I would have never thought that an individual can be treated for anti-social behavior. I remember learning that it is considered to be a mental disorder and like Amanda said, it is fascinating that they are now discovering that it can possibly be treated. I have heard about the increase in cortisol during stress but was unaware of any sort of treatment. I found this article to be very interesting.

I have always been taught anti-social behavior is a mental disorder, and that it is really hard to treat. The fact that they are now finding out that it may be a biological problem and treatable is really amazing. As a psychology major i found this article really interesting.

As Cornelius pointed out, already treatable mental illnesses, such as depression and anxiety, are often linked to anti-social behavior. I know some people who tend to be anti-social, but are not depressed or anxious, so I wonder how they would treat a person like that? If the treatment meant filling the patients bodies with anti-depression drugs, I wonder how effective it would be. I think that anti-social behavior is more linked to a person's environment, not any sort of chemical imbalance. I found this article very interesting.

I think I should speak now
I can’t seem to speak now
My words won’t come out right
I feel like I’m drowning

I read about findings of a certain gene found in adolescent boys may be the cause for certain behaviors. I always find thses things interesting because it has to do with nature vs. nature, and most science with say its nature. If this is true then it's good that they may be able to treat anti-social behavior. This article is similar to the one I read.
