How to Tell if One is a Sociopath

24 posts in this topic

@Cjaryo @Cjaryo I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to post anyway. A good rule of thumb is that sociopaths won't care about the fact that they might be a sociopath. 

I've read a little bit about the experience of sociopaths and psychopathy from the perspective of sociopaths and psychopaths. If you want to understand sociopaths, the best thing to do is just ask them. On online forums, they aren't gonna lie, unless they are trying to hide the fact that they are a sociopath in the first place. They're speaking of their own free will and taking their time to write these answers. They enjoy writing about their experiences, and even occasionally enjoy writing stories of how they manipulated people. Fun/interesting stuff to read. 

This explains what a sociopath is best https://www.quora.com/What-exactly-is-the-definition-of-a-sociopath/answer/Corey-Reaux-Savonte-1

A bare bones definition of what a sociopath is "A person who has a significantly reduced ability to experience empathy, as the result of psychological trauma." I recommend you read the link if you are interested in learning what sociopath is and how it manifests.

Many people experience trauma, but not everyone's trauma is big enough for their brain to be rewired significantly. The younger you are, the easier it is to be traumatised. Ironically enough, I personally think it's "wrong" to moralise against sociopaths/psychopaths and call them evil. They are just a different variety of human. There's no reason a sociopath/psychopath can't be enlightened and actualized. To say that they can't is to apply your artifical standards to consciousness and spirituality. 

 

Another thing is that I think that many people have sociopathic traits without being a "sociopath". It's all about the degree to which you were traumatised when young. You can think of sociopathic traits as things which were initially coping/defence mechanisms, but these coping/defence mechanisms become ways of being for a sociopath even when they are in non-threatening situations.

Hark ye yet again — the little lower layer. All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event — in the living act, the undoubted deed — there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the white whale is that wall, shoved near to me. Sometimes I think there's naught beyond. But 'tis enough.

Sociopathy leads faster to awakening ;) 

Then, the sociopath comes back and teach people, what the most gurus have done, hahahahaha...

 

This term "sociopathy" is just another label for a standardized society. 

 

Is not natural for a human being to put another human being on a pedestal.

A sociopath is a very damaged individual, his childhood is full of trauma. He could easily kill you and enjoy it if he knew he would get away with it, only strong psychedelics like DMT can fix him. I feel sorry for people like that, I really do.
