Confessions of a Sociopath: A Life Spent Hiding in Plain Sight author M.E. Thomas interviews Kid X, whose father is diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). They talk about boredom, passion, race (Kid X is black), being different, desires for change and the possibility of change, blending/masking to fit in, emotions, and creative outlets in which we can hear our own "voice."
Interesting to hear an eye witnesses account of what it is like to live with a sociopath. Liked his take on race to raised some questions on how such social factors affect development of sociopathic traits.
ReplyDeleteIts interesting when this guy says he feels the emotion for a "super short time". I've found this to be a repeating trait among similar minds, an emotion only lasts until the next thought. A neurotypical emotion which will linger for a day or longer, it will permeate thier own mood and behavior.
