Those abused people can become traumatised and develop PTSD and other psychological disorders, but they rarely become psychopaths.
Thanks for clarifying that PTSD doesn't mean people are destined to become psychopaths. I have PTSD in addition to several aspects in my chart that would easily allow me to become tyrannical, however, other aspects in my chart give me the choice to use these aspects for more constructive things.
I have used my unflattering aspects to right wrongs ethically and pursue justice by means of whistleblowing vs something unethical or violent. Going after careers, not trying to harm people (for example of how you use aspects and traits). I have mars, pluto, and the moon in the 8th house; I also have Pisces as my ascendant.
The word harm is open to interpretation as is what is just or unjust; at the same time, to me hurting people's reputations and finances that participate in unjust, unethical, or corrupt activities is the method I prefer due to the fact that it obviously isn't illegal and I don't feel that it is particularly vindictive. These are the things they care about the most that I am able to effect (in my own psyche). For me, hit where it hurts but, in ways you're actually allowed to. That is how I use "it."
For every weakness, there is provided a strength (obviously there are genetic diseases and extreme unfortunate circumstances I am not referring to). Point is, what you "do" with "it" (whatever aspects) is a choice; so are the techniques you use to accomplish said things. (ethical, unethical?). Many things can be legal per say while still being deplorable as well...
Unflattering aspects may make people more "prone or vulnerable" to certain negative tendencies, but ultimately it's a choice. Human beings have free will and it is up to each person how they employ certain strengths and weaknesses.
