What is a Personality Disorder?

A personality disorder is a type of mental health disorder that keeps a person from being able to control their moods and how they come across in their personality to themselves and others. The individual cannot manage their moods, which directly impacts their relationships and interactions with family, friends, co-workers, and more. They often feel misunderstood and do not make a correlation between what happens in their lives and their poor mental health. Personality disorders cannot be cured, but can be managed when the person attends a licensed professional treatment program.

Types of Personality Disorders

There are three categories of personality disorders and several types within each category. The types of personality disorders include:

Type A: 

Paranoid Personality Disorder: This causes a person to find tremendous difficulty in trusting others and their motives.

Schizoid Personality Disorder: The individual prefers to be isolated from others and is uninterested in being part of social situations.

Schizotypal Personality Disorder: This type of personality disorder causes a person to experience magical thinking, be suspicious of others, and sometimes hallucinate.

Type B:

Borderline Personality Disorder: This is characterized by paranoia, a fear of abandonment, and mood swings.

Histrionic Personality Disorder: The person craves constant attention from others while often feeling misunderstood. 

Narcissistic Personality Disorder: This causes the person to feel superior to others and exhibit a huge ego that needs constant validation. 

Antisocial Personality Disorder: This type is characterized by reckless and off-putting behavior that often ignores how other people feel.

Type C:

Avoidant Personality Disorder: This causes a person to feel like everyone is judgmental of them, which fosters a sense of low self-esteem.

Dependent Personality Disorder: This type causes people to depend on others to take care of their needs and shore up their sense of self-esteem.

Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder: This type is characterized by being hyper-focused on every detail of a person’s life and staying organized. However, it is not the same thing as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

You are not alone. You deserve to get help.

How Effective is Personality Disorder Treatment?

About 9% of U.S. adults have a personality disorder, with borderline personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder being the most common ones. The teen years are when most personality disorders begin to surface. The faster a person gets treatment, the less they will have to suffer from their unmanageable symptoms. 

Participating in treatment for personality disorders lowers the risk of developing complications that often arise when a person has gone untreated. Fallout from going untreated can include:

  • Difficulties on the job and in school
  • Poor personal relationships
  • Suicidal feelings
  • Domestic violence
  • Addiction to drugs or alcohol
  • Homelessness

Does Insurance Cover Mental Health Treatment?

Insurance companies recognize the fact that a person’s mental health is every bit as important as their physical health. This results in most insurance plans providing some sort of coverage for the treatment of mental health disorders. To find out what a person’s plan covers, they can contact an insurance company representative or speak with an admissions counselor at a treatment program they are interested in.
