What do you other folks mean by ASPD?
I am hooked on the SPD thing because one of my traumatic memories is the day my Dad called me a "sadist", when I was too young to even know what that word meant. Projection is common thing I see in multiple family members. The second link, the WIKI article, notes that is has a high level of comorbidity, thus why I have trouble deciding if he is NPD or SPD.
