I am a college student going for physics. I have read up on ASPD through my Universities published psychology papers and our archive of medical journals. I display numerous signs of having Anti-Social Personality Disorder but always refused to be diagnosed or go to a psychologist because it doesn't matter. I am what I am and there's nothing I can do to change it.

Within the last few years though, I've started to have violent fantasies about kidnapping people and murdering them. Is this normal for someone who has ASPD or is there another psychological disorder that this may fall under?

I've made an appointment with a psychologist as these fantasies are slowly growing into something more.. I guess what my question is as follows: are violent fantasies common among people with ASPD or is this a sign of a far worse disorder?

Hello JackMoore: I see this is your first post, here on PC... so... welcome to PsychCentral... from the Skeezyks! I'm not able to address your question. There is an Antisocial Personality Disorder forum here on PC (along with other personality disorder forums):

Antisocial Personality Disorder - Forums at Psych Central

This might be the best place to gain some perspective with regard to what you are experiencing. It's good that you'll be seeing a psychologist. This is the best way to get a more definitive perspective & perhaps a diagnosis, as well as some help.

Welcome, JackMoore! From what I understand, homicidal ideation can be part of antisocial personality disorder, but it can also be a symptom of other mental disorders, such as other types of personality disorders and schizophrenia.
I hope the psychologist can give you greater insight into what's going on.

I can relate. This isn't me

I can relate to this. I always struggled with fantasies of being hurt but now it's like images of hurting others. It's really scaring me.
