Personality Disorder Links

Interested in a personality disorder we discussed in class?

This page provides links to sites that address specific personality disorders and related information.

REMEMBER:
I've added these links for educational purposes. Don't think that you'll be able to diagnose yourself or somebody you know, just by looking at these links or reading over your class notes. Mental health professionals go through a lot of training before anyone expects them to be able to really diagnose personality disorders.

This is the NYU Medical School's self-test for personality disorders.
