Dear Sir,I suspect my husband having personality disorder.He is 32 years,he like alcohols,gambling ,friends and even sex abuse.At present he is in jail for a rape case. I doubt if its his personality disorder that makes him think this way.Please help me sir.
Hi, Your husband seems to be involved in activities without much regard to long term consequences. This kind of impulsive behavior is seen in many psychiatric disorders including personality disorder. If this pattern of behavior could be traced back to his childhood/adolescence and if it is seen in his other areas of life too, like in education, job, social relationship then chances of personality disorder are high. Presence of psychiatric disorders like bipolar disorder may many a times masquerade with this behaviour. So I would advise you to have him a detailed evaluation by a psychiatrist. Medications and therapy may help many with such problems to a significant extent, with at times leading to complete relief. So do not lose hope and visit a psychiatrist with your husband.
