generally very very few people on the internet or even in real life who claim to be or think they are insane truly are
if you were insane you would either be very certain of it or have no idea at all and deny it

Indeed, depends on the person. On a similar topic, sociopaths are interesting, and I'll leave the knowledge scavenging to the reader; I will give one sliver of info, they are cold, manipulative people with no empathy. (Like an astounding salesman. :^))

Psychology is fun, and if you combine psychology with chemistry you get good ol'psychiatry. Placebo and nocebo are great phenomena to know. Everyone should have the knowledge that their brain is like a chemical factory that makes the finest drugs. XD

I really want to dabble into a lot of stuff, and when I have the money I will have the means. Well, I hope my micro-ramble was interesting at the very least.

Edit: Asklar is definitely in the top ten of people with the most posts, but who is first?

I'm second to Duh, who has around 1000 posts more than me. But if you take posts/unit of time I'm totally the top one, except well, that just turns me into top 1 spammer.

This is a mistake people make often (myself included) and I figure I might as well correct you. What you've defined here is a psychopath; sociopaths tend to clearly afflicted with an Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD) and aren't much good at being cold or manipulative. For whatever reason, common vernacular has mixed the two up completely, so psychopaths are thought of as hot-headed and violent, while sociopaths are thought of as cool-headed and manipulative, when really it's the other way around.

Here's a link and here's another link to show it's not just one source saying this (page 2 has the direct comparison for the second link).

Now I've not got a psychology background so it's possible that I'm mistaken and these articles are wrong, but I doubt it.

Bad Boy, I have taken psychology courses, and I am interested in it. I did indeed mix them up, and it's all too common to do so. :p Here's a good read on both of them: https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/wicked-deeds/201401/how-tell-sociopath-psychopath
Edit: I should have looked at your links first. lol Just goes to show the link is good. ;)
