FAQs
What Are Personality Disorders?
Personality is what sets us apart in how we think, feel, and act. It’s shaped by our experiences, our environment, and our genetics, and it generally remains consistent throughout our lives. A personality disorder, on the other hand, is when someone’s way of thinking, feeling, and behaving is significantly different from cultural norms, leads to distress or functional issues, and persists over time.
Personality disorders are characterized by enduring patterns of behavior and internal experiences that deviate notably from societal expectations. These patterns typically emerge in late adolescence or early adulthood and can lead to considerable distress or difficulties in daily functioning. Such disorders aren’t just occasional deviations in behavior; they represent consistent and long-term ways of interacting with the world that differ from what’s generally accepted or expected.
