I know that they should be tools, just as fear once, in the caveperson was a useful tool. However, more often than not, they betray the experiencer of the emotion. If this were not true, then on one would not be able to helplessly love someone who treated them like garbage. <br />That people become self destructive due to emotions, which are truly, merely physiological responses to mental stimuli, tells us clearly that often they (emotions) can not be trusted. I am not a sociopath, but I am at this time not sure that it should be called a dysfunction. I keep trying to learn more about it. It seems that they, sociopaths are not good for empaths to be around, but this is no different than the nature of the predator and the prey in other ecosystems. <br />Lions, eat gazelles. I am sure that to a gazelle, the lion is quite evil. However, to the lion, the gazelle is merely necessary sustenance. If the lion were to have a conscience, about eating the gazelle, then he/she would ultimately perish.<br />I do not know what it “feels” like, or is like to be a sociopath, or psychopath (still trying to understand the difference between these two), but I know that I have know one, and while I did not appreciate the dishonesty and other bs he threw at me, the lack of consideration, etc, I admired much about him, his intelligence, and strength. <br />I envy his ability to move through life relatively unfettered by things that typically bother people. His “dysfunction”, allows him to “be his own man” as the cliché goes, in ways that it just is not possible for others to achieve. To genuinely not care what others think and feel, allows one to be original in ways that are perhaps not possible for others. <br />I do not pretend to understand the sociopath, and perhaps I am being horribly naïve, but I do envy him the gift of a life with no emotional pain or baggage. <br />I only wonder, if he is able to feel the more delightful emotions, with the intensity that an “empathy” or “normal” person can. <br />I wonder too, if this is a good thing for them. <br />Perhaps the middle pillar, is a better place to be.anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01621904543971047494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-28475197686797005412009-11-27T14:03:12.970-08:002009-11-27T14:03:12.970-08:00To Inshivaad:

Well of co...To Daft Cap Wearer:<br /><br />Inshivaad says...<br /><br />Well of course it had something to do with the topic being discussed, no? Perhaps I didn't do too good of a job explaining the significance of my examples, but I assumed they didn't need further explaining. Basically the point of my post was to show that nothing is true, nothing exists, all things are how you want them to be. <br /><br />Hence the meaning of my example regarding my apparent cruelty and jadedness. I do not see myself as such and so I am not cruel or jaded, though others may see me as such, and so I am cruel and jaded in their world...but their world is not mine, so their world does not exist to me. Alas, this is the underlying reason for why I personally cannot feel real emotions for anyone other than myself...it's because I do not see you as an existing entity. When I was a child, I always believed that life was just a game and that you all were pawns and that I'm the only one with actual life. This way of thinking just so happens to also be a symptom of a disorder...and so we come back full circle to the realm of labels. <br /><br />I'm not evil and neither are the empaths, we're simply what we make ourselves to be.

In fact, early on, realizing my sociopathic tendencies, I did the exact opposite of what I was programmed to do... focus, commit, drive myself deep into something permanent.

Depends what you define as evil. Not one of us is free from that. We tell ourselves we are good so that we can feel good. We don't examine the deepest darkest parts of ourselves and accept it. Instead we ignore it and if does ever happen to rear it's ugly head we justify it by convincing ourselves that our actions, reactions etc were based on bad feelings we were experiencing instead of our own characters. It is not just the sociopath who has their own agenda, we just keeps ours hidden from ourselves and others because we are afraid of it. Why be afraid of being selfish? It is human nature! I assume most would consider that thinking about killing someone would be considered evil? You can't tell me you have never got so frustrated that you said to yourself "man I could kill that person right now!" Every one has the ability to be that selfish, to be that frustrated. It doesn't mean that you will act on it but you are just as capable of this type of "evil" thought as anyone else, Empath or not.<br /><br />The People PleaserAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-78607604062820604382009-11-26T06:00:47.281-08:002009-11-26T06:00:47.281-08:00Words like interesting, glamorous, successful, or ...Words like interesting, glamorous, successful, or accomplished are mostly used to describe other people as a way to validate them.

It still isn't up to you to say that’s what they are and always will be. I don't look up at my ceiling and think that crap because things like that shit runs through the minds of people who are unsure of themselves and I am sure of who I really am and my path in life, your validation figures nowhere near my clarity of self, but I’m sure you never look up at the ceiling either, since you are damn sure I am whatever it is you are calling me, evil right?

The contempt and mockery shown for these other instances of 'neural diversity' is an exact image of how the rest of us should look at you. You (the sociopath) are not interesting. You are not glamourous. You are not successful. You are not accomplished. The odds you ever will be are extremely small. Only the rarest sociopath leads a full and successful life.

It’s absolutely true in my experience, which is why I kept saying that it doesn’t matter what people think of me because it says more about them and their state of mind than it does me. That isn’t arrogance; it’s clarity. Only I would probably add that it’s not so much the feeling, good or bad, that traps you, but one’s attachment to the feeling. Instead of trying to shortcut or repress the emotion, merely notice it and let it go on its way is what I would say. <br /><br />I don’t really know that this way of thinking is “sociopathic” either. Must detachment from emotion equal pathology? I don’t know. I do know it’s akin to Eastern mindfulness practices, especially Vipassana Buddhism. Taking a step back and being aware of what one is feeling rather than identifying wholly with it would probably do a lot of people a lot of good, imnsho.Daniel Birdicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-79499769485659095552009-11-25T14:34:47.136-08:002009-11-25T14:34:47.136-08:00Our "disorder" isn't a disorder, tha...Our "disorder" isn't a disorder, that's why we can ever be "treated"...because we don't want to...and why would we?
