I am a highly functioning sociopath

The 10 signs of a sociopath.

by High Functioning Sociopath on Tuesday, November 6, 2012 at 9:15am ·

1. Sociopaths are charming. Sociopaths have high charisma and tend to attract a following just because people want to be around them. They have a "glow" about them that attracts people who typically seek guidance or direction. They often appear to be sexy or have a strong sexual attraction. Not all sexy people are sociopaths, obviously, but watch out for over-the-top sexual appetites and fetishes.
2. Sociopaths are more spontaneous and intense than other people. They tend to do bizarre, sometimes erratic things that most regular people wouldn't do. They are unbound by normal social contracts. Their behavior often seems irrational or extremely risky. Generally they cannot be read by most people due to their ever changing behaviour.
3. Sociopaths are incapable of feeling shame, guilt or remorse. Their brains simply lack the circuitry to process such emotions. This allows them to betray people, threaten people or harm people without giving it a second thought. They pursue any action that serves their own self interest even if it seriously harms others.
4. Sociopaths seek to dominate others and "win" at all costs. They hate to lose any argument or fight and will viciously defend their honour, even to the point of logical absurdity.
5. Sociopaths tend to be highly intelligent, but they use their brainpower to deceive others rather than empower them. Their high IQ's often make them dangerous. This is why many of the best-known serial killers who successfully evaded law enforcement were sociopaths.
6. Sociopaths speak poetically. They are master wordsmiths, able to deliver a running "stream of consciousness" monologue that is both intriguing and hypnotic. They are expert storytellers and even poets. 
7. Sociopaths never apologize. They often feel they are never wrong. They never feel guilt. They can rarely apologize. Even if shown proof that they were wrong, they will be reluctant to apologize and instead go on the attack.
8. Sociopaths can regress their state of mind rapidly. They often start off with small risks and erratic bahaviour which often leads to stronger and more heinous acts and even violence. If you anger or irritate a sociopath it can be very dangerous.
9. Sociopaths are secretive. They do not like their personal information to be commonly known or people asking them questions. They will often lie or deflect questions as to avoid giving away personal details.
10. Sociopaths are highly perceptive. They can notice the smallest thing or change in anything and remember most things they see and encounter.

Qoute #93

If you stopped worrying about tomorrow, wouldn't that give you more time to actually enjoy and savor today?

Trust your crazy ideas..

Your imagination is the preview to life's coming attractions.

if you have something to say to a loved one, don't wait until tomorrow. Too late comes sooner than later.


How will you change the world?

The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money or the most awards. They are the ones who care.

Live your life so that your children can tell their children that you not only stood for something wonderful- you acted on it.

Qoute #92

There has never been another you. 
You are once-in-all-history event. 
You are new nature.
You are one of a kind, no one can really predict the heights you may soar.
Even you will not know until you spread your wings. 
You may not be able to see your undeveloped potential, but its there - and its enormous.

Qoute #91

The tragedy of life does not lie in not reaching your goals, the tragedy lies in not having a goal to reach. 

It isn't a calamity to die with dreams unfulfilled, but it is a calamity not to dream.

It is not a disaster to be unable to capture your ideals, but it is a disaster to have no ideals to capture. 

It is not a disgrace not to reach the stars, but it is a disgrace to have no stars to reach.

Notes #2

11. Seeing - that is, the perceiving with the eyes - is easy. Observation - absorbing into your brain the data provided by your eyes- is much more taxing.

12. The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes.

13. The more you practice the skill, the more natural it will become. Just as important as developing your visual observation skills is improving your listening abilities.

Notes #1

1. Benedict Cumberbatch as a Holmes who oscillates between brooding moodiness one moment and manic energy the next. Is the epitome of geek sexiness.

2. Holmes fantastic feats of intellect of identikit celebrities, multi layered psychology have never seemed more fascinating.

3. You know a conjurer gets no credit when once he has explained his trick and if i showed you too much of my method of working, you will come to a conclusion that i am a very ordinary people after all. And even if he had shared, he had little faith in the ability of others to truly understand his methods.

4. A man should keep his little brain attic stocked with all the furniture that he is likely to use, and the rest he can put away in the lumber room of his library, where he can get it if he wants it.

5. A brain without a heart, as deficient in human sympathy as he was pre eminent in intelligence.

6. Holmes nestled somewhere uncomfortably. The ordinary, everyday world bored him, which could make him seem distant, disinterested and even callous. This was an unfortunate side effect of his on going quest for excitement, for the unusual, for the sort of problem that could only be solved by his particular type of mind...

7. It was work that imperilled his life but which fulfilled a deep seated need within him for intellectual challenge and heart stopping adrenalin rushes.
Being Holmes was no easy option, and to follow in his intellectual footsteps is not a journey for a fainted heart.

8. Like all great artist he lived for his arts sake.

9. How often is imagination the mother of truth.

10. the brain is incredibly durable and can grow and change to cope with any number of new demand made upon it.

Excerpt #6

51. You cant kill an idea, can you? He wants to destroy me inch by inch. Its a game, Lestrade, and not one i'm willing to play.

52. Sherlock: I don't care what people think.

Watson: You'd care if they thought you were stupid or wrong.

No, that would just make them stupid or wrong

Watson: Sherlock, i don't want the world believing you're.. A fraud.

Sherlock: you're worried they're right.. What? That they're right about me. That's why you are upset. You cant entertain the possibility they maybe right. Moriarty is playing with your mind too, cant you see whats going on.

Watson: no i know you for real.

Sherlock: 100%

Watson: well nobody could fake being such an annoying dick all the time.

53. Hes got my whole life story, that's what you do when you sell a big lie, you wrap it up in the truth to make it more palatable. It'll be your word against his. Hes been sowing doubt into peoples mind. There is only one thing he needs to do to complete his game and that..is to kill me.

54. You are wrong you know, you do count. You've always counted and I've always trusted you. But you were right i'm not okay.

55. Alone is what i have. Alone protects me.

56. All my life I've been searching for distraction  and you were the best distraction and now i don't even have you because I've beaten you. And you know what, in the end it was easy. Now ive got to go back playing with the ordinary people and it turns out you're ordinary, just like all of them. I know you'd fall for it, that's your weakness. You always want everything to be clever.

57. Sherlock: I don't have to die if i got you.I am you. Prepared to do anything. Prepared to burn. Prepared to do what ordinary people wont do. You want me to shake hands with you in hell? I shall not disappoint you.

Moriarty: i see you are not ordinary, you are me. As long as i'm alive you can save our friends, you've got a way out.

58. Watson: I'm angry.

Mrs. Hudson: Its okay john, there's nothing usual in that. That's the way he made everyone feel.

Excerpt #5

41. Mycroft: One lonely naive man desparately tries to show off and a woman clever enough to make him feel special.
Sherlock: you should screen your defense people more carefully
Mycroft: im not talking about MOd man, im talking about you
The promise of love, the pain of loss, the joy of redemption. Then give him a puzzle and watch him dance.
How quickly did you decipher that email for her?
Sherlock: was it a full minute
Mycroft: or were you really eager to impress?
Irene: i think it was less than five seconds.

42. Irene: The ice man and the virgin. Didnt even ask for anything, he just likes to cause trouble, now thats my kind of man.
Microft: and here you are the dominatrix who brought a nation to its knees.Nicely played.
Sherlock: no, you are carried away. The game was too elaborate, you were enjoying yourself too much. There is no such thing as too much. Enjoying the thrill of the chase is fine.craving the distraction of the game, i sympathise, but sentiment?
Sentiment is a chemical defect found in the losing side.
Irene: sentiment? What are you talking about?
Sherlock: you.
Irene: you dont actually think i was interested in you? Why? Because youre the great sherlock holmes? The clever detective in the funny hat?
Sherlock: no, because i took your pulse. Elevated. Your pupils dilated. I imagine watson thinks loves a mystery to me, but chemistry is incredibly simple and very destructive.when we first met, you told me that disguise is always a self portrait - how true of you. The combination to your safe, your measurements, but this is far more intimate, this is your heart, and you should never let it rule your head. Yu could have chosen a number and walked out with everything.but you couldnt resist it, could you? Ive always assumed that love is a dangerous disadvantage. Thank you for the final proof.
Irene: everything i just said, its not real.
Sherlock: yes i know, and thisis just losing.
TypeSherlock: i am sherlocked

43. Sherlock: why would it upset you?
Watson: just try to keep a low profile.

44. Watson:Look sherlock, we have to be rational about this. Ok now you, of all people, cant just.. Lets just stick to what we know, yes? Stick to the facts
Sherlock: once youve ruled the impossible, must be true.
Watson: what does that mean?
Sherlock: look at me.. Im afraid john.. Ive always been able to keep myself distant. Divorce myself from feelings. But look you see, bodys betraying me. Interesting, yes, emotions.

45. There are 2 types of fan
Type a: catch me before i kill again
Type b: your bedrooms just a taxi ride away.

46. Reporter: Theres all sorts of gossip in the press about you.
Sooner or later youre going to need someone on our side
Someone to set the record straight
Sherlock: you think youre the girl for that job, do you?
Report: Im smart, you can trust me...
Sherlock: good.. Well, look at me and tell me what you see.
If you are that skillful, you dont need an interview... You can just read what you need. I see someone whos hungry. I dont see smart. I dont see someone trustworthy. Ill give you a qoute. If you like. Three little words.
You repel me.

47. Every fairytale needs a good old fashion villian. You need me or youre nothing.
Bcoz we are just alike.

48. Aren't ordinary people adorable.

49. I want to solve the problem. our problem. the final problem. its gonna start very soon sherlock... the fall. but dont be scared, Falling is just like flying, except there's a more permanent destination.

Qoute #90

Even if you dont speak
Even if you cant tell
I know in my heart
I should no longer seek
For i found sense to life
Just by looking at your eyes

Good night to darkness
Hello to light
For even if i fall asleep
I know ill wake up alive

=======

I usually see love deep within your eyes
Its the best way to see your soul
And i know and feel that what ive got now is real
That i know if time comes ill completely fall in love with you
You will never leave like everyone else did...

You are my yin yang, i cant be symmetrical without you
I love you!!

Qoute #89

Gratitude to my yin yang - thank God i found you

the good hands have held me to see how beautiful life could be
the better hands let me see the other side of me
but the best hands are the ones i know ill keep forever
the days keep passing by and i am afraid
that when i wake up i wont see your pretty face
i gaze at the mirror and i saw no one else
but a reflection of a young woman
looking towards me telling me "you are a lucky"
i thank her and bid goodbye
and when i turn back i saw you in dark shadows
waving and saying hi
"hello to the sun,to the flowers that bloom,
look at the cat in your window,
smell the air we both breathe
and keep close to me that youll promise
youll always be by my side
as for today is another day
and ill see you when i sleep"

  ===

Thank the Good Lord that ive met you!!! My yin yang!
my yin is one of the best feeling ever
my first experience to being in love

my yang is a little bit better
but my yang had been a very tough one

i wrote this down on one of my blogs before about my yin and my yang
and the struggle to find the yin yang

and i was lucky i met you!!

but then again the events wasnt that smooth at first
and im still afraid that even though i finally met my yin yang
i still dont guarrantee myself i wont be alone
either you leave or i leave, i die or one of us would

but even though ill be alone, if that would be my destiny
i will still be thankful for having met you :)

that when i die, i know im fulfilled
and that i have experience to finally being with my yin yang :)

thats far more better than not been given the chance to have met you :)
the best, the yin yang!!

 

Qoute #88

In a glimpse of an eye
It will change everything
I dont know how to adopt right now
And Im afraid i cant handle it
But with your hands in mine
I know there is nothing to worry about

Hold me close dont let me go
Live with me in my memory
Keep me sane always

For tomorrow is another day
To write another story

===

i know that in life

people come and go

and that things are changing

and that is something you cannot control

mostly all the time

changes are really hard and that

it can consume you as a person

changes, pressures, stress

this are some of the things i know are hard to handle

but i know that with God and with

all the people who cares for me

i know that ill be good

that i dont have to worry about a thing

i wish that these people wont leave me

like some of them do

so as to keep me alive

i wish that they will always be there for me

and that they wont leave me again

because i know everyday

will be different

and everyday will always be special

Qoute #87

Today i never seen the sun
and i walk in the rain
i fall in my knees as i stepped on a rock
i stopped and stare, wishing you could save me from dying
why do we have to be like this?!

i wish that when the rain stop
the first thing i see
was the sun shining bright
as i hold your hand like it would never rain again...

=============

Today marks the day that i fall in love with you

but i know i cant have you

if destiny permits that youll be mine

i will never let you go

-crisena

Qoute #86

when i close my eyes i fall asleep
in my dreams i hold your hand
i kiss your tender lips
my fingers running in your hair
so soft i cant resist
i wake up to think that if dreams do come true
then why cant i tell you?

Qoute #85

There are times that i miss someone but i need not to tell them

Because telling them would only complicate things

Telling them would only hurt me

I am so afraid to try again....

I am so afraid that someone will leave me in the grave again..

dead and helpless...
