's articles in my quest to re-clain my self.

    The sociopath has a flexible self which seems very much like water, which is pictured in ME's article on the flexible self. The empath has a self which could be likened to an ice berg. The empath's self has more form and substance. If there has been an assault to the self, the person becomes more water-like, as happened to me.

  17. I don’t get why a source as outdated as Darwin and the Descent of Man is quoted here like the ultimate frontier of truth.

    Sociopaths are no more of an anomaly to human life than spotted hyenas are to the African ecosystem. They are a natural part of life. An ugly one, but natural nonetheless.

    Claiming that compassion and cooperation are more rightfully human than the urge for dominance and destruction is denying a very obvious part of human nature. Just take a look at the most successful examples of cooperation in carnage, such as the war-machine of Christianity throughout history and across continents.

    Human nature is made of opposites. The one arises from the other and each one is meaningless without the other. Cooperation and compassion make sense to those who feel it only because they can also intuit an inner state of desolation and barenness.

    It’s just that the inner world of the sociopath usually epitomises the one extreme. And it is that extreme one-sidedness that feels so alien, or ‘evil’ rather than the actual capacity for destruction.

    2. That makes total sense to me, Yellow. That is why a sociopath and an empath can bring a unique perspective to one another, unlike an empath with an empath or a sociopath with a sociopath.

    5. Yellow, I think you missed my point.

      I didn't quote Darwin as the ultimate frontier of truth. Though his theories are still the most widely accepted by science to this day.

      But I certainly don't discount other theories of human nature.

      What my point was that within a specific specie, there has to be overall cooperation in order to survive and thrive. Anomalies are simply characteristics of a select few that deviate from the norm of the specie as a whole. These anomalies have their place in ensuring the specie thrive. They can sharpen our defenses, keep us alert.

      Hyenas as a specie are also very cooperative within their pact. Are they cooperative with the African ecosystem? I would venture to say yes, they are. Hyenas do hunt and kill and scavenge, but they only take what they need, and no more. They don't dictate a gazelle genocide. They only kill when they are hungry, and among themselves they cooperate for the ultimate survival of their specie.

      This is all I meant by referring to Darwin.

      I don't claim that compassion and cooperation are more rightly human than dominance and destruction. This is where you missed my point.

      Obviously dominance and destruction is part of human nature. But...my point here is only that is was never the driving force behind the survival of the species. It is a dark side, yes. But it is cooperative behavior that has propelled each and every specie forward into surviving and thriving.

      From ants to penguins to lions and monkeys....cooperation and working together. This, I would be so bold as to say, is the elixir of life.

      But again, Darwinism is only theory, albeit a much respected one. But theories are always open to speculation and improvement.

    6. "From ants to penguins to lions and monkeys....cooperation and working together. This, I would be so bold as to say, is the elixir of life."

      This is essentially why it is named antisocial personality disorder because sociopaths have no benefit toward society. In other words, sociopaths are useless and damaging to society.

    7. Anon @ 10:49

      Great observation. Though some would argue that sociopaths serve as a way to keep the rest of society vigilant and prepared for life-threatening situations. Arguably, without them, we may become too relaxed and despondent. From an evolutionary standpoint. From an ethical or moral perception, I can see how many people with ASPD are detrimental.

      Which leads me to my ongoing question. ASPD is a personality disorder with sociopathy as one of the criterion. Do you think there is such a thing as a functioning sociopath (without the ASPD disorder) who can contribute to society.

      Again, just a question. Because honestly, I don't know. I tend to think that there are functioning sociopaths who have learned that contributing to society ultimately benefits themselves. Of course, they don't arrive to this conclusion by any internal moral or empathetic compass. I would think that they arrived to this conclusion through analyzing that abiding by social rules saves their own ass.

  19. OK, I will take the challenge, even though I will have Raven et al coming at me like a dragon spitting fire.

    I have a sociopath g/f. She wants to show someone her face, as she is lying to everyone in her life. I want someone to listen to things that most empaths cannot handle such as incest. I have yet found an empath who can bear to listen, shrink or non shrink. She talks to me about how it is to be a socipath. She tells me her struggles. She is simply a gift to me. I expect nothing except respect and honesty. She gives me that and I do the same. However, it is the difference in perspectives that makes it unique, as there are things a sociopath can do much more proficiently than an empath and vice -versa.


    That is my story.

  21. The sociopath is comfortable in the realm of primal emotions. He is not afraid of what terrifies me. What is natural for him is foreign to me. The primal self is more than sexuality. It is all our passions and impulses. I jettisoned those when I was molested at age 5.

    1. why do you have a hard time giving a direct answer? i asked you how it benefits you to see the dark side of man and all you tell me is that you are afraid of things the sociopath is not. that tells me nothing. are you still afraid? are you trying to be more like a sociopath? less like? and tell me how does a sociopath benefit from an emapth such as yourself?

      Delete
  22. Ok, I will try to be flat out direct. I am scared to death of my anger, my sexuality, my passion. The sociopath shows me that these are NATURAL parts of the human being. I talk to her about my passions. She helps me see that I will not be hurt or attacked if I am a primal person and not a walking head. I was molested when I had primal passions. I think they got me molested, even though I know, in my head they didn't. In my body, I think they did.


    For her, she has to lie to everyone about her experience as a sociopath. She is starting to tell me what she experiences day to day as she navigates her world which is made up of empaths, like me.


    She is a bridge to my own passions, which is a PART of my human nature. I am an empath who can help her make some sort of a bridge in the world in which she lives which is populated with empaths, to whom she must wear a mask.



    One cannot describe every aspect of it, as there are things which slip under the radar, as far as that they have no words to express them.

  23. Empaths can't seem to deal with the kind of things I went through without trying to push it away and hence, not allow me to grieve it. I need someone to hear me for me to let it go. I don't know why I never could get rid of it until, now. Where and how I met her, I do not want to say.

  24. why don't you want to say? because i scoffed at the idea that you met a genuine sociopath online that wants to help you grieve? i don't personally believe a sociopath would care to listen to your sad stories. personally i think you are more likely to meet one online while being scammed. you claim you know for a fact that empaths can't deal with your story do you? why is that? do you believe you story is different than anyone else? if the empath is more likely to be the victim, and the sociopath more likely to be the one to victimize, then which of those 2 are more likely to be able to relate to the victim? i think it would be the empath don't you? or are you one of those people who rejects your own kind because they are not unique enough?

Alice Miller has a website in which she explains the concept of the Enlightened Witness, which is what I am saying, in layman's terms.

  44. I found the young girl, Mary Bell intriguing. Most pre-teen budding serial killers don't start to stalk or kill people until their mid teens to early twenties. She even left a signature and took trophies. I imagine she started on animals at a young age. From the genital mutilation, it sounds like she may have had sexual situations with someone to view them as something significant.

    Most of the rest seemed like standard homicides/spree killings. She's the only one that screamed psychopath to me. The rest, you never know.

    6. The kid who dragged the girl back to his house and brutally murdered while having the gal to hide her bloody corpse under his bed was definitely a whack job, and probably legitimately mental, but a psychopath? I doubt it. They aren't the only violent offenders on the crazy train, and that was so incredibly amateur. Then again, I'll give him props for unintentional humor, keeping the corpse of his dead lady friend with his stash of pornography. That was worth a good chuckle.

      I have a really hard time giving a shit about anything on the news, even if it's something local and interesting. I live in my own little world where I prioritize everything based on enjoyment factor.

    9. I wasn't implying psychopath. Just that it was interesting.

      I also tend to avoid the news. I pick up on some news from forums I frequent. Occasionally something like the Casey Anthony case will annoy me on facebook. The reactions most people have to things like that are very grating. I almost responded with "it was her kid, it's not your business what she does with it" or "Babies take two years tops to remake and it was her baby" to someone who would not shut up about it on facebook. I held back because the consequences of posting something like that on my actual facebook account weren't worth it. I also don't actually believe what I wrote in quotes, but it's a less annoying and more amusing position than not shutting up about how A BABY KILLER GOES FREE!!! 24/7.

      I really do not understand the emotions most people go through when they read something they dub horrible in the news. I can predict them. I just don't understand the psychological process at all. It's always when the person is arrested too, when it stops mattering. If it's someone who isn't caught I can chalk it up to fear or something, but once they are caught? I don't get it.

      Also, the Casey Anthony case is interesting because she was guilty and did get off without legal consequences. It's worth reading an objective view of at least once. I didn't follow it while it was happening, because you get bombarded with dumb stuff. Write ups on things like that after the fact are usually decent.

One important event just doesn't have the endurance to affect me if it does at all in any long-standing way. I'm all about th short-term pleasures. I've never assumed a future, and with cancer now, I'd say I'm glad that's how I'm wired. A guy my age, unmarried with no kids or house to own would have officially failed the American Dream ;)

    12. I feel amusement easily while doing most anything, but it goes away as quickly as it comes. If something makes me happy it's only for however long that something lasts. Rarely more. I've had a relationship break that, and I've had anticipating something break that for maybe a day tops.

      I don't really associate emotions, or pleasure, with activities or people which is probably why I prioritize differently. I'm constantly looking for more, and it seems fleeting.
