No. You feel bad which means you are capable of empathy.

I’m happy to hear that you looked up some of this for yourself. I figured that it was the definitions that were catching you more than the concepts.

The DSM has some very odd references in it. For instance, “retarded” is a technical definition that exists and is a possible diagnosis even though society has long moved passed that concept. Mental health is weird.

Neurodivergent includes all those categories except the disorders or illnesses. Here’s why:

Things like psychopathy are caused by structural differences in the brain that make sufferers incapable of experiencing the same set of emotions as most people. Many negative behaviors are caused by lack of inhibition or empathy for others.

People with autism and adhd process information differently and respond to the world differently as a result. In severe cases this can lead to an inability to engage but will generally result more in inappropriate engagement.

Behavioral health conditions are a mix of psychological and neurological issues that require a wide variety of interventions.

These are very different things.

I think that what you are noting is that narcissism can be caused by differences in brain structure, like in psychopathy, or by differences in upbringing, like in sociopathy. In the first case, you’re born that way. In the second case, trauma and such made you that way.

They are different things.

Neurodivergent people process information differently but have all the correct parts to process. They may interact with the world in slightly different ways but do not have a personality DEFECT.

People who are narcissists are missing a primary component: empathy for other humans. Their minds are fundamentally different than neurotypical and neurodivergent people.

Those are personality disorders, not forms of neurodivergence.
