Overcoming Betrayal & Addiction

He Emotionally Abuses Me, Is He a Sociopath?


Listen Later

Dr. Rob and Tami talk about whether someone can be a sociopath as well as a sex addict. This betrayed partner is being verbally abused and is wondering if the addict is suffering from some sort of disorder. Dr. Rob and Tami get real and share why someone might just be plain abusive and not have sociopathic tendencies.
