Hi,

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

    . Was there any early signs?

    . Do you have any other diagnosis?

    . If had the choice would you still have sociopathy?

    . Is there any characters you think are ASPD coded?

      ‘. Was there any early signs?’

      Look back there were lots. I got into trouble a lot as a kid. I never understood things like remorse or empathy. When I was 14 I was diagnosed with a conduct disorder which is commonly an early version of ASPD. When I was 18 I did the psychopathy checklist and I got 30 out of 40. A year later I was formerly diagnosed.

      ‘. Do you have any other diagnosis?’

      Yeah, I also have Histrionic Personality Disorder and ADHD.

      ‘. If had the choice would you still have sociopathy?’

      No I wouldn’t. It would be nice to not struggle with something as stigmatized and problematic as ASPD. I would like to just be a normal person.

      ‘. Is there any characters you think are ASPD coded?’

      Saul Goodman from Better Call Saul/Breaking Bad fits the bill and also my favourite character of all time Roger from American Dad!.
