Personality disorders
Articles on personality disorders, including borderline and narcissistic personality disorder, explained without stigma or insults. They're for anyone who has been given one of these labels, wonders about one, or is struggling with someone else's behaviour.
Personality disorders are barely discussed publicly in Nigeria. Intense emotions in a young person are more likely to be read as bad behaviour, a discipline problem or a spiritual affliction than as something to assess. At the same time, "narcissist" has become slang for every selfish ex or controlling boss, which rarely means a diagnosis. Full DBT programmes are scarce here, but DBT-informed individual therapy is available over video.
Start with personality disorders explained, then borderline personality disorder or narcissist or NPD?
A diagnosis needs a qualified clinician, not a quiz or a label from a friend. You can find licensed therapists who work with personality disorders on Mytherapist.ng and meet them by video, voice or chat.
