PERSONALITY DISORDERS

Personality disorders are a group of mental health conditions that involve long-standing patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that are significantly different from what is expected in a person’s culture. These patterns can affect how a person interacts with others, manages emotions, and handles stress, often leading to difficulties in relationships and daily life.

Key Symptoms:

  • Rigid behaviors and thought patterns that cause distress or difficulty in relationships.

  • Difficulty in understanding or relating to others, leading to problematic interactions.

  • Emotional instability or intense, unpredictable moods.

  • Impulsive actions or difficulty controlling behavior in certain situations.

Types of Personality Disorders:

Personality disorders are grouped into three clusters:

  • Cluster A (Odd or Eccentric): Includes Paranoid, Schizoid, and Schizotypal Personality Disorders.

  • Cluster B (Dramatic or Erratic): Includes Borderline, Narcissistic, Antisocial, and Histrionic Personality Disorders.

  • Cluster C (Anxious or Fearful): Includes Avoidant, Dependent, and Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorders.

Causes and Triggers:

Personality disorders may develop due to a combination of genetic, environmental, and social factors. Childhood trauma, neglect, or inconsistent upbringing can contribute to the development of certain personality disorders.
