Antisocial personality disorder is a mental condition in which a person has a lasting pattern of manipulating, exploiting or violating the rights of others without any remorse and it is linked to sociopathy. While only 3% of men and 1% of women suffer from this disorder in the US  according to PsychologyToday, it is important for us to discuss it. In our previous video, we talked about what Antisocial Personality Disorder really is, so today, we want to look deeper into the signs of antisocial personality disorder.
