PERSONALITY DISORDERS
Personality disorders usually develop whence you're a teenager or young adult. They effect the way you think and make it harder for you to relate to people, which makes it harder for you to gain friendships and relationships. However, you might not realize if you have a personality disorder because your behavior will seem normal to you. The Borderline personality disorder is sometimes caused by other mental illnesses like anxiety, mood, and eating disorders.
SYMPTOMS:
TREATMENT:
The three main causes for the borderline personality disorder are genetics, environmental and social factors(like tough relationships or traumatic events), and brain differences(the structure of the part of your brain that controls impulses and emotions). However, there are other reasons for developing a personality disorder, so there is no one medicine that will work for everyone.
MEDICATION:
Medicines are not a primary treatment for personality disorders, but some commonly prescribed medicines for personality disorders include: antidepressants, mood stabilizers, antipsychotic medications, and ant-anxiety medications. PLEASE SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP FOR MEDICATION.
THERAPY:
There are various kinds of treatment for personality disorders, some include: cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, schema-focused therapy, and systems training for emotional predictability and problem solving. To do practically any type of therapy you need to first realize what your perspective on multiple things is, so you know what you need to change. Different people are effected by disorders in many different ways.
