[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 389265"] My daughter expresses her anger in rages like that, and you do need to take it very seriously and get him some professional help and diagnosis's ASAP. They only get bigger and stronger, and the longer his issues are ignored the rougher it's going to get. The trinity of sociopaths is fire setting/bed wetting/cruelty (to animals, people, etc). No, not all three have to be present. True sociopaths can't empathize and don't feel remorse, but they do get better at faking it over time. If he is already so good at lying that even you can't be certain, I would find that worrisome as well. A lot of this could be attention-getting behavior, but even if it is it could quickly progress to much worse. Enlist all the help you can, from family, teachers, doctors, and get him the help he needs. You've got to hang in there and stay strong, this didn't all happen overnight and won't be corrected overnight, either. It's a process. You've found a great place here that does understand what you're going through, and you will need a support system for yourself, as well. Family, friends, etc., often don't always "get it" or don't want to. We get it. We're here for you, to support you and help you so you can help him and yourself. [/QUOTE]
