How does Antisocial and Psychopathic Disorders in mental health boil down to one diagnose? Let us examine the symptoms carefully to see where this topic is going. First, the experts use the diagnose Conduct Control Behaviors or Disorders before they diagnose a patient over the age 18 with Antisocial Personality Disorder. This particular disorder often has other underlying disorders that mimic the symptoms of the actual diagnose.

The symptoms include but not limited to fire starters, truancy, theft, harming of people and animals, hostility toward authority, violent outbursts, dangerous sexual acts, willful or malicious destruction of property, compulsive-impulsive explosions, crime, and we cannot go any further than this simply because it will scare you out of your seat.

Now let us take a look at Psychopathic symptoms, which include, fire starting, bed wetting, harming or killing people and animals, explosive outbursts, conduct control disorders, inability to regard others, destructive, truancy, neglectful, sexual deviants, hostility toward authority, inability to show remorse or express emotions, impulsive-compulsive behaviors, criminal minded, and we can go on and on. The problem is Antisocial Personalities, Sociopath Personalities, Histrionic Personality and Psychopathic Personalities coupled with a few others all CANNOT show emotions and never show remorse for their behaviors. If they do, it is SUPERFICIAL. Now we can see that mental health and the two different diagnoses link, simply because someone is confused in between.

The differences between the diagnosis is slight, yet there is underlying sources that make them different, when in reality the two are the same and someone wants another prognosis to make additional cash off a patient suffering with mental illness. Antisocial Disorder and Psychopathic Disorder are actually one in the same; the only difference is someone is searching for another tool to interrupt the first diagnoses. Instead of saying that a person has psychopathic disorders, they can add on Antisocial Personality Disorder, Psychopathic Traits and Tendencies and make a few extra bucks or spend a few trying to figure out what is already in front of them. Now we can see the link, since one is an advocate of the other.

This is also were the confusion comes in, since most experts are conflicting over the diagnose Antisocial Personality Disorder. They had the correct term from the get-go when they used Psychopathic. Psychopathic Personalities types are up on reality, there morals and social beliefs however is what determines there symptoms. They often engage is sexual exploits and are often gravely affected by the inappropriate materials. Pornographic materials are often the leading cause behind the mind of a psychopathic. Few experts believe these people are drug addicts; however, this is not always true. Alcohol and drugs are often used for an excuse for mental illnesses, and the law and mental health experts are responsible for this excuse since these people are always accusing.

The truth is these people often have hereditary traits and the behaviors are linked to genes. Not ever psychopathic individual engages in alcohol and drugs, and the history recorded has proven this. Therefore, when we are dealing with Antisocial and Psychopathic we are seeing the same personality disorder. I have first-hand exploited the mind of a psychopathic personality for more than eighteen years now, and did not see any evidence of drugs or alcohol. The individual was diagnosed both with Psychopathic Tendencies and Antisocial and having including many techniques I found these people can be controlled. It takes time, effort, patience, understanding, and a lot of tough love. Therefore, not all psychopathic personality types resort to murder if only the system would put forth the effort to stop or else control the personality types. Most times experts will claim there is no treatment for these types of personalities, and often these leads to deadly grounds.

The truth is the experts do not want to deal with in most cases and will wait until the person kills before someone takes the step to stop them. Of course, it takes years to work through the symptoms, but in the long run lives are saved. If time is more important that a life then serial killers will continue killing. We need to stop this now before someone else dies.
