Personality Disorders are a persistent pattern of behaviours and attitudes reflecting how a person thinks about themselves and others.
Personality disorders fall into 10 distinct types, with Borderline Personality Disorder being the most common seen in Australia. Personality disorders develop in adolescence and tend to remain stable across a person’s life, leading to distress and impeded functioning of a person’s daily life.
