Can a diagnosis hold you back? - eviltoast

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?

    Employer background checks won’t show medical history, at least for the Private Sector.

        Can you please provide a source for that claim? Because that is highly illegal…

        If your employer requires a health examination (i.e. government/army/job that requires good fitness) then they’ll likely see the results of THAT specific test, yes. But they do not see your entire medical history.
