About How sociopathy works, according to a diagnosed sociopath

In this insightful video, Patric Gagne, author of "Sociopath: A Memoir," shares her personal journey as a diagnosed sociopath. From childhood, she noticed her emotions differed from those around her, leading to efforts to hide her true nature to blend in. The video explores her experiences, including acting out through breaking into homes and car theft to cope with the pressure. Gagne delves into the distinctions between sociopathy and psychopathy, referencing characters like Wednesday Addams and Dexter. As a former therapist with a doctorate in clinical psychology, she offers advice on discussing sociopathy with loved ones.
