About This Tool
It often manifests itself as a loner, a person who is bored, defensive, and disdainful of others; a person who is detached, unconcerned, and self-contained; and a person who, when interacting with others, lacks enthusiasm and energy, appear insouciant and perfunctory. Sometimes seem more active, but give a person a kind of artificial feeling, as if a little nervous, so people do not want to take the initiative with it. There are not many congenital factors that contribute to a withdrawn personality. It is mainly acquired by a variety of subjective and objective environment of negative impact, resulting in a long-term psychological state of distortion caused by depression. As long as we find the key to all kinds of psychological symptoms, we can intervene in them one by one, and make the dissocial character improve greatly so that one’s character will be healthy and bright.
