Is it a bit sociopathic if i can control everything about myself?

8 Comments

Not sure if this is a new level of control freak. I can control everything about myself. Every urge, desire, thought, feeling. I can switch it on and off at will. If I am doing something evil, I can switch off as well. If I am crying, I am aware I am crying and can switch off and return back to normal that instant. Even when in the moment during sex, I can turn off if I wanted to. I think one time I actually did. Freaked out the girl. I can even control my personality. Be nervous, confident, humble, egoistic. Or voice.

During everything I do, every second, every moment there is someone in my mind watching over me, in grim fashion, with his hand on a switch labeled 'on,' 'off' and 'change to.'

I am a mid-twenties guy.

    No. They don't call it sociopathic anymore. They call it anti social personality disorder. APD for short.

    First of all people with APD do have feelings. They just have extremely shallow feelings that are almost always self centered. They're manipulators and users.

    Second of all people with APD are impulsive. You don't sound at all impulsive. They are. They tend to have sex problems, drug problems, eating disorders, etc.

    APD is more of a mindset then anything else. People with that mindset think they're better than the rest of the society and therefore simple laws don't apply to them.

    You just sound like a normal man of above average intelligence. Pretty much any man with average brain power can turn his emotions off at the drop of a hat. Only people who don't understand why they feel what they feel have trouble controlling emotion.

    Do you use your powers to control/manipulate other people? I think that is the true mark of being a sociopath.

    No, I wouldn't say you are sociopathic, just aware of your emotions and body functions. Everything you mentioned on here are things I myself can do and I'm certainly not a sociopath, despite what some like to believe on here because they got their psychology degree from TV shows. (Lol)

    Alright, as someone already said, if you are a sociopath, they call it Antisocial Personality Disorder (AsPD for short). Someone with AsPD can't feel empathy for others. You don't display not being able to feel empathy; just being aware of your emotions and being able to turn them on/off. This can come from past trauma or just an innate ability. You also don't sound manipulative, whereas someone with AsPD is a charmer and very manipulative. I think you're just able to control your emotions better than most.

      I am a charmer. Manipulation... I have to try VERY hard to not manipulate people. If I let myself be natural I end up manipulating them.

        Then you may have it. I don't know, I'm not a psychiatrist, but possibly.

    Don't worry, this happens to me to. I'm aware of everything I do and can change my personality and feelings.
