When you don't actually care about other people's feelings, you can experiment more with people and learn more about various consequences and how to manipulate, how to get your way. But you got to relieve yourself of that trap of thinking right.
What do Patrick Bateman, Walter White, and Elizabeth Holmes have in common? They're all characters (or real people) often associated with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). But what does ASPD really entail, and how can you recognize it in someone you know? In this episode of 'A Little Help For Our Friends', hosts Jacqueline Trumbull and Dr. Kibby McMahon tackle these questions head-on.
With their backgrounds in clinical psychology, they break down the nuances of ASPD, distinguishing it from the often-confused terms 'psychopathy' and 'sociopathy'. They also explore how popular culture shapes our understanding of the disorder, sometimes leading to misconceptions. One intriguing aspect they cover is how some individuals with ASPD can channel their traits into successful careers, challenging the stereotype that all people with ASPD are violent criminals.
However, Jacqueline and Kibby emphasize that ASPD is a complex condition that goes beyond simple labels or childhood experiences. They also dive into the tough reality of treating ASPD. While it's a challenging disorder to manage, there are strategies that can help those affected, provided there's a willingness to change. The hosts offer practical advice for supporting loved ones with ASPD, highlighting the importance of setting boundaries and self-care.
Packed with personal anecdotes and evidence-based insights, this episode provides a deeper understanding of a frequently misunderstood mental health issue. Tune in to gain a fresh perspective on ASPD and learn how to navigate its complexities.
