Since antisocial personalities are marked by a longstanding of irresponsible or unlawful behaviors that violates social norms; lying, stealing, and fighting (abusiveness) are their common behaviors. Persons with antisocial personality s disorder often do not experience shame or remorse for their hurtful actions. Their actions are marked by indifference to the rights of others. So I would say there are probably a lot of the rich and/or famous persons that just weren t or haven t been professionally diagnosed.

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a serious mental illness characterized by pervasive instability in moods, interpersonal relationships, self-image, and behavior. This instability often disrupts family and work life, long-term planning, and the individual's sense of self-identity. Originally thought to be at the "borderline" of psychosis, people with BPD suffer from a disorder of emotion regulation. While less well known than schizophrenia or bipolar disorder (manic-depressive illness), BPD is more common, affecting 2 percent of adults, mostly young women.1 There is a high rate of self-injury without suicide intent, as well as a significant rate of suicide attempts and completed suicide in severe cases.2,3 Patients often need… [cont.] Answered by mEn7aL - Fri Mar 28 18:39:05 2008 Would ADD mimic any symptoms of Antisocial Personality Disorder?
Q. Such as lack of remorse, distant, cold, un-empathetic? Strange question I know but I'm just studying up?

ADD/ADHD shares symptomologies with that of Bi-Polar Disorder, (not Anti-social personality disorder) and the two are easily confused. To the uneducated ADD is the same as schizophrenia. LOL. (though in reality, the educated know this isn't fact). ADD/ADHD varies slightly between childhood diagnois and adult diagnois, though most with ADD/ADHD have been diagnosed since childhood. There remains present the hyperactivity, the short attention span (becoming easily distracted and/or bored with routine tasks); figiting or restlessness and impulsivity. Personality Disorders are much different, from a psychological viewpoint than that of ADD. Though people with ADHD are impulsive and often act without thinking, they are… [cont.] Answered by VODKA MARTINI Beans 4Brains - Wed Jul 9 21:33:01 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Antisocial personality disorder"
