I just watched Sheridan's YouTube video "UFOs Psychology and LSD". I am disappointed that he minimises UFOs because to me he then minimises the possibility of hyperdimensional interaction. For me, psychopathy makes more sense when looked at from a hyperdimensional interaction scenario/context. It makes me wonder about him when he seems so knowledgeable about the world, occult and spirituality yet downplays this aspect. I suppose he needs to read more SOTT.

--- Quote from: Laura on October 29, 2011, 08:57:49 AM ---I should add: he writes a bit about psychopaths always "getting theirs" eventually. I sort of think that maybe he wrote this so as to give the reader some hope, but in general, it isn't really true. Only the failures of the taxon "get theirs" and I'm not even sure that it can be described that way because, since they don't really care, is it really some sort of justice?
Another item was his claim that there are as many female psychopaths as male. Well, that's a thorny issue for sure, but what he says makes sense. I did read a study that suggested that borderline personality disorder in women was really just how many female psychopaths were diagnosed. But there are other types of female psychopaths - the defining feature being "without conscience" - that are not obviously disordered in the "borderline" way; just think of Madeline Albright and Condoleeza Rice and Margaret Thatcher and Hillary Clinton.
Sheridan is obviously not trying to be academic about the topic, but that's really what is good about the book. It is engaging and pretty darn accurate and he draws obvious conclusions that academic types would not dare to do because the system would come down on their heads!

Most borderlines hurt themselves. Usually, they cut. Many have eating disorders. One of the biggest driving factors is abandonment issues.
I had several traits of this show up in my teens. I could be projecting, but I wonder how much of that is not due to what that person has to do to protect themselves? How much of that is brought out by the family dynamic? They do feel, and they do feel to a very deep degree. I wonder if that is not the ultimate result of the devastation of the feminine by the dark masculine?
This is a pretty good video of what it feels like:

I think the problem here is your understanding of 'borderline' - that diagnosis doesn't really mean anything. It's a catch-all used for people they can't quite categorize and, very often, used to define a female psychopath. What you consider 'borderline' could be anything from non-responsive major depressive disorder to bi-polar to DID to an high level anxiety disorder - not to mention a hundred other things. It's my understanding that they started using 'borderline' because the people didn't really fit into an clear diagnosis - so you're basically projecting yourself onto the discussion when that isn't really accurate.
I think that if you work on trying to stop projecting yourself onto such discussions, it will help.

Well thank you,Anart. I did not really know that it didn't mean anything. I guess I was just trying to interject so that people would not get the impression that all " borderlines" are psychopaths, although some of them may be. So, I am glad that I posted, as your explanation helps a lot. The projecting is something that I will work on for sure.
