  1. Question reposted from new members section- Hi there, I'm not entirely certain if this is the right forum to join, but there seems to be a rather large lack of support forums for people diagnosed as having ASPD (Sociopathy/Psychopathy) online. Plenty for people victimised by sociopaths, not much going the other way. Although it isn't something that has bothered me up until recently, I was diagnosed with ASPD a number of years ago (drug fuelled run in with the law, small period of institutionalisation) and I am looking for some sort of treatment program and support to reduce the severity of my disorder. Like many so-called "high functioning sociopaths", I tend to be extremely successful in a given endeavour for a while, and at some point simply give up/tune out through lack of interest. My relationships, employment, projects ,hobbies etc tend to go the same way. After some recent soul searching, I realised that I am tired of this, I would really like to find out how I can generate the motivation and behaviors to have a normalish life. Coupled with a recent interest in spirituality, I'm going through a fair ol' identity crisis really! I am looking for ways to reduce my behavioral and emotional abnormalities, treatments and perhaps support from others with the same condition who have improved or even cured themselves. Is there anything in the way of online communities or similar that would be appropriate? I'm not willing to undergo conventional treatment with a psychotherapist offline for a number of reasons (ok, yes, it would be one more thing to lie about/hide, and I'm trying to avoid that), so an online support forum or group would be the best. There's a surprisingly small amount of material out there. I guess it's a catch 22, few with my condition would be willing to seek treatment or support, given that you have to feel that you are in the wrong in the first place to seek such things, and feeling bad, caring about "fitting in" etc are not things people like myself are known for. Ok, thanks for reading. I look forward to any responses or thoughts! Regards, Lowkey
