Short description

The personality embraces the moods, attitudes and opinions of a person, and is more clearly expressed in his interactions with other people. A personality disorder is a pattern of thought, feelings and behavior deeply ingrained, long-term, inflexible and maladaptive that significantly impairs social behavior and employment of the individual, or the cause subjective distress.

Extended description

Personality is relatively stable and that thing we just arrange the elements cognitive, emotional and sensory-motor of our experience. A personality is abnormal if a considerable tract personological considered of clinical importance is so deviant from the statistical average of the majority of human beings. So when personality traits are rigid and maladaptive and cause significant impairment or subjective distress, they constitute a Personality Disorder (DSM-IV-TR). Even though the subjects do not feel dissatisfied with their personality traits, their behavior is so disruptive or destructive for others to cause a degree of impairment in social and / or meaningful work.
