What is the best treatment for paranoid personality disorder?
The best treatment for paranoid personality disorder is psychotherapy, because personality disorders are pervasive patterns of behavior which do not warrant medication for long term relief and only therapy can change the symptoms. In some cases, someone suffering from paranoid personality disorder may be prescribed antipsychotic medications to treat some of the more severe symptoms of paranoia and on other occasions, medications may also be prescribed to help manage related conditions such as anxiety or depression.
