Sociopath: Inside the Mind of a Sociopath
Take a Glimpse Inside the Mind of a Sociopath...* * *Download for FREE on Kindle Unlimited + Free BONUS Inside!* * *From the ~Personality Disorders and Mental Illnesses~ collection and the award winning writer, Paul Sorensen, comes a masterful explanation into the mind of a sociopath! "An excellent depiction of the modern day sociopath!" - Alex Lemmings, Book CritiqueThink of sociopaths, and what’s the first thing that enters your mind? The soulless murderer, lurking in the shadows? Or perhaps you think of the ruthless business man turned hardened criminal, a modern day depiction in recent movies and media.You’d probably be surprised to know that you’ve met a sociopath already, at least one. Are they your classmate, colleague, friend, or even lover? The thing about sociopaths that so few realize is that they are chameleons, masters at blending in. Unless you know them intimately, you will have no idea what’s going on behind the charming façade.In the real world, sociopaths are far more likely to lie to family members, steal from workplaces, cheat on their partners, abuse drugs, and commit fraud, than they ever are to murder someone.Although not all actions by a sociopath are criminal, many are what society considers immoral, and you remain unaware of the sociopaths in your own life at your peril. In this book you will learn what a true sociopath is like, how to recognize them, and how to deal with them – especially if they cannot be avoided. I also discuss how to help yourself heal after you come out the other side.Is there a cure, or even any hope for sociopaths? The short answer is ‘we don’t know’, but there’s a lot more to it than that, and forewarned is forearmed. Don’t let yourself become the next to be manipulated, lied to, or even assaulted or have your life destroyed by the sociopath you know.Topics of Discussion ✓ What is Sociopathy? ✓ Sociopathic Personalities ✓ How to Recognize a Sociopath ✓ Surviving a Sociopath ✓ Clinical Sociopathy ✓ The Cause of Sociopathy ✓ Is there a Cure? ✓ BONUS!

Easy to read and gives the basics of what a sociopath/psychopath is, what to look for and how to protect yourself.
If you don't know what a sociopath is, this is a quick way to come up to speed.

Sociopath Basics
This is a fun little read about the basic of the sociopathic personality. This is a topic I have always found intriguing because the idea that 5here are people out there with a complete inability to experience empathy is so alien to the point where it’s truly difficult for me to imagine such a creature. And yet, by all accounts they are out there. I just wished they glowed in the dark.

Super Insightful and straight to the point!
Super short and easy read packed with tons of information on how a sociopath works, why they are the way they are, how to interact with one and certain precautions you should take when you find yourself engaged with one. One major thing that stuck out to me is that just like we cannot turn off our emotions, (love, kindness) a sociopath cannot turn ON emotions. They can only role play and basically imitate others’ behaviors. That is super helpful when realizing it’s literally how the brain is wired. You have to be careful with sociopaths no matter what!

An informative introduction to Sociopathy
This book is short and to the point. It will leave the reader informed about sociopaths; what they are, how to spot them, and why one should beware them. It's a good introduction to the subject for those who don't know much about it, and it's a quick reminder for those who do. I think everybody should know about sociopathy, because otherwise, if they ever get deeply involved with such an individual, they might get hurt over and over and not understand what the real issue is....

Intriguing. Scary. Short read.
This book is very informative and goes in depth of what research is out and the understanding of the mind and behaviors. It is a quick read, but packs a lot into such a small book.
Answered some of my questions, but I have so many still unanswered as I’m sure we all do who dive into topics like this and want to understand not only the behaviors but the science and the facts behind what truly makes a sociopath….

Well written and truly informative
This book helped me better understand the traits of sociopathy, which confirmed my suspicions of a sociopath I unwittingly invited into my life some 14 years ago. While the relationship lasted only two years, she is still creating a living hell for my wife and me and will not let go. Recommended reading!

very helpful information
I read this book because I’ve found myself in a friendship with someone who is a sociopath. This book helped me better understand this person and why they did what they did. The book is easy to understand and full of valuable information. I’m better equipped to spot this behavior in the future.

WOW! This is actually a bit terrifying. Have you ever met anyone you thought might be a sociopath? Then this book is for you, or not. I was trembling in fear after reading it, and I worked in mental health for 20 years.

Giving light to the dark
I have read this book, and it's helped me enormously to look inwards and realising that I have certain trait's of sociopathy in myself

Decent quick read
Content was averaged. Found it to be repetitive but overall decent. I noticed a few grammatical errors that were a little bit distracting. Overall, this was a decent read for those just learning about this disorder.

Very helpful
Sadly, this book described people in my life, even my family. After reading it, I will stop blaming myself for everything and "accept the things I cannot change."

Good read, quick and easy to follow.
It was enjoyable. I wanted it to be a bit longer of a book, but it was still a good read.

More of a Cliffnotes Version
This was somewhat interesting, but after reading another very well written book on sociopaths, this more or less simply explained the disease, the steps by which it is identified, and only gives one example of a true sociopath. There are much better books out there.

Very helpful in understanding what a sociopath is thinking. Makes me more determined to get a loved one out of this situation.
