I don't have ASPD and I don't consciously use or exploit people but there is a part of me that was apparently dissociated by trauma, or something, and I do not easily or naturally empathize with some things with other other people that the "neurotypicals" apparently think/feel is obvious. But, similarly, there are things about me that no therapist was apparently ever able to get or to empathize with, and that was supposedly their job. Go figure.
