Because personality disorder traits are deeply ingrained in the personality of suffers, there is no quick treatment. Treatment is typically based on psychotherapy which evaluates faulty thinking patterns and teaches new thinking and behavior patterns. A problem in treating individuals with personality disorders is that many do not believe they have a problem. Some of the disorders affect certain populations more than others. Antisocial, schizoid, and obsessive-compulsive personality disorders affect men more often than women.
Women are more likely to be diagnosed with histrionic and dependent personality disorders.
