Answer:

Antisocial personality disorder.

Step-by-step explanation:

Antisocial personality disorder, also known as sociopathy, refers to a mental disorder whereby a person consistently shows no regard for what is right or wrong and will ignore the rights and feelings of other people.

People with antisocial personality disorder tend to lie, break laws, act impulsively and lack regard for their own safety or the safety of others.

Symptoms include:

  • antisocial behavior
  • deceitfulness
  • hostility
  • irresponsibility
  • manipulativeness
  • risk-taking behaviours
  • aggression
  • impulsivity
  • irritability
  • lack of restraint
  • anger
  • general discontent
  • physical dependence
  • substance abuse

It should be noted that symptoms may lessen with age.
