4. Easily angered or irritated

No. 4 on our list on how to spot a sociopath is a sign that may often be pretty noticeable. Unlike other people who experience multiple emotions such as happiness, fear, sadness, anger, and guilt, a sociopath may only have access to a few.

According to experts, anger is one of the most easily accessible emotions for those with antisocial personality disorder. No matter if it’s in their relationships, work, or daily lives, sociopathic people can be easily irritated and angered. They are also prone to aggression, yelling, or outbursts when upset.

Moreover, when someone else sees through their facade, a sociopath will exhibit aggression or resort to bullying or intimidation.

  1. This makes total sense. Sociopaths can be very charming, but once that mask comes off, watch out!!! and yes they do like to hold positions of power. They can be very successful, but they tend to be quite ruthless as well which is why they get to the top I suppose. With that being said, they do not have to many friends as a rule and the only ones they do have, usually are paid to be around, not true friends. I would like to see an article comparing Sociopaths to Narcissist, I believe they have some of the same traits!

  2. Studying insight has always been helpful for me; because of characteristics from others. Some females of age have the twisted mental obsession of Narcissistic issues I’ve experienced.

  3. So… It turns out that just about every single person I know is a sociopath. I knew the problem was them and not me.

  4. My question is, what personality type is the person that is continually drawn in by sociopaths? Asking for a friend…… No, really, every relationship I have ever had has been a narcissist at best, sociopath at worst. Why me?
