Antisocial Personality Disorder
Antisocial personality disorder is a mental disorder characterized by an enduring pattern of disregard for morals, social norms, and the rights of others. Individuals with this disorder may display a lack of empathy and remorse, difficulty conforming to social norms, aggression, and manipulation for personal gain. Antisocial personality disorder is associated with a number of other mental disorders and can have a profound effect on a person’s quality of life. Treatment may include cognitive-behavioral therapy, medications, and lifestyle changes. Early detection and intervention are important to reduce the risk of developing more serious mental health issues and minimize the impact of existing symptoms.
