Understanding Male Sociopaths In Relationships -Psychotherapy Crash Course

[@gia9298.]

I'm married to a sociopath, and he's not a criminal, on drugs, or angry. He works hard 10 hours a day. He does display odd calmness. Does have a porn addiction. Never says I love you to me, but heard him mutiple times says it to his mom/family. Often times I feel like I'm married to a business deal. I've seen him get satisfaction off people's misery. Annoying me is also a big issue as he seems to like it. Most times I'm abandoned by him, but living in the same house. I'd say, its like being married to a corpse

[@TherapistTamaraHill]

That's terrible. I'm sorry. Is he a self or familt-diagnosed sociopath? Ir did a mental health professional diagnose him? What I want to decipher for everyone on the channel is certain diagnoses from sociopathy because the behaviors mentioned here could be another diagnosis too.🤷‍♀️

[@gia9298.]

@@TherapistTamaraHill Not as an adult. He was diagnosed with ODD (Oppositional defiant disorder) and ADHD as a child. He's eerily calm in the most stressful situations. He kinda reminds me of Chris Watts. Nice looking and appears humble on the surface, but will tell me that he's twisted/dark on the inside.

[@TherapistTamaraHill]

That's disturbing for sure. I understand why you would think this.

[@texas-red538]

Wow sounds like someone I have known for 12 years, but im not the one married to him. Feel bad for his wife!!!! Sad.

[@CindieBe]

@@gia9298. Most sociopaths will only get diagnosed once they're in jail, sometimes if someone close to them urges them to go, but that's super rare. Maybe your husband is closer to the low to middle part of the sociopathic spectrum... Unless he does high key crimes, he's probably not ever getting diagnosed. He will probably think therapy is a waste of time too. The only way to convince them is if you make it a condition for something he wants really bad through negotiation. Lol much love to you girl!

[@valerieangell7588]

😅I was involved with a man who one night after drinking a bit too much,informed me that he had been diagnosed as ASPD.Huh?So I looked it up.Oh…not so good,right?However since in was in the beginning of the relationship,he was treating me wonderfully and we were happening as a couple.I hadn’t had so much fun in ages!But as time went on,there were so many instances of him behaving in a sociopathic manner,I realized that his slip that night was,in fact,the truth.So I began to plot my exit from the situation,carefully,since I had no desire to get myself beat up.We went our separate ways many years ago,though we still remain friends,or at least friendly.He didn’t remember telling me that he had ASPD,the knowledge of that giving me the ability to stay ahead of the situation to a degree.

Honestly, that was so helpful and clear. My ( just divorced) Ex husband had all of these traits except he was financially independent - however, he was parasitic as in he lived here but expected me to maintain house and family so he could play roles of husband and father though he betrayed us in all ways. 14 months after he is out after23 years and three kids and recovery is full time for me. Getting better everyday but out of the fog and the clarity brought so much trauma. Thanks for your help,. Clarity had been soooo important and understanding him helps me to break my attachments.

My ex is a sociopath with bipolar disorder as he was diagnosed while in prison. I always knew he was very abnormal early on. He very obsessed with porn, sex, drugs. He was a financial predator and drained my finances in the thousands always promising to pay me back, never happened. Also he threatened suicide, which I found out is a sociopathic trait. Very degenerate toxic behavior which I will never ever tolerate again from anyone

[@thurston4mor]

Very good explanations It would be good to add how , why the sociopath mind can’t process and why they do what they do. Like when the get the rush the dangerous situations, it’s bc they can’t feel compassion empathy, which is integral to humans respecting humans. They need self fulfilment to feel good , and not share with others. Which is selfish

[@pandemicneetbux2110]

They rarely feel any emotions or bonds to anything and so you can imagine it as coming home to a silent empty apartment every day for the rest of your life. That's what a sociopath looks like on the inside, and so as a result of that, and their overall numbness to everything, they usually tend to engage in much more frequent and extreme behaviors because of a fundamental need for stimulation; the eternal enemy of the sociopath is actually boredom. Boredom, annoyance, and tedium is literally the lives of sociopaths and psychopaths no matter how much chaos and bizarre behavior they leave in their wake, and that is because they're literally too numb and bored all the time to actually notice how dramatically severe the bizarre behavior really is and the impact it's having on people. 8:45 lol it's like she's just discovering white people. No, Asians and white people legitimately just do things like that. It really depends on the person and how extreme though, like many women like things like cuffs, not a ton of people actually use paddles or something and leave welts. What I will say in terms of that sort of stuff it is definitely a thing of extremes, like how it is very different between the ordinary drunk who likes to either get pleasure from alcohol or numb their pain, versus that psychotic trailer park shit where they always get black out drunk and start violent fights. There's a huge difference between having a bit of a substance issue, and having a comorbid SUD, and the way how sociopaths more or less are using it either as the means to self control and/or as a surrogate for real depth of emotions in order to give their lives meaning. They tend toward taking everything to its very extreme, much like the chaos and drama around them, and that is why they often cut so striking a figure and become so intensely alluring to so many people that live by the rules is because they can kind of take you for the ride and sometimes make you "feel" "safe" even while doing the stupidest, craziest, riskiest shit. They do not get any real self fulfillment out of this bargain for the same specific fact that there's no real depth to them, at least not without the most extreme behaviors. So reading a good book and petting the cat may be nice to you, for them maybe they'll go and join ISIS or fight for Ukraine that summer. The problem is neurotypical people are at such a complete disconnect of the lived experience I think it's hard for either them or sociopaths and clinical psychopaths to sort of bridge that divide and translate their minds to each other, as the words don't share the same meaning, if you get me. The emotional gravity of words means nothing and has no feeling to them, in the same way as you, though they are aware by experience and observation of the impact deeply emotional wording is having on others. Their brains just process things differently. Big difference though with sociopath and clinical psychopath, as I think sociopaths actually can appreciate a thing like awe or love given the right condition (although they may well need copious amounts of drugs to get them there, idk) but a psychopath is fundamentally lacking in those brain structures. Think of it as the difference between a guy who spent most of his life using a scooter, versus a guy that was born without legs. The one dude *can* at least in theory actually get about and become more mobile with enough practice, he may always suck at it compared to normal people who didn't let their legs atrophy for the last 30 years riding a scooter, but he can at least train himself to not only appear but functionally be like normal people given the time and effort. Not so with the psychopath. He's literally just not got his legs. And so because of this his arms can be buffed and his upper body is strong af, he can even move around using crutches, but it's all functionally unique to him and he's moving in a way that is not you or I. It also definitely depends on the individual, the basic condition is just inner paucity, a sort of lack of emotion and empathy, a longstanding boredom and disregard for others, and it's pretty much just those clusters of problems that are very diffferently expressed depening on the individual.

[@nameherenamehere9221]

Mine was a career criminal, started as a juvenile. He managed to beat a case right before I met him for stealing someone’s car, who owed him money for drugs. He also confided in me that someone died because of a illegal substance that he sold them that killed him. I also heard that at least one other person died at his hands. He sold the worst drug known to man. I spent hours, probably months of my life explaining to him that he was not going to be Scarface, and would end up dead, or in jail. He himself overdosed on the substance he was selling, because he mixed it with alcohol, and his roommate called an ambulance and saved his life. Within the first year of our relationship, he asked me to borrow a total of $100,000, I did not give it to him. He asked me to borrow $20,000 3 times, and $5000 3 to four times. He stole my car, drunk and high, and that was the last straw for me I checked out. And then attempt to manipulate me. He started going to AA and stop drinking. I now know that he is a sociopath, and him not drinking, is not going to make that go away. I do believe that this disorder comes from genetics, but I also believe it’s circumstance, and a survival mechanism. I broke up with them and we are done. I will never date someone like this again. I looked back and cannot believe how dumb I was.

[@pickledsoap5023]

What about a sociopath that makes a lot of money, and tries to manipulate potential partners to travel and make just as much. For a big goal? Is this common, and also really tries not to lie but does not care about others emotions

Sorry this is so long.. guess I need to vent.. I've been stuck on a guy for all my adult life - 6 years. I think he's a sociopath. I said no to marrying him which I'm sure he only asked b/c he can use me for my money, name, Home, etc. I was attached to another for a year or 2 before. Hes in prison for 40 years for horrific things. The current guy I only got attached to after he raped me then sodimkzed me another day. Constantly cheated on girls. Hits women. Drives SO SO SO reckless. Even when it's not his car. Losses job after job mainly due to his attitude & disrespect. Disrespectful to the MAX & doesn't care. Even when I've made sure he's not homeless, has transportation, etc etc etc. Makes me feel like trash. Snaps all the time for no reason. Tells me its a personal problem. I could go on & on. Entitled to everything of mine - money, furniture, home, my name, time. If I don't put my own $,job, etc at risk for small or big things for him, I'm the bad guy. Always the victim. In and out of jail. Blames me for his own doings like him losing his car keys. & you wonder why I got attached I know lol. B/c I was so lost, lonely, naive, on drugs, & i have a huge heart. But i have finally started the process of detachment. It's harder for me b/c for 6 years I've only had him & am slowly building an emotional support system. The disrespect was so horrific while I was doing SO much for him & for so long & it got physical & it was easy for me to detach (but still had contact b/c he lived in my apt that he paid no bills in) but then he got locked up & I wanted to help.

Amy,hi. I hear your pain. But you are Extremely Vulnerable . You must detach from him for your own SAFETY. Otherwise he could seriously hurt or kill you. He sounds very dangerous. If he doesn't physically destroy you,he will wreck your emotional, spiritual and mental and moral being. It is very difficult to detach, because they are Extremely talented at playing victim. He is not the victim. He is the Perpetrator!. He will think he owns you, and when you tell him he doesn't,he will become a low down vicious slanderer. He will try everything to wreck your life,as he has others. You are Extremely wise to have not married him or had a baby together. If you do end up sleeping with him( which I Strongly Advise against) make sure that you're on two forms of birth control. Otherwise you'll be in for 21+ yrs of hell. My heart breaks for you. I know he has made you feel dirty and worthless,that's how they break you down,so that you think you deserve it and won't go anywhere. He is Grooming you. Please, please, please get away from him. And if he's given you any devices,or had access,Get Rid of them! Spyware and Stalkerware cannot always be erased with a factory reset, because it gets too deep into the code .I didn't get rid of mine,and he found out every single place I lived/ moved three or four times, and he found me each time. Don't make my mistake,make a clean getaway for your own safety. I'm so very sorry that you've been through this. Don't let him give you son stories.Go to Love Fraud.com. They are experienced with these people and will wholeheartedly support you. Build a support system,you will need it. Warn everyone in your life not to give him any info and warn Drs, bosses, and your family that he may be out to ruin you. Please be careful, and don't date anyone new until you've gotten over the trauma . I'm sending you my support and I'm sending you a big hug. You are not alone. Take it from someone who's been through this three times . I wish you the best, and send you light peace and positivity. You're strong. Don't let him get the best of you. You Are Worth it.

[@TherapistTamaraHill]

You're welcome! I would seek out a psychologist or therapist who specifically treats personality disorders. Someone who clearly understands and treats borderline personality, narcissism, and other personality disorders is likely your best bet. It's very easy to find a therapist who claims they treat personality disorders just because they have attended a workshop or a course on it. But treating personality disorders really is a "career journey." I would seek out a specialist.

[@TherapistTamaraHill]

This is a good question. Let me just clarify that children cannot be diagnosed as sociopaths because their personality isn't fully developed --- including their brain. However, kids who show very strong traits of pathological lying, manipulation, anger, defiance, criminal behaviors, and sometimes symptoms of ADHD are diagnosed with conduct disorder. This is very similar to the diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder. Once a child begins struggling in this way, it can be difficult to get them help. A lot goes into this diagnosis. I may bring a video to the channel regarding this.

After two months I recovered from my illness. At first, since I didn’t realize that my old neighborhood friend was a controlling narcissistic friend who wanted to hurt me by keeping me away from my puppy! He took me to the shelter when it was closed. I was so codependency that I went along with his demands. I finally dropped him! I lost my dog cuz my veterinarian bullied me. He wanted money and I didn’t realize that he hated me and my Pit Bull/German Shepard puppy! He illegally sent her to the shelter without a signed document. They called me to get her, but I wanted Roger to take me over there. I wasn’t in a healthy state of mind either! She was my pride and joy, for the love of God I didn’t protect her from danger! I had blurry boundaries. I have realized dogs are like children. I will never trust a Veterinarian or Kennels that board dogs. Homeless people take better care of their dogs than people sometimes in big homes. At least homeless people exercise their dogs! When I returned to the shelter, they told me that they put her down.

I remember seeing a client struggling with this same dilemma in 2018 and she said the same exact thing you are saying. Within a matter of 10 months, she realized that her children weren't as safe or well-off as she thought living in the same home as her narcissistic spouse.
