[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 407180, member: 1514"] Actually DDD, his behaviors do fit the criteria for conduct disorder and emerging ASPD. I know these disorders only too well. I have lived with my son who probably should have been diagnosed CD and is now dxd with personality disorder not otherwise specified which stands for "not otherwise stated" because he has a mix of several personality disorders in there. He isnt a true ASPD because he doesnt quite fit all the criteria but he does some. He also fits some of the borderline and the narcissistic. Not a fun diagnosis let me tell ya. Mine can feel some empathy and some degree of remorse though. He was quite upset when his grandfather died. The one thing he was so upset about was the bad things he had done to his grandfather. But he doesnt really learn well from his mistakes either. He doesnt get that you cant just do what you want to because you want to even though its wrong. Today he lost my trust again and that has really upset me. He doesnt get why either. I dont understand why he cant understand it. There are treatments for Conduct disorder. Look for something called MST. That is the best out there for this diagnosis. I will tell you that kids/people with this diagnosis arent in for an easy life. Prepare yourself for trouble. Most likely he will get in trouble with the law. Mentally be prepared for that. It isnt easy. Kids like this think they are above societies rules. Most often courts feed into this by only slapping them on the hand the first few times so they just get cockier. Im sorry. From a been there done that still doing it parent. [/QUOTE]
