The Phantom: Psychopath or sociopath?
Both are an antisocial personality disorder. BUT do they have some essential difference?
Someone's (I assume, uneducated) opinion on a discussion forum:
"Psychopaths usually don't kill! They lie and manipualte and have no emotions or feelings at all. They just pretend to be normal because they look at how normal people react on situations. Only the ones close to them see that something is wrong as they can be very horrible. Psychopaths are hardly ever (serial)killers, people tend to use this term incorrectly."
Another (I assume, uneducated) opinion:
"Some people use the term 'psychopath' when they mean 'sociopath'. Psychopaths literally cannot feel the same emotions we do, so they are unable to empathize. Sociopaths can feel a full range of emotions, but they don't empathize with others, so they don't hesitate to harm people."
Yet when I looked up, I find no article/site including educated analysis, that would seperate sociopath and psychopath in any such way as those opinions claim them to differ from each other. In fact, most information pretty much describe both the same way to a far extent. But why would there be two different terms then? What the hell?
And if there is an essential difference, which term fits Erik?
