Cluster B personality disorders, classified by
the DSM-5, encompass dramatic, emotional, or erratic behaviors. This cluster
includes Antisocial, Borderline, Histrionic, and Narcissistic Personality
Disorders. Individuals with Antisocial Personality Disorder exhibit a disregard
for others' rights, often violating societal norms. Borderline Personality
Disorder is marked by instability in relationships, self-image, and emotions,
along with impulsive actions and fear of abandonment. Histrionic Personality
Disorder involves excessive emotionality and attention-seeking behaviors, with
a constant need for approval and validation. Narcissistic Personality Disorder
features grandiosity, a need for admiration, and a lack of empathy for others.
These disorders often lead to significant interpersonal and occupational difficulties,
requiring comprehensive therapeutic interventions. Treatments typically include
psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or dialectical
behavior therapy (DBT), tailored to address the specific patterns and
challenges of each disorder. Medications may also be used to manage
co-occurring symptoms.
