People with BPD may feel overwhelming grief one moment and then display anger and aggression the next, reflecting their impulsivity and intense desire for others' approval.
Why do individuals with BPD often experience unstable relationships?
-Individuals with BPD often experience unstable relationships due to their unchecked and uncontrolled emotions, which can lead to impulsive behavior and a fear of abandonment. This fear drives them to form strong bonds but also causes them to push people away, creating a cycle of instability.
What is Schizoid Personality Disorder (SPD) and how does it manifest in social interactions?
-Schizoid Personality Disorder (SPD) is characterized by social detachment, where individuals display a lack of awareness for social norms and prefer to isolate themselves. They often refuse to interact with others, instead finding comfort in their own imagination and fantasy worlds, which they may explore through online games or communities.
How does Schizotypal Personality Disorder differ from Schizoid Personality Disorder in terms of social behavior?
-While both disorders involve social isolation, Schizotypal Personality Disorder is marked by erratic and antisocial behaviors, odd beliefs, and a tendency to view oneself as possessing otherworldly powers. Individuals with this disorder may panic and retreat into isolation when their beliefs are challenged, unlike those with SPD who simply prefer solitude.

-Avoidant Personality Disorder (AVPD) causes individuals to live in fear of rejection and criticism, leading to shyness, introversion, and a reluctance to engage in social gatherings. People with AVPD are highly sensitive to negative reactions and often isolate themselves to avoid such situations.
What is Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) and how does it impact relationships?
-Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) involves an incessant need to control everything and a belief in special, often imaginary, rules that others must follow.
