[QUOTE="Steely, post: 430555, member: 3301"] I have a lot to say about this post but I am not in the frame of mind to do it right now. But I wanted to comment on this one thing you said Nomad. I called him a punk because NO ONE, unless you have a Doctorate, is allowed to give someone else an offhand diagnosis. NO ONE. It is an unprofessional and unethical. I had this happen to me in an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) when I was 16 and it haunted me until I finally got a real therapist at 35 who convinced me that I indeed was NOT those things that person had labeled me. That equals 20 years of serious constant worry that I might become this label. I think your points are great - but things cannot be as black and white as you suggest without time. I had a very interesting day with Matt, that I wanted to post - but as you mentioned I might be too caught up in the details of his life - so I will refrain. Regardless to say, I know he is not a sociopath, I just worry, and I know he does as well. Again it is not fair for someone without credentials, but is pretending to have them, to throw that label at someone. In fact it makes me furious. It is like saying, hey man, you look like you have cancer cause you have XYZ - good luck with that! And than walking off. [/QUOTE]
