Question

Tommy has been in trouble with law enforcement off and on since he was thirteen. His parents despaired of him because he lied so much, was irresponsible, and never seemed to feel bad about the harmful and hurtful things he did. Tommy is now twenty-three. He has never held a job for more than three months. He has wrecked four cars, three of which belonged to other people. He feels no guilt about disappointing people and is selfish and manipulative. Which disorder does Tommy appear to have ______

Answer 1

Answer:

antisocial personality disorder

Explanation:

Antisocial personality disorder is a condition in which the person has dysfunctional thoughts and attitudes. In this case, these people tend to exploit others for some gain, whether material or even personal.

In general, people with antisocial personality disorder make no distinction between right and wrong, feel no remorse for their bad attitudes, and disregard the rights, desires, and feelings of others. For this reason, experts are divided as to whether the disorder would be the same as psychopathy.

Tommy has all these symptoms, which makes us claim that he has this disorder.
