Sociopaths aren't always "bad guys". The scary, violent murderers you see on TV only represent the very low-funtcioning end of the spectrum. Chances are you've met many sociopaths in your life. They blend, and many times maintain some semblance of a normal life.

Educate yourself.

Yes, it's incredibly rare, but yes. The sociopath is almost always the dominate personality, the second or other personalities being almost like internal victims, forced to see what the sociopath does without being able to respond until the switch. At least for me, both personalities are aware of the multiple, however only the "normal" empath personality, the secondary one that only rarely surfaces, can remember the events that my sociopathic one experienced. It's hard to explain what it feels like, as the Lizzy I want to tell people, I want to get help to make the other one go away and just be Lizzy. I want to get locked up or die or anything to get rid of Rachel. But as soon as I go back to the sociopath (rachel) I hate myself for thinking that, I hate myself for trusting, for being weak, for wanting to give away the secrets. I can only remember what happened when I was Lizzy for a few hours after the switch back then it's gone until I switch again.
