Understanding Personality Disorders
Every person has their own unique personality and way of acting, thinking, and feeling. A personality disorder gets in the way by causing them difficulty in managing their emotions, thoughts, and actions. This leads to having volatile relationships, acting in ways that alienate others, and often feeling misunderstood. This impacts millions of people because approximately 9% of people in the U.S. have a personality disorder.
If the person is undiagnosed and untreated, their symptoms typically worsen. A licensed mental health treatment program helps them manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

When a person gets a diagnosis for their personality disorder, it’s vital that they know exactly which type they have.

Understanding the Impact of Personality Disorders
Living with a personality disorder negatively impacts a person’s life on several levels. It can cause tremendous difficulty in making and maintaining long-term relationships, as well as compromise their ability to do well at work or in school. The individual often feels misunderstood and like they just don’t connect well with others. This can impact their self-esteem and keep them from meeting their full potential.
