I think a family member of mine may have this condition, Is it wise to approach them on the subject???

Dissocial personality disorder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissocial_personality_disorder)


She has all the symptoms -


Specifically, the dissocial personality disorder is described by the World Health Organization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Health_Organization) by the following criteria:


Callous unconcern for the feelings of others and lack of the capacity for empathy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empathy).
Gross and persistent attitude of irresponsibility and disregard for social norms (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_norms), rules, and obligations.
Incapacity to maintain enduring relationships.
Very low tolerance to frustration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frustration) and a low threshold for discharge of aggression (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggression), including violence (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violence).
Incapacity to experience guilt (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guilt) and to profit from experience, particularly punishment (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punishment).
Marked proneness to blame others or to offer plausible rationalizations (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rationalization_%28psychology%29) for the behavior bringing the subject into conflict.
Persistent irritability (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irritability).


Could it be she has this condition OR is she just fucking hard work??? :S

Its not a once a month thing and she has already gone through the "changes"

This has always been her personality and has mostly always been accepted or shrugged off. This person is someone i care for dearly but would suggesting to her that she has this dissorder give her an excuse for her actions. As there is no cure/treatment for this would it be better to just tell friends and family rather than the person concerned ??? :S

This lady sounds maybe middle aged by your description and you have always accepted her just as she is, you care for her dearly. Do you think that telling her or anyone else about this condition will change anything? You already say that there isn't a treatment.

Everyone is different and we adjust to each and every person in our lives and accept their ways.

I'm not particularly fond of the trend for putting a label on a person. It doesn't necessarily make things better, you even say that it could give her an excuse for behaving in certain ways - I have seen people with 'labels' who will blame things on their particular condition.

Unless her behaviour has really become an issue and changed in some way to the way it has always been, then I would accept this lady as she is and as you always have done.

i know I joke around alot, but i am being honest with this she could have something else that can be treated through meds and theropy, she goes through moods and they can change at anytime Bipalor, Mintic depression and several other that fall under schizophrenia this is a chemcial unbalance in the brain If you want to talk i can go more into detail with u but i dont want other to know all the shit i know good luck bro
