Does Your Son Struggle With
Antisocial Personality Disorder?
Resolution Ranch Academy Can Help
Does your boy 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.
A chronic mental condition in which your child might show signs of dysfunctional ways of thinking and relating to others, he might treat others with total apathy to their feelings, be calculating and insincere, possibly violating the law, and admitting to no regret.
These can all be signs of Antisocial Personality Disorder, and Resolution Ranch can provide a safe haven for your boy as he struggles to overcome his serious problem.
How We Can Treat Your Son’s Anti Social Personality Disorder at Resolution Ranch Academy
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 boy will enduring 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 he doesn’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 his life!
