Common personality disorders include

The most common personality disorders include paranoid personality disorder, split personality disorder, split personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, etc. These disorders typically manifest as persistent behavioral pattern abnormalities, which may affect social functioning and quality of life. Specific manifestations and intervention methods need to be evaluated based on individual circumstances.

1. Paranoid personality disorder

Paranoid personality disorder is characterized by widespread distrust and suspicion, with patients often interpreting others' motives as malicious and easily feeling exploited or deceived. Typical manifestations include unfounded suspicion of partner infidelity, excessive vigilance towards others' behavior, and difficulty forgiving perceived insiults. Cognitive behavioral therapy in psychotherapy can help correct distorted cognition and establish trust relationships that require long-term intervention. Some patients may require medication treatment due to comorbidities such as anxiety or depression.

2. Schizophrenia like personality disorder

Schizophrenia like personality disorder is characterized by social distancing and limited emotional expression. Patients often lack interest in intimate relationships and prefer solitary activities. Their indifferent emotional response may be mistaken for depression, but the core difference is that patients do not subjectively suffer from it. Occupational functions may remain normal, but interpersonal relationships are significantly limited. Group therapy can help improve social skills, and nonverbal interventions such as art therapy may be more suitable for this group of people.

3. Schizophrenia Personality Disorder

Schizophrenia personality disorder combines social anxiety and cognitive behavioral abnormalities. Patients often have strange beliefs, magical thinking, or perceptual abnormalities, such as believing in telepathy or supernatural phenomena. The language content often deviates from logic and the details are lengthy, and clothing or behavior may appear peculiar. The key difference from schizophrenia is the absence of persistent hallucinations and delusions. Low dose antipsychotic drugs may improve thinking disorders, and social skills training can reduce isolation tendencies.

4. Anti social personality disorder

Anti social personality disorder is centered around ignoring and violating the rights of others, with behavioral patterns including deception, impulsiveness, aggression, and lack of remorse. Most patients exhibit behavior disorders before the age of 15 and may engage in illegal activities as adults, but are adept at avoiding responsibility. The focus of intervention is on behavioral constraints rather than cure. Cognitive therapy may help understand the consequences of behavior, and in severe cases, the judicial system needs to intervene. Priority should be given to drug rehabilitation treatment when abusing comorbidities.

5. Borderline personality disorder

Borderline personality disorder is characterized by emotional instability, self-image disorder, and impulsive behavior, with interpersonal relationships often oscillating between idealization and denigration. Patients may repeatedly exhibit self harm behavior or suicide threats, and have pathological fear of abandonment. Dialectical behavior therapy has been proven to effectively reduce self injurious impulses, and emotional regulation training is a key treatment step. When comorbid bipolar disorder occurs, caution should be exercised in distinguishing the nature of emotional fluctuations. Intervention for personality disorders requires multidimensional approaches. In addition to professional psychological therapy and necessary medication, establishing a regular daily routine can help stabilize emotions. Family members should avoid excessive criticism or getting involved in the emotional vortex of patients, and learn nonviolent communication skills. Social functional rehabilitation can be gradually carried out through low stress social activities such as volunteer work. A balanced diet and moderate exercise have an auxiliary effect on emotional regulation. Early identification and intervention can significantly improve long-term prognosis.
