On Remorse

It is well known that psychopaths lack remorse for their antisocial actions.  However, I fail to see why remorse is necessary to the human condition.  Remorse is a feeling state.  As with all feeling states, it passes.  Therefore, many are assigning arbitrary weight to a transient emotion.  Those that place value on remorse suggest that […]

Dilution – ASPD as a Disorder

I keep reading posts on social media where neurotypicals are trying to dismiss ASPD symptoms as unnecessary for someone to be antisocial.  “Before you stigmatize those with ASPD, remember that there are those out there that are behaving prosocially and are just trying to make it through each day,” is a common refrain.  This is […]

Disasterpeace – More on the Failings of Psychopath / NT Alliances

I am skeptical of any so-called alliance bewteen neurotypicals and psychopaths.  While I have written before on the preposterous nature of such an alliance – as it makes a fool out of both the psychopath and the neurotypical – I believe that such an alliance is impossible anyway.  That does not mean that there cannot […]

Flying too Close to the Sun

I get it.  It is painful to get close to someone only to realize that they do not differentiate between you and a pile of dirt.  It shakes the soul to know that someone that you care about not only does not reciprocate your feelings but led you on under false pretense.  It hurts to know […]

Pump My Stomach, I’ve Been Drinking Poison Again

The neurotypical is not completely unlike the psychopath when it comes to taking responsibility.  Sure, maybe they are willing to take responsibility for a fuck-up at work or a missed appointment, but they never take responsibility for their own self-inflicted wounds.  I’m thinking primarily of interpersonal relationships gone south.  A relationship should be ended whenever a party […]

Neurocide

Please stop with the romantic gaze toward the antisocial spectrum.  As much as those on the antisocial spectrum do not care to live life any other way, we must keep in mind that the ‘disorder’ – called such for a reason – causes some real inconveniences at times for those with the disorder as well […]

Maybe Psychopathy and Cluster B Forums are Needed After All

I know that I recently said that I was done with administering forums, and that they offered little objective value once they became full-fledged echo chambers.  Well, I changed my mind again.  I’ve listed the reasons why “recovery” sites with their discussion boards tend to be shitholes, but I think that the jury may still […]

Are There Differences Between Sociopaths and Psychopaths?

What are the differences between sociopaths and psychopaths?  Nothing and everything, as it all depends on what is meant by each term.  To continue we need to create an unambiguous framework for each term.  According to Kent Kiehl, PhD, there are no differences between sociopaths and psychopaths because they both measure the same thing – […]

Willfully Deaf – Psychopath and Neurotypical Relations

I am fairly open with my psychopathy with those that deserve to know – namely close friends and acquaintances.  I am open because I have become tired of masking.  If the close friend or acquaintance is as close as I believe them to be, then they should be able to accept me in a state […]

Why Psychopath Recovery Sites are Flawed

There are a seemingly infinite number of websites for those seeking to recover from abusive relationships.  Of these, a non-trivial number focus on relationships in which the “survivor” swears that their ex must have been a “psychopath.”  This is asinine for two reasons: by sheer probability, the odds that such an abusive relationship was with […]
