Anti social personalty disorder

[stumbler02]

My psychiatrist says I have anti social personalty disorder (not that same as being "antisocial" in the common sense of the word). So, what do I do now? :sad:

Keep seeing the psychiatrist. Personality disorders require a lot of help and focused attention because they're so ingrained in how you live day-to-day. They are not easy to overcome, and it's especially very, very hard to do on your own. Anti-social is a particularly difficult one. Let your psychiatrist guide you on what to do next.

 

You might check out Yahoo/Google groups to see if you can find an online community where others are dealing with the same sort of issues.

 

Good luck.

Depends on you. It's very difficult for any practitioner to distinguish the fine line between a legitimate psychiatric disorder versus an undesirable personality trait.

 

Are you fine with your life at the moment? Is there anything you feel you can't do because of your personality?
