Signs Of A Sociopath

Can Be Impulsive

Sociopaths can be impulsive and reckless in their behaviors. Though they may appear intelligent, manipulative, and intensely rational, they may also engage in irrational behaviors and tendencies. In fact, many who meet the 'sociopath' label will struggle with addiction at some point in their lives. Compulsive behaviors may lead them to engage in drug abuse, alcohol abuse, dangerous sex practices, or gambling. They may also be impulsive in how they react to others, with some of their behaviors being explosive or volatile rather than enacted with consideration for the consequences. Not all impulsive behaviors will result in addiction. It's possible for an individual to do hard drugs or engage in unprotected sex without having a mental dependence on such practices. But sociopaths may feel as though they're 'missing' something, like they're devoid of human connection and happiness. When addictive behaviors fill the emptiness, it's easy to develop a mental dependence. Sociopaths also might struggle to care about the concerns of others because it doesn't bother them to worry other people.
