If an employer wanted to do a background check what would be the limits? Like would they have access to your medical history? and if so as someone with ASPD this would be a huge problem.

I work in entertainment so it wouldn’t really affect anything but still. Being a literal sociopath isn’t a good look. That’s why I haven’t told anyone irl. It wouldn’t look good to an employer. Could it hold me back? And if so is there anyway I can withhold such information?

    Yeah, but good luck proving that. My partner is disabled, and has learned to avoid disclosing her disability until after she gets hired. Because if she mentions it during the interview process, she’ll get ghosted every time.

    Proving it usually requires proving a pattern of behavior. And as an individual applicant who isn’t in touch with the other applicants (both past and present), that’s basically impossible to do.
