There is a blurring of psychological lines between the narcissist and the sociopath. The sociopath is very clear that they are completely unempathetic. They are reckless, careless and often commit assaults against their spouse and chiildren and other individuals. Sociopaths have histories of violence from early childhood, adolescence and through adulthood. They often commit violent crimes and go to prison. The sociopath can be very charming and is very cunning in getting what he wants from others, even if his behavior takes a violent turn.

Narcissists can display a variety of sociopathic behaviors. They hide behind the impeccable image they have created. They have no conscience as well--it consists of not getting caught. Some examples are the narcissist making off with all of the wealth by  forcing the parent or parents to change the will in their favor, shutting down the other family members. In divorces the narcissistic sociopath tries to destroy the spouse by using high powered attorneys, convincing the judge and ending up with a settlement that leaves the former spouse without child support and alimony (even after a long marriage_of the family will. Meanwhile, the sociopathic narcissist has found an adoring partner, retrieved the monetary resources in secret and trots off to lead his life in splendor and comfort. Often sociopathic narcissists fight in a dirty way for custody of their children, not because they love them, but in order to use them as narcissistic supplies and to boost their purblic image. I have heard from numerous siblings of sociopathic narcissists who have shared instances of horrible traumas--being left in closets, throttled on the ground mercilessly, threatened that if they told the parents, the narcissist's friends would beat them up. The sociopathic narcissist takes horrendous tolls on everyone that touches his life. Become very knowledgeable about the inner workings of these individuals. Be determined and resolve not to become one of their victims. Study in depth every facet of the narcissistic personality disorder. Visit my website: www.thenarcissistinyourlife.com
