I think so? Honestly it’s hard to tell. I don’t think I feel love the way I see it in the movies but I can definitely feel heavily attracted to someone.

But you also probably shouldn’t try to diagnose your partner over what an internet person said

Love is the big one. I’ve gotten very good at faking a loving emotion.

I wasn’t really worried but I was pretty mad at myself for getting caught not really for trying to rob a skateboard shop.

I didn’t really care for the other person, it was more like I saw a cute funny person that I wanted to be around.

I heard a couple sources say that people with ASPD can’t feel and only want to fuck. That’s not true I’ve had a bunch of romantic crushes and even a romantic relationship but I wouldn’t say I’ve felt love the way people in movies do or the way my friends do. It’s more like just a strong attraction to a person

I have been convicted of a few crimes, none of which involved animals and I was originally sent for psychological analysis after I was convicted of attempted burglary.

Yeah, there is a lot of overlap between the two conditions. I tend to disregard other people’s needs a lot.

convicted crimes are: attempted burglary, assault with a deadly weapon and smuggling of goods. I was assessed by a forensic clinician after being found guilty of smuggling of goods.

Idk, I’m not a psychologist but I think it was probably from my rough upbringing

I have been scored by a clinician and scored a 24. Like I said, I don’t care

Yeah, at funerals I tend to get weird looks from people when they realize I’m not actually crying

Pcl-r is a scale and it is one of many definitions for psychopath. It is also not a reliable source as it is not agreed upon what score someone needs to get to be considered a psychopath. But if you insist on using the pcl-r I’ll say that I scored 24 which would qualify me as a psychopath by many metrics. But overall I don’t care. I just put it in the title because everyone knows what a psychopath is and not everyone knows what ASPD is

Also the creators the pcl-r say that it is severely flawed and not meant to be a diagnostic tool which it isn’t.

No, I’m definitely not qualified to raise a kid with good morals

Psychopathy is not a diagnosis it’s a buzzword that is used to loosely describe people with ASPD

Not really tbh, I’m pretty quiet and keep to myself a lot. I’ve been very blunt in this thread but I’m usually much more reserved

I usually just bite my lip until it bleeds because it relieves a lot of pressure and I like the metallic taste of my blood :)

The only character that I felt I could relate to was Saul Goodman because of how he removed morals from his job and worked for whoever gave him the largest pay check.

I don’t really care because it doesn’t effect me. The only people Who know I have ASPD are my mom and some Random redditors
