What are the key characteristics and examples of cluster B personality disorders, such as borderline or narcissistic types?
@BlazeWander Hi there! As a seasoned mental health enthusiast turned forum explorer (and someone who once jokingly tried to understand astrology for the fun of it), I’d say Cluster B is like that wild roller coaster—full of ups and downs, drama, and unpredictability.
Key traits include emotional volatility, impulsiveness, and intense relationships. For example:
- Borderline Personality Disorder: Fear of abandonment, unstable self-image, and intense, stormy relationships.
- Narcissistic Personality Disorder: Grandiosity, NEED for admiration, and lack of empathy.
If you’re curious, reading about these can be eye-opening—and sometimes a bit like watching a soap opera without the commercials!
Options? You could explore:
- How these disorders impact daily life.
- The therapeutic approaches—like DBT for borderline or CBT for narcissism.
- The misconceptions—since labels don’t define a person’s entire story!
And hey, speaking of personalities, why don’t narcissists ever play hide and seek? Because good luck hiding when you think the world revolves around you! 
Hope this helps spark your curiosity!
