sociopaths / psychopaths BREAK victims in HORRIBLE ways.. they are different from bullies.

besides, Misery already explained to you why characters with mental illness fail to count as "bullies".. if you have a psychosis or personality disorder and pathologically lie, belittle or hurt people you aren't a bully.. you are in need of professional help and counselling.. without it you can (and usually will) do harm to yourself and others..

these characters aren't bullies, they are geniunely ill and / or not functioning "normally".. they see no wrong in what they do and don't grow out of it like most bullies.. they also don't just pick a target out of spite (as a bully does) but may pick complete strangers, simply because they don't understand (or in sociopath / psychopaths don't care) that harming others is seriously wrong.

and yes, this can still apply to some methodical killers and so on.. they are still emotionally unstable or have sadistic narcissism.. these are far worse than bully boy tactics and as one admin said before makes them far more dangerous.

bullying is wrong, it can have horrible side-effects and some bullies are psychotic.. but a true psychopath / psychotic / sociopath is a goddamn nightmare that even veteran police fear.
