When Cobain was seven years old, his parents divorced.[13] Later in his life, he said the divorce had a profound effect on his life. His mother noted that his personality changed dramatically; Cobain became defiant and withdrawn.

Kurt behaved insolently toward adults. He began bullying another boy at school. These behaviors eventually caused his father and Westeby to take him to a therapist, who concluded that Kurt would benefit in a single family environment.

Cobain's teenage rebellion quickly became overwhelming for his father, who placed Kurt in the care of family and friends.

Cobain was detoxed unsuccessfully many times by questionable physicians in the now-infamous celebrity detox programs in posh hotels before relapsing and dying of a drug overdose and self-inflicted gunshot in 1994.[84]

Kurt Cobain was arrested by Aberdeen, Washington police in May 1986 and charged with trespassing while intoxicated. The misdemeanor bust was not the Nirvana founder's first brush with the law. The musician had been arrested in Aberdeen a year earlier on a vandalism count.

American psychiatrist Hervey Cleckley's work[citation needed] on psychopathy formed the basis of the diagnostic criteria for ASPD, and the DSM has stated that ASPD has also been referred to as psychopathy.[2][6] However, critics have argued that ASPD is not synonymous with psychopathy as the diagnostic criteria are not exactly the same, since criteria relating to personality traits were excluded from the diagnostic criteria for ASPD in the DSM, in part because it was believed that such traits were difficult to measure reliably and it was "easier to agree on the behaviors that typify a disorder than on the reasons why they occur".[2][3][4][5][6]
