Do not claim to be a mental health advocate or a safe space for the mentally ill if you demonise systems, cluster B personality disorders and/or psychotic disorders.

Honestly, I don't think there's anything wrong whatsoever with not feeling "negative" emotions such as grief, guilt, etc. What matters is how you DEAL with the situation, not how you FEEL about it.
For people with ASPD, SZPD, autism, certain psychotic disorders, NPD -- pretty much any disorder that may cause low empathy or flat affect -- it's just a fact of life we don't always (or ever) feel those emotions. (And of course there's way more disorders and symptoms than the ones I just listed, and of course some people who DO have those disorders CAN feel said emotions!)
If you hurt someone and don't regret it, that by itself does not make you a bad person. In fact, if you hurt someone, and want to amend the situation and not hurt that person again IN SPITE OF not feeling guilt? That's amazing. That's amazing and, in my opinion, very selfless.
If you don't feel grief after a loved one dies it doesn't mean you're an awful person who never valued them. As long as you stand by the people who DO feel grief, and offer them comfort or space or whatever, then it's fine that you don't feel it, because you're still being compassionate to those who do.
Honestly even if you feel annoyed or irritated or what have you at the people who are hurting, even that isn't anything shameful, because again it's about what you do, not about how you feel.
Maybe I'm just making defenses for my own ASPD self, but it really doesn't seem like a problem to me. Feelings are private, after all, actions and reactions are what's public, so it matters how you treat others, not how you feel about said others.
Statements like this might make empaths uncomfortable but I stand by it. No one is a bad person just for the way that they "feel", not to mention that a lack of remorse/guilt/sadness/etc is itself a symptom of many disorders and a common trauma response.

Being someone with extremely low empathy but viewed as the opposite because I'm a good listener is wild - like genuinely people will form this intense sense of connection and attachment to me and labor under the assumption that I'm extremely empathetic just because I'm easy to talk to I guess?? I'm also AFAB, tiny and conventionally attractive so probably that helps but it's so bizarre to me at times like people will just plop down next to me and spill their guts lol

Excuse my lack of response, you just said something that my brain decided is an attack now I hate you until further notice and I'd rather not talk to you because if I do I might say something hurtful and I'm trying to convince myself that I'm a good person

realizing that I apologize because I want people to leave me alone and stop pestering me about their feelings, not because I actually regret what I did/said

Did anyone else with low empathy experience confusion as a kid over why you had to clean up the entire house with your family? The way young me saw it, if everyone in the house were to clean up all of their own messes, the house would stay clean as a result. I still think it is the truth on paper, however now I comprehend "helping out" as a concept and have taught myself that it's expected of me. But as a kid, I got screamed at and called disrespectful over this multiple times, even if it is technically the truth. I still struggle to understand just why they were made so mad by it.

you'll never convince me that empathy's a real thing, what happens is you see a person in a bad situation and imagine being in their place so you put yourself in a bad mood too, you're not "absorbing or sharing their emotions" you're just making their bad situation about you and assuming they feel the same way as your imaginary self in your imaginary scenario, and you may get it right sometimes but without any guarantee exactly because there's no actual connection between the two emotional states
edit: check the comments before replying thx

WORDS TO USE INSTEAD OF ANTISOCIAL, PSYCHOPATH OR SOCIOPATH.
by @scaryinclusive.
presently, antisocial is a word used to define individuals with antisocial personality disorder. an antisocial individual is someone exhibiting traits or symptoms of antisocial personality disorder. antisocial is regularly misused in derogatory, dehumanising and stigmatising ways, feeding into harmful stereotypes. aspd is a hugely misunderstood disorder many are uneducated on, and you can help reduce stigma by altering your vocabulary. this includes the use of 'psychopath' and 'sociopath'. the use of 'antisocial', 'psychopath' and 'sociopath' as an adjective, especially in an insulting or derogative form, is ableist, sanist and stigmatising.
help the aspd community out by opting to utilise less harmful, stigmatising language in your speech and writing! please note: the following words listed are not synonyms with or indicative of aspd symptoms or traits. but for the context the aforementioned labels are typically socially applied to, they are a beneficial replacement. feel free to reblog.
