I dont see a personality disorder qualifying as a "mental illness". A mental disorder or mental illness is a psychological or behavioral pattern that occurs in an individual and is thought to cause distress or disability that is not expected as part of normal development or culture. although it seems likely, i dont believe it to be such. Personality disorders cause the person to behave in a certain manner but does not cause them distress to where they are impaired from society. Unless you become "depressed" or develop anxiety of the sort, then it becomes a mental illness because it impairs your daily living. a personality disorder in itself isn't a mental illness. Everyone goes through a period of distress in their life with everyday living and trying to deal with situations, its psychological stress, its normal, but still doesn't imply a mental illness. Not until an outside force is impacted upon an individual...and just because a personality disorder is evident, does not bring on depression or anxiety, or schizophrenia for example, its all according to the person, their genetics, and how they were brought up.
Trust all the things I tell you are true, dress up in your best so I can be proud of you, and never believe I won't turn on you, and never believe I do this for you. You're leading me on again and I find it, yeah I like it, and I'm reeling in awe for sure, now I know it was given to me.
