Casey is not mentally ill. She is a sociopath. Sociopathy and narcissism are not mental illnesses. They are personality disorders. Mental Illness can sometimes be cured and can usually be managed with medications. Personality disorders cannot be treated at all. Neither talk therapy or medications have any effect. Personality disorders are what we mean when we say people are just *evil.*
Interesting perspective, my almost ex has BPD, and she sure seems evil, but I don’t hold her entirely responsible, because she’s sick. Shrink says she’s treatable, now I have my doubts. Lawyer says she’s broken and can’t be fixed. I’m thinkin he won the arguement.
