Antisocial Personality Disorder in Teens Can be Problematic
Does your son or daughter suffer from Anti Social Personality Disorder (ASPD)? Anti Social Personality Disorder is defined (by the American Psychiatric Association) as “a pervasive pattern of disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others.” Symptoms include failure to conform, deceptiveness, impulsive conduct, irritability, indifference for his own safety (and the safety of others), and a pattern of irresponsible behavior and lack of repentance.
How Our School Treats Anti Social Personality Disorder
Anti Social Personality Disorder traits are fairly complex for parents to distinguish. There is not a universally agreed upon successful treatment for this disorder but there might be success in ones that show the high cost of illegal and inappropriate behavior. There are studies that reveal reward systems or contingency management systems to be somewhat advantageous in navigating behavior to a more acceptable norm (not to be confused with normal, parental attempts at punishment and incentive).
While an extremely complicated disorder to treat, your teen will endure treatment for Anti Social Personality Disorder, as well as for any related conditions, such as depression, substance abuse and anxiety. It is quite important to have ASPD properly diagnosed and treated, so that they don’t suffer possible, life-altering consequences, such as alcohol or substance abuse, risky and reckless behaviors, even repetitious law-breaking leading to imprisonment. You don’t want Anti Social Personality Disorder to control your teen’s life!Diamond Ranch Academy Can Help Teens
