Abstract

In our world today, people who are diagnosed with a personality disorder are not treated like people. Instead, they are treated like criminals, and in some cases monsters. Our society today groups them together as one group when in reality Personality Disorders do not fall into the same category. There are many different types of Personality Disorders and many people fall on different sides of the spectrum. Some people who have these disorders are not inherently bad. People in our society do not understand what Personality Disorder is and instead treat those who have a Personality Disorder with a negative stigma.
