Personality disorders and relationships

Personality disorders shape how someone relates to others—patterns of manipulation, detachment, instability, or rigidity—rooted in early wound and fear; in relationships, this often means deciding whether you can set boundaries firm enough to protect yourself while the other person remains unchanged. Compassion for their pain need not mean tolerating ongoing harm to your own.
