Struggling with a Personality Disorder? You're Not Alone. We Can Help You Heal

Personality disorders (PDs) are long-standing patterns of thought, emotion and behaviour that can make everyday life feel chaotic. Intense mood swings, unstable relationships or rigid perfectionism may leave you exhausted and misunderstood.

At Nityanand Rehab Centre, we specialise in treating personality disorders with compassionate care, personalised plans and evidence-based therapies. Our multidisciplinary team, psychiatrists, psychologists, DBT therapists and social workers, guides you towards lasting emotional balance and healthier relationships.

What Is a Personality Disorder?

A personality disorder is a mental health condition in which enduring patterns of inner experience and behaviour deviate markedly from cultural expectations, causing distress and impairment. Genetic vulnerability, early-life experiences and environmental stressors all play a part.

Common Types We Treat

  • Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD): Fear of abandonment, unstable self-image, impulsive actions.
  • Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD): Grandiosity, need for admiration, low empathy, hypersensitivity to criticism.
  • Avoidant Personality Disorder: Social inhibition, feelings of inadequacy, avoidance of intimacy despite longing for connection.
  • Obsessive–Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD): Rigid perfectionism, preoccupation with rules, difficulty delegating.
  • Other PDs: Antisocial, Histrionic, Schizoid and mixed-trait presentations.

Signs & Symptoms of Personality Disorders

  • Persistent instability in relationships or self-image
  • Intense or rapidly shifting emotions; frequent anger or emptiness
  • Impulsive or risky behaviours (spending sprees, self-harm, substance misuse)
  • Rigid perfectionism or control-seeking behaviours
  • Chronic feelings of inadequacy, shame or grandiosity
  • Social withdrawal or excessive need for admiration
  • Difficulty regulating stress; black-and-white thinking

If these patterns have lasted for years and disrupt daily life, professional assessment is essential.

FAQs

A personality disorder is a condition that affects how a person perceives themselves and others, leading to disruptive patterns of thinking and behaviour.

Causes can include a combination of genetic, environmental, and social factors, such as trauma or negative early life experiences.

Treatment typically includes therapy, such as dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) or cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), to manage symptoms.

Symptoms include intense emotional reactions, difficulty with relationships, and rigid thinking patterns.

While personality disorders may not be "cured," they can be managed with therapy, and many people learn to adapt their behaviours for better mental health.
