[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 433893, member: 1233"] This is most likely drug behavior as prior to the 8 months or so he did show empathy and compassion at least at times. Though those I have known who have ASPD would sometimes pretend to empathize, faking it really well most of the time. It was always a ploy to get something though. But the most likely reason is drug use. Even alcohol use can cause this type of change. You were NOT living iwth your son, you were living iwth an addict/alcoholic. Until he hits his own bottom, which will be a LONG time after you think he should hit bottom, and he decides to turn it around, he won't be your son. Addiction takes over every single facet of a person and they become notihg but a walking mass of addiction. It is all there is in t he world for them. Treating him as though he has ASPD is the best you can do for now. Don't let him in, call if you have any signs of a break-in, and take care of yourself. Do not let him back in for any reason. If he does come in for a few min or an hour and own't go, call the police. In many areas if he spends the night at your home he would be considered a tenant even if he pays nothing. So you would haave to do a full eviction on him again, which would be really hard. (((((hugs))))) [/QUOTE]
