blackbird: an advocacy podcast
True Crime
Ted Bundy, Dexter Morgan, Alex DeLarge, Buffalo Bill, Dennis Rader. What do all of these famous names from true crime and cinema have in common? They have all been, in some form, diagnosed as or written to be sociopaths or psychopaths. But are they really? And if so, what truly makes them sociopathic or psychopathic?
Today’s Psyche Saturday will delve deep into the similarities between antisocial personality disorder, sociopathy, and psychopathy. Is there a difference?
