Personality Disorders Overview
A condition where persistent, inflexible patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving cause difficulties in daily life.
Details
Personality disorders occur when inner experiences and behavioral patterns deviate significantly from social expectations, are inflexible, and appear across many areas of life.
There are 10 personality disorders, classified into Cluster A (odd/eccentric), Cluster B (dramatic/emotional), and Cluster C (anxious/fearful).
Personality disorders are not "bad personalities." They are mostly adaptive patterns formed during childhood experiences. Significant change is possible through professional treatment. Mindy wants you to know there is always hope.
