ASPD & Grief (Loss of a family member) : Antisocial Personality ...

My mother was taken into hospital earlier this year and was told that she was basically dying of an aggressive brain tumour that was leaking fluid into the centre of her brain. I was working in London and away from home at the time.
I didn't leave work to go home to the hospital as I was busy. I turned up at the hospital on the Friday and she died on the Sunday. It had no obvious effect on me. Afterwards I dealt with the funeral arrangements etc and had it all wrapped up in a week. Other family members were surprised at how quickly it was done, but they just assumed that it was "my way of coping".

However, to say that it didn't affect me isn't exactly true. I found that following her death I became more annoyed with certain things; more aggressive. As she got older she found it harder to deal with my condition in every day life so her death also made things slightly easier.

My mother was a good person, she always helped others where she could and gave me as good an upbringing as was possible with a person with my condition. I think that the lessons she instilled in me have helped me to lead a successful life and better cope with my PD.

I never grieved her loss, and she's still stuck in a box under the table in my home office, which I really should get around to dealing with in case the cats get at it and think it's a litter box.

I'm not arguing, I'm simply explaining why I'm right.
