You fit more sociopathic traits then Aspie traits. For me, My alexithymia is kinda like a slot machine (Not a rigged one) You never know if you getting the right one. There is a certain point where if I feel too much I realize what it is. I can tell there is something there though so it isn't alexithymia. There is always emotion you just can't recognize it. a Psychopath is the polar opposite of Autism, at least the Empathy part. Therefore it is impossible to be both. So We roll out autism. So you're not Autistic. You're just a psychopath/sociopath who says they are.

Hey Pieplup. Sorry we've miscommunicated. Plz read through this thread and especially my intro post I'm being very up front and honest that I think I'm both a sociopath and an aspie. I'm here just tryign to figure myself out to confirm both as close to 100% as possible. And yeah I am pretty sure it's possible to be both the two conditions are orthogonal but it's a 1 in 10000 unlikely and kinda weird combination
I doubt that. You might have sensory issues, but I doubt you're aspie. I can't imagine why it would be possible.

I had an Aspie friend (who I thought was a friend) a little while ago and he also said he had no feelings. He thought it was ok to use people for what he needed out of them and then to just end the friendship when it was of no more use to him. I asked him did he know how much hurt he was causing these people (some of these friendships lasted 4 yrs)? I said those people must have been traumatized and that it's too bad that he couldn't feel just once how much pain he was causing these people. He actually got mad at me and said "do you wish to cause me pain?!" He said that one time he had "made" himself feel this sort of pain and it was "excruciating" (which goes back to the article I posted on psychopaths being able to turn on and off their empathy feelings). He said that he never wanted to feel that pain again, yet it was ok for him to cause other people this type of pain as long as he got what he wanted out of them and he wasn't having to deal with the "excruciating" pain. Who would want to change that? It's the best of both worlds - get what you want and have no hard feelings about it. He didn't want to change and learn how not to hurt people. That's what I call a real as*hole and I am glad to be rid of him. I feel sorry for anyone else who crosses his path. That is how a real psychopath thinks - Aspie or no Aspie. Once I find out a person has no empathy, I'm now on my guard. This person also ended our friendship like he did all the others in his past and I have to say it was very cold and I was actually traumatized (or shocked) for a couple of days because of the way he did it. I got over it quickly because I now know how lucky I am to be away from him. I then educated myself more about psychopaths and what to look for so I'm not taken in like that again. He had a great personality because he said he had "studied" how to be the person that people were attracted to and wanted to be around. He said he had even perfected his voice to be very "charming". He even was able to act like he cared and I know now it was so he could get whatever information he needed from me - this information was "how NT's think and feel" information. Once he was done getting what information he wanted from me he then disposed of me like a piece of trash. Thinking back on it (I've done a great job blocking out his existence) gives me the creeps all over again.
Disposing you after you became useless sounds very much like a narcissist. To them people are objects and they treat people like they are accessories. What do we do with our things when they become useless? We put them away and not use them, that is what they do to us humans. They put us on the back burner and will come back when they need supply. But when we don't want the item anymore, we get rid of it like they do for humans. I loved this analogy someone once wrote in their blog about narcissists.

Jute--
You don't look unemotional to me not in the slightest. Actually you come across as one of the more emotional people in this thread. Your social signalling and choice of words very strongly suggests emotion-driven cognition/decision-making and looks nothing like an emotionless social signature. You're specifically showing offense/reactance, disturbance (disgust), insecurity (anxiety), anger, bitterness, resentment.

Appearances can obviously be deceptive because you are entirely wrong. I think I'm a better judge of myself than someone who I've never met and with whom I've exchanged only a few paragraphs of text online.

Well then of course I'm so sorry!! Sorry it was just that something really wasnt adding up after that gesture that looked so much like an impassioned moral disgust response and then you go on about not being affectively emotional. That just didnt look right to me! But I guess appearances can be deceptive sometimes -- you know?

My understanding is that psychopathy is either a genetic or developmental condition, so unfortunately a therapist couldn't help me. It's not treatable, but that's okay, really. I'm honestly perfectly happy the way I am.
Often the goal of therapy is management, not cure. People with autism or autoimmune disorders still got to the doctor, even without the hope of treatment.
In response to the opening post, I do have emotions - in fact very powerful ones - but often they seem alien to me. The only time they seem to function properly is when they're being manipulated by media with music. I start crying at the most sappy sad scenes in a kid's movie (and those darn ASPCA videos - animals always get me), but couldn't muster any feelings for my dad when he lost his dad and brother. I don't really think I feel love My emotions tend to come out inappropriately when I'm painting or drawing. I don't paint much anymore.
I think a lot of what helps me in society is that I've adopted strong ethical guidelines with a utilitarian bent. And also that one place where my emotion is properly functioning is my anger in response to unfairness and cruelty.
I think the worst thing in the world is for those with power to be cruel to those weaker than them.

After re-reading, I still don't understand how I could take that as anything but a insult. One can not be a Psychopath and a Aspie. It just doesn't work like that. You saying that, Makes me insulted, fore your saying I'm a psychopath by relating me and you into the same category.

I looked up those posters. Assuming I believe what they say they're valuable data so thank you. But in your case I can't believe anything you say so I'm discarding you as a data point bye.
You say you feel threatened offended and disturbed by this thread. You also expressed concern you were thread hijacking. Okay well you now officially are so please leave

Can you be both Healthy and Diseased at the same time no. I have personal experience with Psycho/Sociopaths. My mom was a sociopath. I'm the most qualified WP member that I know of so that is probably the best answer your going to get. Thinking back to it. Yeah she is a Sociopath she fits the signs. Her Parents weren't there when she was younger. There is your answer, chances are you might have some comorbids that asd often brings up. You can't be a Aspie it isn't possible.

Do you have any specific scientific reason to believe it's not possible to be both? If so I would very eagerly like to hear your evidence/reasoning. Here's mine:
viewtopic.php?t=328711
Sorry totes honest no insult is intended. I don't think you or any other aspies/auties (except Jute) are psychopathic or sociopathic. I don't think aspies or autistics are more antisocial that the general population I just think they have the same percentage of psychopaths/sociopaths (also narcissists, borderlines, etc...) as everybody else. I think its totally unfair that aspies get mistaken for socios by NTs my current theory about this is there is lots of mistaking alexithymia for psychopathy when theyre totally different things

I was not thread hijacking. I was simply replying to your absurb remarks concerning your supposed affinity towards myself. I want nothing whatsoever to do with you, you are a sick and manipulative individual. Bt let's get one thing straight, simply because you started a thread does not give you the right to exclude people from posting on it, "offciialy" or otherwise. I had no intention of posting on this thread again until your high handed post required a response. Let me make it absolutely clear to you, I won't be posting on this thread again but that's my choice not yours.

I was one of those posters and apart from motorcycles Jutes description was spookily similar ( although the social circle I was in did the same as me albiet I did more LSD ). Was I trying to fit in ? Was it rebellion ? I still have no idea.

Yeah thank you for chiming in I was going to write you.

I can totally relate to the drugs sex stealing and stuff. The difference is I'm well over 19 and still do all that stuff all the time (well except very little stealing now just cause not worth the risk any more at my income) and life without lots of thrills/stimulation sounds dead what's the point boring. Also my social circle isn't particularly lawbreaking theyre actually pretty white picket fence mostly but thats cause I slept my way into a nice house and its f*****g boring here wah. It's not rebellion Im just trying to enjoy myself. I'm very materialistic for the same reason and love buying new things. If it weren't for autism sensory issues Id look into studying law or finance because basically everything I want can be bought with money
Actually srsly do you know what kinda social circles I can hang out in to find people like that? I really would be happier with more sex drugs and motorcycles people in my life.

Dude, seriously, you need to see someone because you are going to end up in prison. You are going do something too risky and something not good is going to happen. Mugging someone can get you shot these days. Just like that article I posted, the only thing stopping you is consequences. You have no guilt or shame or empathy that is going to stop you. You should see someone about this. Maybe they can help you tap into your empathy side - that article says even psychopaths have empathy. I'd look into that.

Aspies can feel emotions, Psychopaths can. I'm disappointed that it wasn't obvious enough. While I might have trouble recognizing or appearing emotional, doesn't mean I have none. Also, by being, Autistic Sociopath's cause has no effect on you. Also the entire disorder conflicts so let's say it was possible it wouldn't be Autism.. You reason that wasn't Scientific Evidence. So by you being a Sociopath, You can't. I have experience with Sociopaths. I'm probably the best person you get. You can either take or leave the answer, But it is it. I'm certain, this is true. Also Opposite attract that is why your here right? You're not a ASPIE you're a SOCIOPATH, Tell yourself that. Your ENFORCING THIS BEHAVIOR. Scientific Evidence your Are Autistic Please.

though. No, It's impossible to be a Aspie Psychopath. You might think that but you're wrong. Nice chatting with you though. Also if It was possible I would be a Sociopath, Or at least partially develop into one. I'm scientific proof that this can't happen. My Abusive mom was a Sociopath. She took my siblings away from my dad, for that reason. What you don't understand is if your looking on wrong planet. I'm the best answer you going to get. If you continue to argue I'm not going to because, I both disproved you, and proved myself. Any further discussion about this would be illogical.
