  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4500180/

  Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) is characterized by a pattern of socially irresponsible, exploitative, and guiltless behaviour. ASPD is associated with co-occurring mental health and addictive disorders and medical comorbidity. Rates of natural and unnatural death (suicide, homicide, and accidents) are excessive. ASPD is a predictor of poor treatment response. ASPD begins early in life, usually by age 8 years. Diagnosed as conduct disorder in childhood, the diagnosis converts to ASPD at age 18 if antisocial behaviours have persisted. While chronic and lifelong for most people with ASPD, the disorder tends to improve with advancing age. Earlier onset is associated with a poorer prognosis. Other moderating factors include marriage, employment, early incarceration (or adjudication during childhood), and degree of socialization.

[…] The prognosis for ASPD is complex, with high variability in outcomes. Individuals with severe ASPD symptoms may have difficulty forming stable relationships, maintaining employment, and avoiding criminal behavior, resulting in higher rates of divorce, unemployment, homelessness, and incarceration.

  Robins concluded that ASPD is a chronic, persistent disorder that seldom remits. […] Among the 524 subjects, 94 qualified for an ASPD diagnosis in adulthood, 82 of whom were interviewed an average of 30 years later. […] Both Black et al and Robins found that a sizable percentage of people with ASPD improve or remit with advancing age. […] The natural history of ASPD is better understood than other personality disorders because of the various case reports and longitudinal studies that have been conducted during the past 80 years. For most people, ASPD is a chronic disorder that begins in early childhood and continues throughout adulthood. ASPD is associated with co-occurring mental health and addictive disorders; mortality rates are high. While people with ASPD improve with advancing age, problems continue, though on a lesser scale, such as poor job performance and domestic problems. Improvement can occur at any age, but it most likely starts between the mid-30s and early 40s. Lastly, people with more severe syndromes at onset, appear to be the ones with the most severe ASPD at follow-up. We cannot predict outcome, but people with earlier onset tend to have a worse outcome, and moderating factors include marriage, family and community ties, early incarceration (or adjudication in childhood), and degree of socialization.

  There’s no cure for antisocial personality disorder, but there are methods to help manage symptoms. The first is to diagnose and treat conduct disorder during childhood. Research suggests that early intervention may help reduce certain ASPD behaviors later in life for some people. […] Another treatment option is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)—a type of talk therapy that helps people to identify and change destructive thoughts and behaviors. CBT is considered effective for various mental health conditions because it helps people recognize and shift the patterns that are holding them back from healing. For someone with ASPD, CBT might make them more mindful of some of their impulsive or reckless actions and behave in a way that’s considered to be more “socially acceptable.”

  The exact causes for developing ASPD are still unclear. Most professionals believe that causes are biological and genetic, as well as early social factors and interactions with family, friends and other children. It is a complex disorder that must be diagnosed by a mental health professional based on symptoms and past history. Other psychosocial factors in early childhood could also contribute to the development of this disorder. Some factors include but are not limited to a childhood diagnosis of Conduct Disorder, a family history of ASPD, childhood abuse or neglect, an unstable, violent or disordered childhood, and poor social contact. ASPD is more commonly diagnosed in men than women. It is likely that symptoms will decrease in intensity by the age of 40 or 50.
