DSM IV and DSM V are widely used for their definitions of mental ilness, and neither psychopath nor sociopath are exactly diagnoses. These terms are considered outdated. Similarly, WHO publishes an international classification of diseases and these 'disorders' are not defined there either.

What previously would have met these diagnosis are now considered to fall under antisocial personality disorder. This diagnosis can only be given to adults who have a history of disregard for others and/or self which cannot be explained away by schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. What may mark this disorder as specifically psychopathy is usually considered to be low levels of anxiety/fear. Personality theories of psychology are considered useful in describing characteristics typical of people with such disorders, particularly Big Five and Dark Triad.

Damn sociopathy and psychopathy is outdated? Maybe my schizophrenia, asperger, psychosis diagnosis is also outdated? Maybe it never existed at all? Maybe I'm just addicted to pills now after taking them for 12 years? Maybe some people just wanted to get money from health insurance for them pills? What else is outdated or never existed at all? The entire thing?

I know during DSM IV there was a growing school of thought that schizophrenia and bipolar weren’t valid diagnoses. Not only is there is too much overlap in the diagnostic criteria so two different clinicians could easily diagnose the same case with either illness, there are too many criterion for each diagnosis so you could end up with two people having the same diagnosis despite not sharing a single symptom.

I understand in DSM V schizophrenia has been broken down into a spectrum of disorders, so maybe the diagnoses are now more specific, consistent and valid. I don’t know as I’ve not looked so much at that edition, nor research which guided the updated definitions. What I do recall was a research basis suggesting many cases of bipolar and schizophrenia actually better fit a diagnosis of child ptsd and respond better to interventions designed around that. But of course mental health, and the causes of issues is complicated and poorly understood.

A lot of what the DSM does is group people by patterns of symptoms with medications which seem effective at addressing those symptoms (but maybe not the underlying causes). It isn’t really so good at understanding underlining causes of mental health in detail, or the importance of the individual’s situation and past.

For the record I’m not a psychiatrist, just someone with an interest in psychology so take all that with a pinch of salt. Obviously my understanding has limits. I want to make clear the boundaries of my competence.

Science will NEVER admit that they're wrong and we live on a flat surface earth and that astronomy is a lie. The sun and moon might be projections from the black sun in the center of creation and the sun looks like it's moving in the sky making bigger circles in winter and smaller ones in summer, basically. And the stars are luminaries and are NOT suns. Planets don't exist they are something else. Look at what NASA gives you for pictures of planets and realize that no human can recreate these pictures with a telescope or camera. It's all fake cgi just like the image of the beast earth.

And what's the most pathetic is that astronomists study this trash all their life and never realize that earth is a flat surface we're living on and that the sphere planets are just nonsense like the dinosaurs. Made up nonsense. Space and dinosaurs. It's fake. Like how can you dedicate your entire life to study astronomy and never realize that you're in a cult and that it's not real. The sphere earth has to die someday so we can go back to believing in a little truth again. And these therapists will never admit that they're just prescribing drugs and making people addicted to them when their patients probably just needed a little rest from work, family or home.

Watch this! This earth baphomet and snake is a real image you can download from nasa government site but you can split the earth in half in Photoshop and turn one half upside down then you can get the baphomet and also the snake. I tried in Photoshop it works.
