Sociopathy isn't a mental illness.

Sociopathy isn't a case of yes/no - it is measured on a spectrum and EVERYONE scores on the spectrum somewhere.. this includes you.

Most people who score high on a sociopathic spectrum DO NOT commit acts of outright physical violence against others.

Most people who do commit acts of outright physical violence against others DO NOT score unusually high on sociopathy markers.

Most criminal sociopaths commit "white collar" crimes because it's about winning the game, not about hurting people.
Not only all that, but therapy can make sociopathy worse, I don't know of any mental illness who's most effective treatment consists of appealing to their sense of logic.
