Dr. House

Avoiding close contact with people. House shows no interest in his patients and refuses to work shifts at the clinic, preferring to spend time alone in his office. Cynicism and detachment. Even in romantic relationships, he behaves like a teenager: he's rude, provocative, and ignores demands and requests, while simultaneously declaring his affection and love for the woman. Drug Addiction. Long-term abuse of the powerful painkiller Vicadin leads House to develop a life-long dependence on the medication. Rejection of boundaries and rejection of social norms. He refuses to wear a medical gown, comes to work in casual clothing, disregards chain of command, and ignores hospital regulations. Stubbornness and persistence. House is very stubborn in defending his position and persistent in achieving his goals, which helps him save the lives of his patients.
