Hi,

I am a 24 year old woman who was diagnosed at age 19 with ASPD aka sociopathy/psychopathy, Ask Me Anything.

    Yes, ASPD is ultimately a disorder. Not feeling empathy or remorse isn’t normal and can you down a bad path in the long run. There’s a reason why so many criminals have ASPD.

    While I believe our society stigmatises ASPD too much I also understand that ASPD is something deeply wrong with me. Some people need help more then others but you don’t understand what I’m saying. You seem to think you need to fixed by someone else. That’s not what I believe at all. I believe that we all have our floors and we all have the ability to work on them. This can be a lot of things from weight, productivity or healthiness. Regardless of what is we all have the duty to improve ourselves. I would like to specify ‘we’ because no one else is going to fix them for you.

      I just want to thank you. You gave me some new insights.

      I’m still not sure if i need to do something about it, the same way that some people live happily being over weight. But the comparison gave me a new understanding of the issue.
