Amy Borderline Personality Disorder

As a parole board member, I would like to release offender Smith under specific conditions. Before I discuss the conditions, I simply need to give a little summary of the offender violations he committed. Mr. smith was arrested for forcible rape and aggravated assault to his girlfriend. Offender Smith and his girlfriend at the time were both high off cocaine or PCP. She didn 't want to engage in sexual relations with him, so Mr. Smith got extremely upset and punched her and ruthlessly assaulted her.

Here minor outbursts of anger and rage are exhibited by the abuser. The woman often excuse these outbursts due to a bad day, an accident, or the mentality that “he did not mean to” attitude. The second phase is referred to as the “acute battering incident” (Walker, 59). Here the abuser becomes chaotic, unpredictable and brutal with his attacks. He does not calm down easily and the periods of rage and attacks whether physical, verbal or sexual abuse last longer in duration and arise more frequently compared to phase one.

But as the case continues it went downhill from there. The prosecutor started to chip away at her learning that she has a short temper and is easily angered. She got frustrated after being repeatedly told to repeated herself and to speak up. She showed these signs by fidgeting, shifting her weight from side to side and the signs she showed on her face. This could make the jury question her statements if it shows she can’t control herself.

Abuse is when you treat someone with violence (verbally, emotionally or physically) repeatedly. There are many people who get divorced simply because their spouse is abusive verbally, emotionally or physically.

One of the main causes of abuse is having difficulty tolerating (managing) anger. Instead of trying to discuss the problems they have or talking out why they are angry some find it easier to just verbally or physically abuse their spouse and feel better without caring or knowing that this might hurt the other person.

Like Danielle, many other teenagers often disrespect their parents and lose their own self-respect and dignity at a very young age. Danielle was getting into trouble and always having problems with the police from actions she had committed. Some of these crimes included committing rebellious actions for a young teenager; such as stealing cars or leaving home when she wanted without returning, stealing from stores, and even fighting in public. Many kids and young teenagers after seeing this type of behavior once, are highly influenced to start to act in similar ways like this young teenage girl did. Her mother tried many things to get her off the streets, because being on the streets had nothing good for her.

In the first stages of Knapp’s relationship model of differentiating, the interaction appearance theory applies to how a relationship can drift apart because the perception of that person changes overtime. According to Stangor’s argument, he states that each person tends to have another perspective of each other after a long period of time and how they carefully process information to each other. They both wanted to be individualistic of one another. For example, it got harder for Jenny to understand the adult world and how to adapt to changes of growing up. She was not able to relate to her “ best friend ” anymore because Hien was focused on herself and did not give much support due to her constantly being busy.

Along with the quality of nagging, being defensive in nature also stimulates fights and criticism. The fact that you are not able to accept your mistakes and make a sincere effort to work on yourself has a lot of say in your relationship.

She seems to struggle in order to comprehend her identity, but the various oscillations in size and in life phases cause considerable confusion on her.

In the episode of Law and Order: Special Victim Unit season nine episode one, there was a case which a woman had multiple personality disorder. But what you do not know from first watching the show until the end, is that she was faking it the entire time. The police’s psychotherapist say that is very hard to properly diagnose this disorder.
