My brother was diagnosed as a sociopath at 13. The psychs just told us something we already knew. My brother is a compulsive liar. He will tell a lie, even when the truth would be of more benefit to him. If he tells you the sky is blue, you better go check...........

That is my ex-husband. He can't seem to help himself when lying. Sad it took me five years to figure it out because my head starting warping with all the lies and trying to make sense of it all. It would be tiny little things that didn't matter, but I had to try and make sense of it and it got too exhausting. Sadly, sociopaths have no remorse either. Oh, except when it benefits them to SHOW remorse.

Oh, that's different. My brother is just a 42-year-old teenager.

Can you identify any particular reason why your brother might have become a sociopath?
