"DO ONE THING EVERYDAY THAT SCARES YOU." (Eleanor Roosevelt)

Posted by Jublang |

The human mind is an incalculably complex issue. No wonder that it battles with disorders from time to time. Accompanied by a photo series from Jenny & Lee we give you a little introduction to the most distributed ones. But watch out - if you have a tendency to self-diagnoses you should better avoid pressing the "read more"-button.

schizoid

People with schizoid personality disorder tend to be very indifferent to social relationships, take pleasure in few activities, don’t show much emotion, and are
almost always what you would call a typical loner. They often continue their adult life living with their parents instead of marrying.

borderline

The condition of a borderline personality disorder is characterized by instability in affective behaviour. Affected people are mostly concerned by chaotic relationships, the feeling of chronic emptiness, as well as emotional crises (one after another). Also strong dependencies and the tendency to self-harm may appear.

dissocial

Typical for dissocial personality disorder is high impulsivity, the failure of learning from experience, and egocentricity. Therefor criminal behaviour is an important and serious component of the character of the persons affected.

anankastic

People with anankastic personality disorder are strongly irresolute and perfectionists. They always want to complete tasks perfectly, because they need to keep everything controlled. Affected persons never show extreme emotions and
cultivating social contacts isn’t familiar to them either.

paranoid

Inherent suspicion of others (even if there is no reason), hypersensitivity, and avoiding close contacts because of distrust are typical symptoms of a paranoid personality disorder. People with PPD often behave rudely, contentiously, and take criticism poorly.
