Three kids in kindergarten. A is a sociopath who wants to hit kid B and make him cry. Sociopath A learns to steal kid B's toy and blame kid C so kid C gets blamed. Then sociopath A gets to enjoy hearing kid B crying (lost toy) and kid C crying (blamed for lost toy). <br /><br />Actually, reminds me of teaching high school in a ghetto school and black kid John (pretty sure a sociopath) who liked to get two white girl friends and get them to get into a screaming, scratching, hair pulling "cat fight" with each other for his "affection," while he sat back and laughted and played "innocent" I had known him from before i started teaching and saw him on first day of teaching and had the vice principal pull him out of my class after the first day of class.<br /><br />I am not quite a real sociopath, but certainly enjoy screwing over sociopaths when I get the chance.

Whether or not it's something pop psychologists say, it is a reality I have independently verified hundreds of times. <br />Being a hands on caregiver of multiple children of different temperaments will teach you quite a bit about human nature and the variations of character that exist within it. <br />It has always amused me that academia automatically assumes that it knows best when it sees its subjects outside of their natural environments and in segmented time frames.

You know how in the past it’s come up about borderlines being a bit radical? You don’t want me thinking politically, it’s a dangerous thing. There was an issue at a college, and I exhausted every option in trying to get it resolved. I started thinking politically. Every time I do this, my mind goes to the person who is in a position of power which was the dean, and even though she wasn’t directly involved, and may have not been “fair” that she got dragged in to it, I threatened her with violence. NOT GOOD, and I’M NOT BRAGGIGN, ok? : ) : ) : ) Things changed after that.Dr. Gingernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-44346089465483070272014-11-07T05:27:23.121-08:002014-11-07T05:27:23.121-08:00"It's weird how much I can identify with ..."It's weird how much I can identify with certain things in sociopaths, and yet not be one. How does that work?<br /><br />Hmm...I think it was you that said that BPD's are "part time sociopaths." I thought that made sense.<br /><br />I see myself as having roughly three states (for the purposes of this conversation): energized (i.e. hyper-emotional; big reactions typically; often triggered), 'middlin' (i.e. more or less emotionally available and engaged), and shut down (i.e. shallow emotions; unreactive).<br /><br />Life has been trickier of late (kids, work, impending holidays, the usual life stuff), so I've been spending more time in shut down mode (to Ma Haller's dismay). I accept this as a reasonable way to function because I work hard at being mindful of what emotions are building up and giving them "appropriate" outlets. <br /><br />And, for me anyway, that's the trick: being aware of the psychic pressure to act out and finding outlets that are appropriate - at least within my value system (I have a co worker...). In this way I try to be a bit more directed with the flame thrower, if you will - just burn the stuff that should be burned, not the stuff I care about.<br /><br />For you this is "confessional" and for me it's a meeting of "Assholes Anonymous" 8)~HLHallernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-18899540161983053402014-11-07T05:00:52.333-08:002014-11-07T05:00:52.333-08:00@ANON: First question, why do you want to stop? @ANON: First question, why do you want to stop?

This has do do with the mental gymnastics of making sure you don't incriminate yourself by using the wrong mask with the wrong situation. Also- looking to the right instead of the left is a giveaway of inventing rather than remembering details and people pick up on this subconsciously. <br />Some people can feel intensity that makes the hairs stand up on the back of their necks that you don't realize you exude. It doesn't matter if you are acting relaxed. The level of energy it takes to successfully inhabit a mask is what they feel. Even if they can't articulate why they will always feel nervous around you. onewomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11320973006497715467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-70188166270015469622014-11-06T19:57:50.780-08:002014-11-06T19:57:50.780-08:00well, torching your life and letting it burn to th...well, torching your life and letting it burn to the ground five times is something that tends to haunt a person. Because flames touch more than just the mask you wore in those lives- they touch actual people. A sizable minority of those people will store up vindictive rage against you for being careless/destructive to something they had a stake in and should they run into you in the future, they will be inclined to expose you as an untrustworthy individual and will consequently spoil your current operation. Younger sociopaths can coast for a while but it's harder to start over once you hit a certain age if you can't prove to people you are more than a drifter. <br /><br />How do you stop? Figure out something that matters enough to you that you don't want to spoil it. That means being brave enough to actually want something bad enough to invest something of yourself in it rather than try to steal it. <br /><br />If you say you don't want anything that badly I challenge you to see if what's underneath that boredom is fear of failing. In many ways, sociopaths are like the people in the Staples Commercials that just want an easy button. This is because they don't want to invest too much. To me, that smells like concealed self doubt. Face that, own it, and master it by wanting something badly enough to earn it and protect it rather than remain a perpetual outsider because you can only steal it. onewomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11320973006497715467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-60815695962091203122014-11-06T17:38:29.584-08:002014-11-06T17:38:29.584-08:00HL & Dr. Ginger.

No small part of that is me "getting fed up" with something or someone or getting bored with the job (and fed up...). Mostly this hasn't been too much of a problem as I've usually managed to do OK with all my moving around.<br /><br />But, the reasons - that's where I've had trouble accepting some form of change I didn't initiate - especially when they are on conflict with my goals. That's when I've been known to start acting out - when I am not in control any more. And I split (in more than one way, to resurrect an old hippy term).<br /><br />It's taken work (I like to think of it as maturity) but I've learned to go with the ups and downs more. I still cover my ass, if you will, when things are "good" because I know there may come a time when I need to...make a point. I'm still me, but I'm more inclined to work on getting out of "triggered mode" (knives out and venom dripping from my fangs) before setting off the so called "pyrotechnics." And sometimes I choose not to... It's progress...for me at least...HLHallernoreply@blogger.com
