Anti-Social
In a world full of fears, perhaps the worst one a human being should
have is that to be afraid of his fellow man. The human that should be most feared is the one that
has Anti-Social Personality Disorder or in laymen’s terms the psychopath. The psychopath is probably the
most deviant mind that exists and treatment is not very successful because there is not a cure or drug
to control it. The solution in my mind to control the problem of sociopaths is to let them live in
colonies with each other. Through my research I will develop an understanding of this personality
disorder and convince you the reader that my solution might be a viable solution.
The sociopath is a combination of other mental illnesses that are incurred
in childhood as a result of heredity, trauma and the lack of emotional development. The lack of moral or
emotional development which gives a sociopath a lack of understanding for other people’s feelings which
enables them to be deceitful without feeling bad about whatever they do. The under developed emotional
system as explained in the video “The World of Personality Disorders volume 5” says the sociopath is
“emotionally retarded” . The sociopathic behavior problems that start as a child have links to
heredity, a family with a pre-disposition to perform crimes, alcoholic parents that do crimes,
irresponsible behavior that persists and parents that do not discipline. The child that will eventually
be a sociopath exhibits certain feeling inside that they are inadequate, shamed and because of that they
are teased and made fun of. The child characteristics of a future sociopath consist of being incapable of
following the rules. The youngster will skip school, bully, steal!
, torment animals, run away from home and the child is likely to develop Attention Deficit \Hyperactivity
Disorder or AD|HD. At an earlier age than their peer group the child will smoke drink, do drugs, and
become sexually active. The diagnoses of Anti-Social Personality Disorder is not used for people under
the age of 18.
The Psychopath is defined in the dictionary as a person suffering from,
especially a severe mental disorder with aggressive antisocial behavior which is a nice way of saying a
really bad and mean person. There are many characteristics of a sociopath and each sociopath has their
own special traits.

of a sociopath is so close to normal it is extremely hard to diagnose. A sociopath is a person that acts
against society and their sole purpose it seems is to act against the laws of the given land their end.
The sociopath will in most cases become violent and abuse drugs and alcohol to facilitate the violent
behavior. The violence in many cases is the result of sub-concious decisions that might lead to murdering
or assaulting someone for no reason. When a sociopath is attacking someone they will inflict more pain if
the victim fights back.
The lack of moral development lets the person feel no guilt or pain for what they did and quite possibly
feel great about their actions. A sociopath has little self regard for themselves and pays little
attention to their own personal safety when picking fights. Quite often they will be outsized and get
hurt. Some sociopaths are non-violent and stay out of prison by doing small crimes like swindling and
insurance fraud. It is possible that a sociopath will come from a normal home but their are more that do
not. A sociopath has the opposite morals of society and by doing things like beating up people that are
stronger than them they feel like they did something positive. A psychopath is very reactive and will
