Psychopaths are pleasure seekers. Regret for themselves perhaps, but not shame or remorse. Low or non-existent anxiety... high excitement.
Sociopaths have no remorse or shame either, they have regret... but their anxiety is very high as well as their excitement, and they're more prone to rage and less calculating. That's the way I see it.
Talk to one that has been incarcerated or institutionalized. They express shame and remorse but it is only for them selves, none for society.
On a side note, anybody have any thoughts on the Macdonald triad as a predictor?
Any other thoughts on genetic vs environment?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
