There is a variety of circumstances that can contribute to sociopathy. Some people can experience trauma and still thrive socially. Others may be deeply affected by such experiences and become depressed, angry, addicted or suicidal adults. There are many cases where sociopaths have experienced no significant trauma at all.

Sociopathy is often a personality trait that may or may not be related to life experiences. If a person has a predisposition for sociopathy, any type of trauma is enough to trigger maladaptive and antisocial behavior. Many times, childhood abuse (even emotional abuse) is associated with personality disorders and sociopathy.

How do you get over a Sociopath?

Charming bastards, aren't they? And they take over your life so thoroughly they make you think it's your fault if you don't like it. Get some professional counseling, and cut the sociopath out of your life. No good can come from such a relationship.


What if two sociopaths were romanticly involved would it work better verses a sociopath with a normal person?

I am a diagnosed sociopath so I speak from my own experiences. We... we being sociopaths simply use people for our own gain and progression in life. Think of a predator hunting it's prey. If a sociopath is romantically involved with a sociopath it is likely to be shortlived since they will not have anything to offer. So really.... no. It's hard to describe and frankly if I were to meet another sociopath I would stay far away. Competition in my game... I don't need that.

Would a sociopath help his family out in a hostile situation say his mom being sexually assaulted?

It depends on how it would benefit him. I helped both my sister and my mum when they were abused, mainly because it would make my home life more bearable. It generally depends on the wants of the sociopath. If they need you then they will help you.
