The only experience I've had on that is that my C once said, "I don't believe your H is a total sociopath. I believe he has a little conscience." Believe me, most days I feel he is a lunatic at the very least.

I am still reading on this topic - there is something like the borderline personality, so I think that would apply to both of our H. There are many traits of sociopaths that are completely absent in my H personality - but then there are at least 50% of the description that fits him like a glove: Need for stimulation/proneness to boredom Pathological lying Lack of remorse or guilt Shallow affect Callous/lack of empathy Poor behavioral controls Early behavior problems Lack of realistic, long-term plans Impulsivity Irresponsibility Failure to accept responsibility for own actions
Quite chilling...
