Psychopath or Sociopath | What You Need to Know

Learn more about psychopathy & sociopathy here: my.medcircle.com/3qg8YiW
Psychopath, sociopath, or just arrogant? Few people understand the science behind the psychopath and the sociopath. In this full-length masterclass video, clinical psychologist and personality disorder expert Dr. Ramani Durvasula does a deep dive on the psychopath, the sociopath, and everything you need to know about antisocial personality disorder (ASPD).
There's a fine line between someone who is overly-confident and someone who has antisocial personality disorder, which is the clinical diagnosis behind psychopathy and sociopathy. Not only are ASPD symptoms and behaviors difficult to spot, it's also far more common than most people realize.
Some of what Dr. Ramani covers....
- What causes antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) - nature or nurture?
- What goes on in the brain of a psychopath or sociopath - and whether they can feel remorse or empathy
- A deep-dive of the signs and symptoms of a psychopath and a sociopath
- How to tell if your friend, coworker, or even your spouse is a psychopath or sociopath
- The latest findings and research on ASPD, psychopaths, and sociopaths
- How to handle a child who is showing signs of ASPD
- How to cope with a parent, co-worker, boss, sibling, or family member who has psychopathic or sociopathic traits
- Whether someone with antisocial personality disorder can recover / be cured
“There is no ‘average’ person with antisocial personality disorder. You can find people with antisocial personality disorder everywhere from death row to the best table at the best restaurant in Los Angeles.” - Dr. Ramani Durvasula

    Hi, I am definitely involved with a full-blown narcissist/psychopath in a civil criminal lawsuit and have 100s of videos of him saying the most egregious things. An example is he claims I have been a scammer all my life [nottrue] and another is that he posts videos that Ihaveflesh eating bacteria and when he does videos he does audio-only and even though it is his voice and his channel he denied it was his voice. it was very frustrating and its an ongoing case. the worst thing is he makes 3 + videos a day and all stating that he is not the person in the audio upload even lying to the prosecutor. So you are correct they really dont believe they do anything wrong because thus far he has gotten away with it. Even worse he made 50+ videos of how my ex-girlfriend is sleeping with many men [not true] she is getting married to her new boyfriend. He denies 64 audio and now video uploads on youtube saying hes just making commentary but in fact has no remorse for any of his deeds however the prosecution has been following him for a year now and knows he's lying. I will update you when its over. BTW, he calls may people wives ffing prostitutes bar girls whores and worse ... more that 20 that I can prove and he will go nuts even if you say his wife is a flying monkey...but she is and helps him on his shows. He has done all of the above to 20 people and again states he has never said a negative thing but only making commentary. truel you have nailed this topic. thanks for your insights

I dated a psychopath/covert narcissist. Lies, manipulation, cheating, you name it. I found what helped me heal most was research. These...beings...are not human. Whether that is from thousands and thousands of years ago with different cave species or a recent human evolution, who knows? But yeah, counciling can only go so far because either they are clueless, greedy, or a monster themselves. Again, just wanna say you are not alone. I remember that in itself helped the most.

However, I think she understands something's not quite right about mom. She's very very smart but not scary like her mom. Point is having that experience is never truly in the past. Learn, be smarter, ( I like to say that I may not know exactly what I want but I've got a pretty clear idea of what I will not endure or tolerate.) Without exception, everyone's life is or will be scarred by tragedy. Pick it up move on live your life in such a manner that makes it clearly worth the FN trouble😉.

    The only thing that I found disappointing was that bit about being distrusting of people who don't have a social circle. When you're someone who was abused by both parents for decades, abused by intimate partners, and abused by society for being "other" it may be in your best interest to stay away from people. It takes time to find trustworthy people, and that's okay. Anyone who judges you for that is not worth it.

    The most frightening experience of my teaching career occurred many years ago. I was teaching 1st grade and one spring day in the cafeteria one of my students pulled the chair out from under another child as he was sitting down so that the child fell and spilled his lunch. The chilling part was hearing the 6 instigator say as he stood over the fallen child, “Last year today was field day and you pushed me down. I said I would get you back. Did you forget? I didn’t.” He was right that date the year before was field day.

    The primary traits of a sociopath are an inability to actually honestly care for another human being, to feel another's pain, to feel sorry (deeply, truly sorry) for the pain he/she causes you (or others), to feel real love, to feel any real obligation to the well being of anyone but himself/herself, to have a conscience, period. Some say sociopaths tend to be “very charming”. I disagree with this characterization. I believe, rather, the sociopath mimics what he/she has observed as “charming” behavior tailored specifically to the individual upon whom he/she decides to prey. Sociopaths get off on “getting one over on you”, on interacting with you long enough to figure out what you like/care about (be that your kids, your pets, your family, your music, your hobbies, whatever), then tailoring their comments and conversations with you to those topics to “reel you in”, feigning similar interests or interest in general, playing you like a fiddle until you think they're so cool or so funny … then, once they've gained your trust, start testing you little by little in more sick ways to see if you'll do things to please them. To a sociopath, who is easily bored, it's all a game. You are a joke to them. They are getting pleasure at your expense, even though it may take you awhile to catch on. But you should have some early instinctive feelings that “something just doesn't feel right about this”. Trust your instincts IMMEDIATELY. The longer you stay involved with a sociopath, the more you will come to feel demoralized and broken and, quite possibly, suicidal. To the sociopath, you (and the countless others upon whom they are preying - because, make no mistake, they typically have multiple victims going at one time, “the others” - who they're keeping secret from you), you are a source of ego inflating supply. Everytime he/she can get you to come running when they say they want you, get you to believe them when they say “they're done with all that ” (referring to whatever bad behavior you've discovered and confronted them with, behavior that has deeply hurt you), whenever you react to the pain they cause you by crying /breaking down/ pleading/screaming/cursing/sobbing … they are LOVING it. It's like you're giving them the best drug, the best high they've ever had. And they know they've got you … and you become an even bigger joke to them than what you were to begin with. You're no longer a challenge, though, frankly, which makes you easily dismissed by them. Just when you think you wont hear from them again, though, you suddenly will, with a text that seems innocent enough … and you may be tricked into thinking, at that moment, “See, he/she does really care!” But again, watch and live it out, if you must, but you'll only find yourself right back at devastation and heart shattering pain. The sociopath cares about NO ONE, period. Sadly, deep inside, not even himself/herself. They are people who harbor a deep inner self-loathing, whose core is made of empty nothing and hateful insecurity. But NEVER make the mistake of thinking - if only you could show the socipath how committed YOU are to him/her, how much you love him/her, how YOU believe they are worthy of love, you can fix their inner wounded child …. Blah, blah, blah. Just stop yourself, for the love of all that is sane. I beg of you. Because your best efforts WILL NOT work to achieve this end. Your best efforts, your repeated coming back to them like this, in fact will only affirm the sociopath’s view of you as a pathetic pawn from whom he/she can continue to get “supply” (the ego feed they desparately need to survive). You mean NOTHING to him/her. You never did. You never will. A sociopath is not curable. There is no medicine, no anti-psychotic, no antidepressant, no therapy (the sociopath would never engage it anyway) that can ameliorate this condition. The only thing you must do is take steps toward SELF PRESERVATION. And you must, because a sociopath will kill you eventually. Truly. Psychologically damage you so profoundly, if you stay engaged in any relationship with him/her over a substantial period of time, that you may never recover. I know this. I allowed myself to stay committed to one for 22 years. And I'm intelligent. But my belief in my own self worth plummetted to the most dangerous lows a person's self-value could plummett. If you recognize these traits in whomever you've begun a relationship with, just RUN. and never, NEVER, look back. Block all contact. Don't fool yourself, as I did for years after I finally said, “Get out!”, into thinking, “Well, he sent me this text. I mean, I guess we could be friends.” It doesn't work! A sociopath doesn't have friends. A sociopath gathers people for “supply”, and any acts of reaching out to you is an attempt by the sociopath to see if they can still hook you, whether you will stil be an easy source of “supply” to them. It is ALL at your peril and expense and ALL designed for his/her benefit. Run, run, and run. And never, never, never look back. Trust me. I KNOW the truth of which I speak. Additionally, Catching a cheating spouse might be difficult, and knowing what local laws say you can and cannot do might be even more difficult. To simplify the process, consider hiring a private investigator to do the sleuthing for you I genuinely appreciate how incredible you are and your work!

Like someone who has his personal ideology to feel empathic only for a specific group of people and actively suppress empathy for others? For example someone who is really really egocentric or egoistic, but usually is able to be empathic.

    I was adopted in infancy by a couple where one parent had psychopathic traits. She sometimes told me stories about how she and her cousin drowned animals when they were children. Even as an adult she had no regrets. She laughed about it. She had a sadistic streak that manifested with dependent children, pets, and later elders. She sometimes threatened to blind and even murder me when I was very young. She often told me, “I never make a threat I wouldn’t keep,” and “I am not a mercy person.” I survived and am neither blind nor dead. However living in a state of terror took its toll. I grew very slowly, never thriving. I am under 5’0” tall today. Dependent pets and elders also suffered while in her care. One of our family members died of starvation. It was horrible. I wish that the public knew that adoptees and foster child end up in the hands of abusers too. People say, “Oh but adoptive parents are all carefully vetted. Adopted children are wanted-no one would abuse them. It’s beautiful thing.” People adopt children for all kinds of reasons. The majority of adoptees I have met say they were adopted to save their adoptive parents’ marriages. They have their own stories about what happened to them when their adoption was a disappointment. They failed to save their adopters’ marriages. We have a multi-billion dollar adoption industry that supplies prospective adopters with babies and small children in exchange for money. Adoptees need safe homes too. We don’t need a double-whammy if it can be prevented. We need people to work in those places that can screen prospective adopters for personality disorders. They are needed in foster care too.

    I have never been diagnosed, but I believe I have antisocial personality disorder in a higher functioning capacity. I am a business owner with a wife and two kids and when my wife found out it helped her understand me and helped our relationship. The catch is that I have faith in the Bible and I practice the growth that it says you are required to maintain in order to be a Christian, so I have a high standard of a moral code that I actively practice each day like lifting weights whether you believe in God, or not, at least I have some thing I strive to achieve that holds me to a standard higher than even a non-sociopath in most cases

    @Queen Tantrum You just gave a clear explanation why she should not be your therapist, unless you're looking to please your senses i.e. a therapist who tells you what you want to hear or conversly the opposite "Here's what needs fixing about you. . ." And very likely if you can identify w that, then you probably know exactly the disordered thoughts or behaviors in your own life that need changing, as well as the practical choices available to your unique situation, even to a degree no therapist could *as accurately* conclude. At a certain point - it seems to me - the main benefit of therapy is to have someone listen as we reveal *TO OURSELVES* - painfully honestly - what The Watcher (id) sees you doing all the time, and may reveal either excessive self-criticism, or any degree of disownership of responsibility - or any point in between. The idea that a therapist could know me better than I know myself as I look in the mirror HONESTLY - I find to be implausible. The therapist's mission statement includes my willingness to submit to a kind of brain hack - i.e. psychopharmacological intervention(s) designed to help me *demonstrate behaviors* considered by _________ to be more "normal" or less problematic or stress-inducing for those around me. And the real problem is that we are mostly all capable under certain conditions of expressing the full-range of behaviors when our very survival is threatened. And the real threats of current wars/ nuclear warfare, govt bribery and corruption - can put all of us under that stress - w mostly predictable responses: The definition of CIA social psyops. It's like Hermann Goering said - The bigger the lie, the more times repeated, the more people tend to believe it ESPECIALLY if they are led to believe they are under threat of attack. Americans are being programmed for depression and or anxiety because it is such an easy manipulation at that point. Ex: "Bomb Syria. Label anyone who disagrees 'an Assad-apologist' and a Russian spy." becomes reality for soft- minds - and off we go down the capitalist rabbithole with Islam as the threat, when in fact te MIC is the greatest CREATOR of depression and anxiety AND is the greatest threat to mankind's survival as a species on earth. 1984 happened a looooooong time ago. *Blade Runner was November, 2019* and I'm pretty sure we all can spot a *replicant* Just sayin - you *may* start out lookin for a therapist, and end up saving humanity as we know it. *[Or maybe just masturbate instead?]*

    She might be well studied but it doesnt mean she will be good at treating patients.

Often being your own therapist is the best solution for the most part of your treatment.

    Interesting how she says she avoids charming people at parties. I used to live in a lot of shared accomodation situations where we would interview lots of people as potential roommates. It got to the point that I would not allow exceedingly charismatic people to move in, because I had at various times in the past found these types of people to more likely be manipulative and users.

    Psychopaths cannot form relationships ever as they dont care enough to begin them in the first place. Psychopaths cannot feel anger as anger is linked to a form of empathy even if be it to a part of yourself. A actual psychopath is a double edged sword as they can hurt others and or without realizing it and they also are easily taken advantage of because not being able to get angry and have any true self care means a psychopath will not care if you hurt them be it beating them, rape, and so on. The only time psychopaths have ever had positions of power or influence is because they were born into royalty or inherited massive wealth as a psychopath will not work with other people. They lack the ability to even care to work with people seriously in the first place. A psychopath wont even pretend to like people if it's to acquire power as again they cannot care enough to even pretend in that way. Psychopaths are very much live in the moment individuals and true long term goals are not possible. Psychopaths make good slaves and servants because they are incapable of caring about their safety and have no interest in achieving power and influence.

I ended up working with the child to help them know it’s not them it’s the adult’s issue & to look for their self-worth inside themselves. It was truly heartbreaking & something that will never leave me.

    @@Kayster1971 ok.. if you have been dating one of these kids.. of course he is no longer a kid. But he is what I believe to be BPD with Cluster B Narcissistic personality disorder so what would that look like to a normal person? He appeared to be very honest at first, then the longer I'm around.. the more the odd outbursts and petty arguments. Bringing up a text message to a guy who sent a text message about giving me some d!€k and he would bring it back up over and over again throughout our relationship in order to make the terrible things that he would do to me alright.. and they wouldn't even add up. Like what he did was just not the same.. and how long he used it ..that one thing he could say was a mistake of mine. And he continued to use it to justify everything he did to me. Cheating, which he never admitted. But the fact that he was constantly starting stupid petty arguments just to leave me at home so he could run off and go to his ex who he was obsessed with. And he doesn't have any remorse.. and if he does, it doesn't have the same effect as it would have on me. He would look upset, guilty, miserable.. and then he would project and try to rub that onto me. I am empath. I have no medical training but I have dated so many messed up people. I am like a magnet to them. I have learned everything I know from my dating record.. he would be so sweet somehow but then same day and he would turn into an insensitive disgusting thing. And his whole personality would change by one single trigger.. and anything and I mean anything would trigger that change. But if he ever got caught doing something wrong then no matter what triggered him to change.. which also made him do the messed up thing to me... he would still use the stupid text message which I never reacted on.. although I could have... he did act.. without the text messages continuing.. but the part of the text message that bothered him.. was my response I deleted..so he made up all of the possibilities of what could have happened and although he didn't believe that I did anything.. he knew he had.. so if he let me off the hook for the message... what would he hold me guilty for? So he always used that. But ok.. so here's the biggest thing. He would text this other girl.. which was not allowed for me period. No one from the opposite sex, except my dad. But he messaged her plenty. But he deleted ALL of their messages.. and when I went to ask him about that, because he read all my messages to and from everyone all the time.. constantly asking me who was that, what did they say.. I mean ridiculous. Even when it was just a random meaningless notification.. anyway so when I asked him to read their messages which I knew they had messaged on multiple places say the phone, messenger, duo.. and all of them were erased and he was so smug 😏 and proud and it really made me feel sick to my stomach the way he would switch.. and go from this guy.. to that guy.. to THAT GUY. I thought I was going crazy for a while until he started doing it in my face. And called me while she was there beside him and talking nasty to me about what they were doing.. which they probably weren't at the moment but who knows..

    Thank you! What a super-awesome chat! I specialized in psychology for 3 years in university and took "Abnormal Psych". 10 years ago I became roommates with a friend who ended up being a sociopath. There was slways drama, arguments and his behavior with a co-worker seemed bizarre and cruel. A good friend said he sounded like a sociopath. I found a "sociopath checklist" online and knew of the general criteria. He got a 4/5,. I thought he was honest as I had no reason to believe he was a liar; he said he was honest. One day, after he used my laptop, I found some very revealing skype chat and realized everything was a lie. I'm mentioning this because the lying is hard to prove unless you look carefully and honestly. In hindsight, I admit I overlooked warning signs as I'm non-confrontational and was naive. As the expert says here, if you have concerns about someone, look at their behavior broadly. I now think of any relationship as a something like a workplace: no one gets a promotion before proving themselves. Better to have no relationship than a bad relationship.

    How to spot a sociopath/psychopath for regular people: -their eyes look dull, bored, etc. It's like looking at an animals eyes. There's just...nothing there, no ones home. -after a while you can catch their voice sounding monotone, dull. Like they are reading from a history text. They might be able to hide it at first, but not always. -if you have...truly experienced one (Shivers)...you will know them just by their vibe. Your gut will tell you, "avoid avoid avoid!" -they are smart, really smart. Super duper smart. Do NOT under any circumstance think they have average iqs or that you can outsmart them, most times you can't unless you have solid proof. Most have 150+ Iq but some can have 200+ and higher. -Most don't have s3xual orientations. With a psychopath they can suit anyone, male, female, les, gay, trans... They don't have a personal preference. Some will, but most don't. They swing both ways. -Sometimes they will tell you. You'll be sitting there with them at a coffee shop, sipping your drink, when they suddenly say out of no where "You know, you should really stay away from me." You ask why, cause it's super eerie, and they respond "I'm not a good person." -anger. They will have anger. Tell you they wanna punch people, etc. Anger is a major sign. -they will act weird, creepy. They will hide behind a corner and shout "boo!" as you pass them, or they will suck the energy from the room by dropping their mask for a minute. It will feel like you are in the room with garek (the wolf) from "the never ending story" -time. To spot a psychopath takes time and patience. I've had a lot of experience, and so far I've been able to tell within a year or so.

Nevermind their drug addiction, trainwreck lifestyle every weekend and trail of broken people behind them. Yet no "criminal" history or signs that will alert you.

    My dad was a complete narcissist, recovered alcoholic and had intermittent rage disorder. My mom was a simpleton from a poor and uneducated family. She was completely dependent on my dad. There was alot of chaos which caused me to act out at times with temper flare-ups, rebellion and I avoided home by working part time after school and on weekends. I had lots of friends and activities. Though I had boyfriends I knew I couldn't marry or have kids because I had too many negative traits from my family. I read self help books and just hung on to an assortment of jobs until I could become financially stable, independent and whole. I listened to my intuition and did not allow society to push me into another cycle of dysfunction. I realized early on that my family was different. I knew I was on my own at an early age.

    Have you seen the movie "I Care a Lot"? The museum were I worked for almost 30 years fell victim to a pack of psychopaths and some young people employed by us who had no morals or ethics who allowed themselves to be used to advance their own careers. To this day we don't know what they told the board but they managed to get us fired. At least we got a severance package. Though not much of one. The head psychopath who engineered all this was a brand new board member. No sooner were my boss and I fired and all the professional staff quit in support of my boss and me. Then this new board chairwoman turned around and fired the young people she had doing her bidding. They got a taste of their own medicine. The attack on the museum came from two fronts. First a wedding company run by a mafia boss from New Orleans and his business partner a female, wanted control of the museum. We were in an architecturally significant building which was the only space in town to hold large weddings of 300 people or more. The female partner started an affair with our then board chairman. Soon the mafia boss made this chairman a business partner where they set up a business called Ballroom LLC. Then the mafia boss got his personal high net worth private banker who works at Bank of America elected to our board. The former chairman was asked to step down as chairman to allow this new board woman to become chairwoman. The entire time she was grooming two young ladies to help with her real goal. These are the same ones she got rid of when they were no longer useful to her. That group is now running their for profit business through a 501c3 not for profit institution. The private banker is using the museum to launder money for her clients. I think anyone who read this much gets the drift. But believe me this is not nearly all of what went on. Thanks for letting me vent.

    @@Mia-rb5lj it is extremely difficult to find help, especially if abused by a narcissist. I have been. I have cptsd. I have a PhD therapist, paying out of pocket. It is extremely expensive. Even then, most in therapy are not properly vetted in these disorders as Dr Ramani is. Even PhD degreed therapists. Book knowledge is not the same as direct knowledge through experience. This is a reality of life. It isn't the fault of therapists. This is a difficult topic all around. Difficult to truly understand, and for most difficult to accept that such people truly exist. Psychopaths and such walk a line of reality barely within our existence, mostly within their own false existence. To understand them fully, and completely, is to be a psychopath one's self. To try to truly understand them, can make one lose touch with reality and cross into that very dangerous realm. Those like Dr Ramani are able to effectively navigate this minefield using science and logic.

    ​@@whytho1534 I am wondering whether her mother was ever clinically diagnosed with both Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Anti-Social Personality Disorder. Those suffering from either disorder, especially the former, are notorious for not seeking or outright refusing treatment of any kind. Furthermore, too many laypeople (attempt to) diagnose others in their lives or otherwise without the requisite and extensive background, schooling, knowledge, qualification, and certification to do so; and even then, proper, well-trained, and ethical licensing mental health professionals do not "diagnose" those whom are not their own direct clients (and whom they have not treated in some capacity) unless there is a substantial need to do so in order to facilitate growth and client awareness and accountability or in order to meet the stipulation(s) put in effect by their clients' respective private or state insurance agencies. With all this in mind, I would have to conclude that the commentator either misunderstood the dual diagnosis of Cluster B personality disorders given to her mother or the commentator determined the dual diagnosis for herself, either one of which explains her relative lack of knowledge or awareness regarding one aspect of the diagnosis (in other words, providing a clinical and an informal descriptor for the same disorder). What are your thoughts?

What I have been dealing with is someone sadistic and cruel that lacks all self awareness and has a complete lack of empathy. This experience has been a nightmare from hell.
