I think a better way to put my question is: do you think yo need help? You said ASPD is bad. Do you agree, independently of what others say, that what you are is bad and needs to be fixed?
That’s the conflict I still don’t know the answer. If those diagnosis are as real as a broken bone, is it a disease that needs healing or a personality trait?
From everything you told me it seems to me you think it is something that needs healing, and you seem to be more rational than I am, so your opinion is being very useful and important. One thing is a “normal” person who has nothing to lose saying we need help, the other is someone else being on this side of the bridge.
I just want the answer to be “no, they are wrong and they just don’t like that which is different”, but I don’t know if my wish is the reality.
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.
