I lived with her psychotic ass for 5 years, like the old
George Jones song says, the last thing I gave her was
the finger.

I am familiar with the DSM-IV profile and have known a few of these.

But, no I am not one of them.

From the stand point of a working health professional I find that to be as general and about as accurate as the horoscope in the weekly rag.

Shame is too many of our " medical texts " are just about that accurate as well.

Sans, That web page doesn't portend to be a research document. Everything defined in there is pretty much current Medical consensus (Re: APA) Albeit some of the current theories are debatable...

I have close relatives who worked daily with sociopaths... What's described in that page is reasonably accurate...


More so than the horoscope. But I will Add, I believe there are some attributes about birth signs.. Science has already shown the effect of galactic physical energy on biologics and even environments. Science cannot use horoscopes as a predictor of behavior, But I contend that it can be used to describe human inclinations of behavior, meaning that our biological states can feel and even succumb to the pressures of certain distribution of energy around us.


its a tall order, but to patently dismiss it..well... I'm glad Galileo took the time to challenge the king about our role with the sun 8)

Oh, look! there goes your credibility out the window!

BTW, my girlfriend, common-law-wife, (or whatever after nearly fifteen years) has a degree in psychology and worked with prisoners. I am pretty sure she knows what a sociopath is like. She doesn't just look up the DSM online. She owns one.

Dream On Mike. You don't have a girlfriend or a wife. You have a counselor. But,. you need Psychiatric help... She obviously doesn't qualify. The fact that she's living with you just illustrates another example of credibility flying out the window...

Whoops...Check Mate AGAIN!

I've been in bands with sociopaths. I don't hang with them very long.

"... One by one, from all corners of town, they came and ran to the building, where a man, balanced on a ledge, was looking down. They had insisted that they needed to get to him, to be with him....He called on all of them. Before the dawn, they all had finally reached him and joined up with him... " - Borrowed from an unknown author

I am sorry for you.
