I am concerned about my friend. They have been in trouble numerous times and even got in trouble with the police for reasons I cannot disclose.
Here are a few more things to know about them: They are a chronic Liar. They sometimes lie for attention/ to get what they want/ or stay out of trouble. They once told me a massive lie which went on for hours just for their own amusement. They always say they are going to be famous/ successful and can be quite arrogant. They are self obsessed, always looking in the mirror, checking how they look. They also never think they're at fault, they play the victim. They sometimes get very angry, lash out. But after that they act like nothing happened. They fail to see the consequences of their actions. They just do really stupid things and don't care about things. Also: I thought people with ASPD did not cry but the other day my friend told me they got drunk and cried like a baby all cuddled up in bed because they felt empty inside and frustrated/ bored with their family over the Christmas holidays. Maybe there is nothing wrong with my friend at all, I just want to be sure. Sometimes they can be very normal and appear completely normal. They think there is nothing at all wrong with them, and sometimes I think they're right. I'm not sure though. |

It's great you are concerned! However, we here on PC can't diagnose your friend. Plus, anything we might suggest is going to be just a guess based on very little information. It's as likely to be wrong as it is correct. Still... some other members, here on PC, may have some thoughts they can offer with regard to what's going on with your friend. In the meantime, here's a link to family therapist Kati Morton's personality disorders playlist on YouTube. Perhaps some of these videos will be of some help in figuring out what's happening with your friend:

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
