Understanding Anti-Social Personality Disorder
Anti-social personality disorder is often misunderstood. It is not the same as being introverted or shy. Individuals with this disorder exhibit patterns of lying, blaming others, and disregarding the law. They may engage in erratic behavior, have extreme mood swings, and show a lack of empathy. While some people with anti-social personality disorder end up in jail, not all do. Mental health professionals can be easily deceived by individuals with this disorder, as they often play the victim and manipulate others' empathy. Recognizing the patterns of behavior and understanding how to respond is crucial.
