YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) and other cluster B personality disorders share ten trait domains.

The field of personality disorders is at an impasse, reflected in the competing diagnostic models in the DSM 5-TR (the categorical lists of diagnostic criteria imported verbatim from the DSM-IV-TR vs. the dimensional, descriptive alternative models, relegated to the appendices). We need to reconceive of cluster B personality disorders as posttraumatic dissociative conditions involving self-states (subpersonalities with pseudoidentities).

This seems to be the most clinically rigorous way to rid ourselves of excessive comorbidities and polythetic diagnoses. Recasting cluster B personality disorders as post-traumatic conditions which involve dissociation goes a long way towards resolving these outstanding conundrums and provides for hitherto absent efficacious treatment modalities.
