I feel the need to help others, I mean For gods sakes I don't even meat or animal products, I'm focusin my life career on helping others.

However, I did something Bad a while ago. The thing is I don't feel any remorse, I don't feel bad about what I did. I just feel guilty, but not even for doing it to the other person, I feel sorry for myself.

I really don't know what's wrong with me.

If it came down to it I would do some dark stuff to get what I want.

But only part of me feels that way, the other part wants to help others. It doesn't feel to two different people, just one person. Me. I'm the one person.

Please help.

No, you're not a sociopath. If you were you wouldn't have posted this message. Beyond that, I'm not sure that I can provide anything to help, other than recommending that you see a professional if this continues to worry you.

You contradict yourself when you say you don't feel any remorse but you feel guilty. Sounds to me like your far from a sociopath because frankly they would not give a damn [period]. That you feel the need to ask and seek advise shows some sort of conscience or a inner compass. Perhaps what you felt was not guilt at all. It's possible for you to not feel guilty and think you do because in reality guilt to you may be fear of getting caught, sorry you did not get away with some thing, embarrassment, or even shame. None of those are guilt. The wanting to help others thing really throws me! I was beginning to think you sound more like a narcissist but they would only help others to make themselves look good or for some direct benefit and advantage. You also sound like you could be doing some splitting which would make you more borderline then narc or perhaps both. Or none of the above.

These are just ideas, thinking out loud, not a diagnosis. You really should see a therapist to really find out what's going on if you care enough about it.

Most of your post points in the opposite direction. Now put me in place of you.
"Helping others"? Umm...no
"Making a career of helping others"? hahahaha...no
"No remorse" Yep
"I feel guilty" ???Guilty??? what is that?
"To get what I want"? Pretty much anything.
