Personality disorders are chronic and intense psychological disorders that greatly affect a person's life. They often negatively impact work, family, and social life. Personality disorders may vary in severity throughout a person's life, but during times of increased stress or life changes, the symptoms of a personality disorder often strengthen and seriously interfere with an individual's emotional and psychological functioning.

Some of the more common personality disorders include:

• Borderline Personality Disorder
• Narcissistic Personality Disorder
• Paranoid Personality Disorder

Personality disorders can make everyday life extremely difficult. They frequently occur in combination with other mental health problems, such as depression, bipolar disorder, or anxiety disorders.
