But psychopath has a very negative connotation, as it should.

No it shouldn't, it's a shit name. It means suffering soul. If we mean people with ASPD, let's speak English.

It means that in Latin but we aren't speaking Latin.

Psychopath doesn't mean anything in Latin.

No, it doesn't. Whoever says psychopath is speaking Greek. They should stop that and speak a language they understand.
