right, exactly. [sociopathic] and [issues with impulse control] are different things. both matter, however prognosis and tactics for addressing them are different between the two. they share some generally apparent behavior, but in detail, the behavior is not the same, nor are the motivations. popular media and the nightly news have make everyone familiar with [sociopath] but not so much with [impulse control issues], although I'm fairly certain its much the more common problem.
and as always, it's armchair psych since we're 3rd party, on a typed observation, by a non-clinical observer, on the internet.
been enjoying reading your well-informed and well-articulated posts on the subject. excercising my own armchair psych degree, I think you're spot on.
