Been diagnosed with aspd 3 times now.

However I don't see myself as a "sociopath" is described. I do fit the criteria for the personality disorder which is why I was diagnosed multiple times.

But, I am only 20. I feel like a normal person, I don't believe I am so dysfunctional.

I am a loner by nature really. I prefer to be alone most of the time but do enjoy socializing at times. I like to play with people's emotions because I find that funny. And I am on trial for a crime.

But other than that I don't feel like an infallible sociopath like I see others behave. I am just egocentric and mischievous loner
Thanks for this!

Hello TheRealOne: I noticed this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to Psych Central.

Here are links to 3 articles, from Psych Central's archives, on the subject of ASP:

Antisocial Personality Disorder Symptoms

Antisocial Personality Disorder Treatment

Surprising Myths & Facts About Antisocial Personality Disorder

I hope you find PC to be of benefit.

Somebody who has ASPD isn’t necessarily a sociopath. Sociopathy is merely a sub category of ASPD. It could be possible that you are not a sociopath and merely have the disorder.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
