What is Personality Disorder?
Personality disorders are mental health conditions that affect how a person thinks, feels, behaves, and relates to others. It is more than just having certain personality traits. When these patterns are long-lasting and inflexible, they can impact relationships, work, and daily life. People may struggle with emotions, self-image, or understanding others.
In Kerala, these challenges are often misunderstood as “stubborn behavior,” “overreacting,” or “attitude issues,” but they are recognized medical conditions, not personal flaws. Clinically, personality disorders are classified under ICD-10 codes F60–F69, covering different types and patterns. Globally, many people live with personality disorders, making them an important mental health concern. The good news is that with the right support and therapy, these patterns can be understood and managed effectively.
