[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 641602, member: 1550"] You're right. Borderline is one. People are actually able to learn how to think differently. However, most people with personality disorders, most especially narcissism and antisocial, have no desire to change and get miffed at the very idea that anything is wrong with them, let alone do the uber-hard work to get into therapy to change their hardwiring. Even most borderlines resist, although many are starting to and are pleased that there is a good therapy to help them help themselves in 2014. They are in the minority. A personality disordered trait is to become infuriated and in denial if anyone even suggests you need help or that anything may be wrong with you. It's not them, it's everyone else and they won't open their minds up to anything else. Because of this, most of the time personality disordered individuals won't even admit they have a problem. Usually they blame everyone else for what they do. My father is a flaming narcissist. He has been verbally abusive and even threatening all of his life, but none of the three of us kids can ever remember him either apologizing or even acknowledging that he has ever done anything wrong. In fact, he thinks he was a great father and says so, in a haughty voice, all the time. Honestly, before I met my current husband, I did not know how a normal family lived. [/QUOTE]
