Basically, a person with APD is decietful, completely lacks remorse, is irresponsible, does not care at all about the well being or safety of others, and can be rather aggressive. There are similarities between the two but they certainly aren't the same greatescape Posted at 8:32 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Alright first of all you have to define what a personality disorder is.  A personality disorder is an axisII Diagnosis in the DSM, which means that it is a stable personality condition (it cannot be cured...only treated). It is marked by personality traits such as an intense fear of abandonment, paranoid delusions, dissassociations, unstable personal relationships, difficulty with anger management, impulsive behavior, chronic feelings of worthlessness, and suicidal/self-destructive behavior. ang42490424 Posted at 8:32 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Antisocial Personality Disorder is another word for a sociopath or a psychopath. tell me again Posted at 8:30 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Just fucking stop with this shit. Look it up if you have to. The 2 have nothing to do with each other what the fuck are you talking about. babycherry Posted at 8:29 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Im just having trouble figuring out the difference between Borderline Personality Disorder and Antisocial Personality Disorder All 6 previous replies displayed.
