344. Sociopathy

We’ve all heard the term thrown around – in books, in TV dramas, in news articles – we’re taught to be scared of it. But rarely do we consider what it actually means. In today’s bonus episode, we take a look at sociopathy.

We explore:

• Differentiating sociopathy and psychopathy
• Common misconceptions
• Early origins of the term
• The role of self-awareness and masking in sociopathy
• Whether all sociopaths are bad
• Treatments and management for sociopathy
