From a reader:
My name is Sara. I have been weird and not so normal all my life. When I was little my dad was physically abusive if we did the wrong things but I quickly adapted to this so while my siblings got beaten I was spared because I always knew what to say or do. I learned at a young age that no one else but me could give me the answers that I needed or help me if I needed something. Me and only me was my way of life.I used to manipulate my siblings into being my slaves and do chores for me. I'd lie a lot but as soon as I discovered that you lose credibility and future opportunities to manipulate I stopped.I tortured cats, chicks, and dogs. I once left a cat insides box for a week feeding it only sporadically because the stupid cat wouldn't stay put and I hate when small little things don't do as I say.I am now 24 yrs old and very manipulative. Ex. I use sex or sexual attraction to play with men.. They don't have feelings anyway. I once cheated on my fiancé by sleeping with a stranger at 8pm, then sleeping with a state trooper at 10pm then going home and kissing my fiancé good night as if nothing ever happened.I'm doing the same thing again.. I tell my husband "I will never hurt you" and in my mind I'm making plans to meet with this other man.I've thought about doing bad things and the only thing that stops me is jail. Honestly who wants to be trapped? Just do what you can get away with...after all being an innocent cute girl works better on people.I have a BA in psychology and I fucking love my Job at a psychiatric hospital. I can finally feel at home.Thoughts?? Would you post this? Oh and I somehow enjoy it when people talk about me.

ReplyDeleteSounds like another one of Zwhawq's many aliases.
ReplyDeleteInteresting! Are you a diagnosed Antisocial? I dated a girl who was but she was pretty cruel, had pretty much the same habits as you (no offense). But what I dont understand is if you want to sleep around with men than why be in a "relationship" at all? As the Great Hervey Cleckley would say " He is your boyfriend/husband in name only"
ReplyDeleteDo you ever feel bad for cheating or manipulating him?
Honestly, how would you feel if you figured out he slept with 2 women and than came home and kissed you?
PS- Iam an Empath. But iam NOT against sociopaths, iam only against people who purposely hurt others and get some twisted satisfaction from it. I treat people with the respect that I would like to be treated with.

ReplyDeleteIf you can bring yourself to orgasm just by thinking about another man whilst in the bed with your snoring, broke husband, is that cheating?
ReplyDeleteNo, that's planning ahead.
ReplyDeletewhy yes. Yes it is, Bambi. I 'd consider getting a full psychiatric eval, too.

Gary, spill the beans about your new cases. Frank likes the gore and blood part.

Confession: I married Frank and viewed him like a trophy and a possession. I lied to myself. Sorry, Frank. I love you, though.
ReplyDeleteThat's ok Bambi. I just like fucking you in between ur tits and cuming on your face . You don't mind, do you?
ReplyDeleteThat's ok with me.
ReplyDeleteOnce when I was hospitalized I wanted to exercise and one of the psych nurses saw me doing it. She made arrangements to have me conduct a group class. I sort of said yes, but then felt pressured. I told her superior that she should realize I aM a PaTIENT goddammit !!!! I felt she was using me to get her job done. But I had sort of agreed .
ReplyDeleteI had her transferred to another floor, I think. I didn't know that would happen. I didn't like her. I Was indeed carazay. But she overstepped a line with me.
@Eden I made twitter FUCK YES in your face
ReplyDeleteI would never do that. I would have realized you were crazy and left you alone to heal..
ReplyDeleteThank you Caroline. I told you I thought you were wonderful and I meant it.

Today's post fake or not just sounds like someone looking for an excuse to be a dick.
ReplyDeleteLOL i have a funnie story when i pissed off the nurses at a hospital they transferred me to a mental hospital in the middle of the night by ambulence from shouting profanities at them all night after barricadng myself in the room
ReplyDelete(I have bad grammar I get it. I didn't study in the U.S.A.)I'm the process of learning English and grammar is one of my weak points.
ReplyDeleteAnyway..
I wish my story was made up but it's not. I ended up getting divorced a divorce, and to be honest i only cried for 5 minutes the morning after he left. Why did i cry? i don't know. I started dating a 37 year old man, and i really tried me best to accommodate to him, only to find out that he had been cheating on me the entire time! I guess karma is a bitch. What surprised me the most was that i didn't feel anything, no tears, no anger, no broken heart.. NOTHING.
I'm still seeing him but i know our clock is ticking..
I already know i will never be faithful to him,
I already know that i will break his heart,
I already know that i could never love somebody and that is the only thing in my life that actually disturbs me.
You know what surprises me the most? is that people think i am this nice, beautiful, charming, and loving woman even when i confess everything to them.
-SARA
What are you thinking about doing that could put you in jail?
ReplyDelete@Sara How can you break his heart when he is cheating on you
ReplyDeleteI thought about horrible things. But it was mostly fantasies to release my anger? I'd play them over and over in my head. Is it safe to say it here ...?
ReplyDeleteHe had been dating this other girl for 2 months, and he basically didn't know how to end the relationship. I found out about everything, and now he is like my slave. He does everything i ask him to do (he's trying to win my heart). He actually likes me + it was not an exclusive thing because i was still married when i dated him.
ReplyDeleteCompletely safe.
ReplyDeleteNo its not safe.
ReplyDeleteWay to put the cape on.
ReplyDeleteMy ex-husband is still begging me to be with him. He is the only one that knows EVERYTHING about me and he still wants me!? That is something that i cannot understand.
ReplyDelete@Sara STFU and enjoy being with him sounds like a great thing to have even special
ReplyDelete=)
ReplyDeleteIt honestly creeps me out that someone could care so much about me. It makes me feel more evil. He sees something that i am not. He sees the person that i pretended to be for so many years... i'm at the point where i just can't hide it anymore.
ReplyDelete@Sara what if he likes the secret you hide and you like him cuz he knows and still accepts you
ReplyDeleteI saw this placard at my friends home the other day. It said that people will not remember what you did or what you said. They will remember how you made them feel.
ReplyDeleteSara you sound like a narcissist more than a socio.
ReplyDeleteOr just a storyteller.
I thought I told you it wasn't safe, Sarah. Why are you still talking?
ReplyDeletesara = zwag
ReplyDeleteshe's appears on zwags blog
Here's an example: A friend showed me the video of a girl throwing puppies in a river. I'm sure most of you saw the video, it caused outrage. My friend was very disturbed by it.. I had to pretentend to be shocked. I was actually empathetic with the girl. I could actually imagine the rage she had to do something like that.
ReplyDeleteHere's an example: I saw this crippled autistic women getting raped and I laughed at her.
ReplyDeletewv rucken
He makes me smile and I love the odd way we found each other we can see each other anywhere its not perfect but we have come along way and been through alot we were always side by side entertaining each other and didn't know it fully that says something
ReplyDeleteYup Sarah is not a socio. Her puppy story confirmed it. Not just "empathaizing" but the mention of rage. Dont need rage to kill puppies unless ur not a socio.
ReplyDelete@ukan Ben dovet seriously?
ReplyDeleteHave you ever killed an animal?
ReplyDeletequestion my friend used to use her animals like toys and choke them by collars hangin over the stairs and I watched her throw her cat over a overpass to see if it would live. i never was bothered by it her laugh cracked me up while she did it. one of her cats twithed from the torture constantly. i have no urges to do these things but people doing it doesn't bother me. i have beaten dogs but i don't really enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI see what "Sara" is doing. "She" is trying to build rapport so she can get others to self incriminate. I dont normally offer help to socios but in this case use ur noodle peeps and check your egos. It is probably a cyber cop. That would explain the terrible grammar lol.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to figure out the trait in sociopaths that they do not learn from their mistakes. I have not learned from my mistakes, either. What prevents it? The person must be lost in his own distorted world, to the degree where he cannot actually see what is really happening. In his head, the same script must play over and over. Reality must not touch it. I know that I, as a co-dep, have lived like this for a long time, myself.
ReplyDeleteCan't cosign the animal abuse shit. Its not the watermark for being a sociopath.
ReplyDeleteMy friend's dog had 4 puppies.. My friend would dip them in water and put them in the freezer for a few seconds just because. He'd also cover their nostrils and mouth to see them fight for their lives. He'd also submerge them in water just to see how long they lasted. This was a while back and in South America where they don't care about people much less about animals).
ReplyDeleteI caught my little nephew in a temper tantrum screaming his guts out. He was red in the face screaming and screaming in the family teacup min pin's face. The dog just sat there and shook and whimpered. It peed on itself. There was a little bit of a disbelief pass over the boys face. He was surprised he could have an effect on a living thing that way. Then he stopped.
ReplyDeleteThe Caroline in the first part of the comment section is not I. If any Caroline is funky, it is not I lol
ReplyDeleteNot Able you are retarded. I had to laugh when I read you in Zwaq's comment section saying that she just lost you as a reader a few days ago. I can't believe you were reading that rubbish to begin with let alone that you were still reading it after she got exposed.

ReplyDeleteI guess this is the kind of comments you'd expect from sociopaths? I just wanted to let it all out. I'm not making up any of this! Do I sound too enthusiastic to be real? That alone tells you how much I enjoy telling the things that I do.

ReplyDeleteWow, Eden. Inspiring hatered. I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteEden is jealous that Monica gets on the Twitter and Eden doesn't. Monica is cool and you are not, Eden. Eat your envious heart out Eden he he
ReplyDelete@Eden your full o shit no man wants daddy rape leftovers i wouldnt touch you your nasty
ReplyDeleteWhat your friend did to the animals is a socio thing to do. Empathaizing with the perpetrater in a video and believing the source to be rage is not. It would appear that you are your basic garden variety piece of damaged goods. Probably a beeper.
ReplyDeleteNot a socio.
@Ukan
ReplyDeleteI do what I can.
@Anon
Actually, it's embarrassing how often Monica makes twitter, and worth mentioning. She's still the biggest retard to ever set foot in this place. If someone comes who beats her, this blog just might spontaneously combust.
Sara... what does all this cheating do for you? What do you gain by it?
ReplyDeleteI got this PD think on my mind. I think PD's can't learn because they are too black and white in their thinking, too concrete. Emotionally, people with PD's are simple, like a black and white photo, not complex like an Impressionistic painting. What do you, all, think?
ReplyDeleteMonica rocks, Eden. You can't compete. Just kiss her feet and be done with it ha ha
ReplyDelete@Anon... "Probably a beeper."
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not. No abandonment issues unless she's overcompensating for an expected outcome. Unless she's in a deep empathic dissociation because she's so afraid to commit for fear letting someone close would expose her inner self to being vulnerable, and therefore open to being abandoned/humiliated/taken advantage of/etc... probably not BPD.
never empathized with her i screwed her over BAD
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vuV_vKshcM&feature=related
ReplyDeleteEden theme song
Tentatively I'd say Sara is simply a victim of abuse. And like many victims of abuse, as they grow, they eventually self-identify with the abuser that traumatized them in youth. It's rather common for someone to become ensared in the cycle of violence that comes with living with abuse.
ReplyDelete@ Haven Stockholm Syndrome? like Eden?

ReplyDeleteFake Haven, ye shall visit the tower for such treason.
Eden, Monica may, just, have something worthwhile to say. Ever think of that?
ReplyDeleteNo Stolkholm Syndrome is when you sympathize with your abuser and mistake a lack of a abuse as an act of kindness. Victims of abuse may always hate the person that abused them in youth/childhood but because the ‘lessons’ and treatment were so ingrained in their upbringing they may have internalized the behavior. So with, or without, realizing it they often begin to display the attitudes of the abuser that had such an influence on their formative years. It could also be as a reaction to being a victim. By becoming the abuser it’s a way to regain power and control in adulthood where they did not have it in childhood.

ReplyDeleteto be diagnosed a sociopath, the traits must be extreme. david, it's obvious that you have empathy, because you are outraged at people taking advantage of the vulnerable.
ReplyDeletefor callous lack of empathy, you'd get scored as a zero.
@ David there has to be a reason that PD's don't learn and "normal" people do.
ReplyDeleteIt is emotional, not intellectual. It is not a factor based on IQ. It must be some kind of emotional denseness due to being blocked. What else could it be?
Caroline, there are plenty of non-PD, "normal", people that don't learn from their mistakes. It's not just a PD thing, or even a PD thing at all.
ReplyDeleteI learn from my mistakes quite well. It all depends on the severity and situation. I guarantee you there are plenty of mistakes I will never make again. Others kind of creep up on you and you can't necessarily spot them right away. Though frankly, depending on my emotional state I do have an uncanny ability to ignore the glaring warnings that I pick up. It's not that I haven't learned from my mistakes, I have, there just happens to be something else that appeals to me enough to risk it. Maybe it's impulse.
'By becoming the abuser it’s a way to regain power and control in adulthood where they did not have it in childhood'
ReplyDeleteWell that is how you learn to manipulate, from watching others.
You can't just be born a skilled manipulator. The majority of people who are raised in abusive homes, will grow up to despise abusers, or will have codependency issues, a very small amount lose their empathy and become abusers themselves.
Narcissists usually have a narcissist as a parent, that they have emulated.
You can't take the impulsiveness out of a sociopath. The whole essence of impulsiveness, is to not be able to quell the impulse.

ReplyDelete'I'm pretty sure the whole outting Erin/Ami was a fair example on this site of not caring about the welfare of the vulnerable.'
ReplyDeletehow many times did he apologize after it? a few.
callous lack of empathy must touch every aspect of your life. i'm not talking about douche baggy lack of empathy. i mean baby in a blender lack of empathy. that's what psychopaths have.
he also remarked that he wouldn't be able to cut someones head off. a psychopath could perform that with ease.
ReplyDeleteWho the fuck is Monica? Should I know her?
ReplyDeleteThe twitter is seen as some kind of reward 'round these parts, vm. "oh wow! M.E chose my comment to represent the entire blog! He/she/it totally likes all my opinions and since M.E is the authority on sociopathy, my comments are much more credible now! Woooo!" Like that. I stopped caring when i stopped appearing on there for several months, hence the bitterness. :D

ReplyDeleteThat actually makes a ton of sense to me. I get the two confused all the time.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete@David This is my working theory.
ReplyDeleteWhen you have a PD, you are not in proper touch with your own emotions. As such, you are not in touch with actual reality i.e. what is happening inside you and around you. One cannot learn how to function in life well, when one does not know what is happening with oneself and others, emotionally, due to ones own deficits.
This would apply to all the PDs--- Co-dep, BPD, ASPD etc
The degree with which one is out of touch with one's emotions will vary in the various PDs .

ReplyDeleteNot all clinicians differentiate between psychopaths and socios. There is no benchmark that is accepted universally. Sociopath is often preferable simply because the "psycho" part confuses the lay folk into associating with psychosis and "insanity". It is mainly helpful for jurors so they arent tempted to excuse behaviors due to incorrect concepts of psychopaths being psychotic.
ReplyDeleteFor those who do distinguish between the two:
Sociopath accidentally hits someone with their car and coldly keeps on driving.
Psychopath accidentally hits someone with their car. They coldly stop and throw it into reverse and maybe let out a little giggle as they feel the bump as they run him over again.
What you just did was empathize, David.
ReplyDeleteDavid:
"But the butchery beheadings always upset me as I wouldn't wanne die that way because it' so humiliating."
Empathy:
the intellectual identification with or vicarious experiencing of the feelings, thoughts, or attitudes of another.

ReplyDeleteI am happy I am not a sociopath.
ReplyDeleteI was walking through Barnes and Noble the other day. I, of course, had to see if there was any new literature on psychopathy, my most favourite mental condition. While there, I saw rows and rows of over-priced books teaching the poor potential victims how to evade, escape, and expose their friendly, neighbourhood psychopath. And Sam Vaknin. It saddened me somewhat. So... Psychopaths, sociopaths, and normies... How would you feel if I or some other well-meaning individual wrote a book about psychopathy from the perspective of a psychopath?
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteNot necessarily empathy.
ReplyDeleteHe might just have some old-school notion of being virtuous and being seen as such. Decorum! Civilized! European! Class!
It might be more of a narc thing than an empathy thing.
Sara, the girl who threw the puppies into the river didn't seem full of rage to me. It's been a while since I saw that one though. She seemed fine from what I recall.
ReplyDeleteVideos of beheadings make me itch. Not literally, but that was the best way to describe my reaction. I remember having a sudden urge to scratch my neck. Empathy? Sympathy? Who knows. Who cares.
And apropos of nothing, I'm a fan of Mariah Carey's breasts.
it was like having a sudden urge...

Wrong. If you feel outraged, you feel outraged. Duh.
I respectfully disagree, Anonymous. I could feel outraged simply because it was my cat. I don't like my possessions getting broken by some malicious person any more than Johnny Normal. But I would never feel that for a cat, because I don't like cats, nor do I have any. Unless it's a kitten. Kittens, maybe.
ReplyDeleteTo comfort is an action. Genuine comfort implies that it is an action which does not seek to manipulate for nefarious purposes. I can give my children genuine comfort without sharing their emotions.

one cannot compare a pet to an ipod, or a car. an ipod and a car are actually useful. what the hell can you do with a pet?
Wait so sociopaths have emotions they are just shallow and not every sociopath is the same exactly just like serial killers differ?

@Michael
ReplyDeletelet's imagine you had a chance at becoming filthy rich, providing you opened up a store in china were they sell kittens to be consumed.
On a trip to your slaughter factory, you examine one of the many machines, were the kittens simultaneously have their throat sliced while still conscious.
Are you telling me that you would actually feel disgust, and not have anything to do with this food product? That's the vibe I'm getting. Personally, I'd only see the money. I wouldn't care about the animals.
