So what you're saying is that many of those Republicans who rated themselves as mentally healthy, they're actually psychopathic sociopaths? You would really like to believe that, wouldn't you? Well, no.... I think I'd prefer to have fewer sociopaths around. And I agree, an individual's perception of mental health (and happiness) is quite subjective, so these polls don't really mean a whole lot. Personally, I don't rate my happiness or any other emotions on a scale relative to other people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
