Antisocial Personality Disorder is a complex mental health concern that involves difficulty in everyday life, including relationships, work, and a general disregard for the boundaries of others, social norms, and laws. People with Antisocial Personality Disorder also often lack empathy for others. Due to this disregard for laws and the rights of the people in the community, people diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder often deal with other issues, such as substance use or involvement in the justice system.
Available Treatment Options
Therapist interventions include techniques and activities that foster social awareness, practicing skills that allow for more respectful relationships, job coaching, career training, and other things the individual needs.
