Why Not?
Psychopaths can be sadistic too.
I strongly suspect I'm one and I'm a sadist. I like watching people suffer, especially when I cause it. I wouldn't say it's emotionally satisfying to hurt people because I can hurt them without feeling any emotion at all. What motivates me is aggression (which is a physical feeling) and power/control.

You certainly can be, but in my specific case it's the opposite.
In response the OP: that is interesting that you don't masturbate to it. Are you sure it's of sexual origin? I'm not certain how this changes things, or if it does. (I'm not a psychiatrist, so not really equipped to answer.)

No you're still young at 16.
I did many ###$ up / evil things as a child too similar to the cat thing too. I dont no why but my personal theory is kids need to be taught kindess and loving other things apart from themselves.
Your cold thoughts are just that. Theyre cold thoughts nothing else. They're not you!
I also have cold thoughts sometimes even to the point I shiver and think wow wtf where did that come from. But as I got older I realise they're just thoughts. Meditation taught me that. Your mind just constantly wonders. Meditation also taught me to love more and taught me that I am genuinely a kind hearted person.
Hope this helped. Stay strong brother!
