What is the most effective treatment for personality disorders? I have done a little bit of research but I don't know of the authenticity of the information since most of the treatment seem to be more of a money maker than a 'better health maker'. lol. Some of the treatments I have looked into are;
Psychodynamic psychotherapy; "This approach entails talking about your condition and related issues with a mental health professional. Psychotherapy can help people with personality disorders recognize how they're responsible for the turmoil in their lives and learn healthier ways of reacting to people and problems. Individual, group and family therapy can all be helpful.
Cognitive behavior therapy; This for of psychological treatment involves actively retaining the way you think about problems, which in turn improves your emotions and behaviors.
Dialetical behavior therpay; This type of cognitive behavior therapy focuses on coping skills-learning how to take better control of behaviors and emotions with techniqus such as mindfullness, which helps you observe your feelings without reacting. It is most often used to treat borderline personality disorder. Doctors are studying the effectiveness of this type of therapy with all types of personality disorders.(http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/personality-disorders/DS00562/DSECTION=8)^^
Im not very knowledgable when it comes to treatments of this kind, so I would greatly appreciate any contribution of personal experience or wisdom.
One more thing; Would hypnotherapy be useful in this kind of 'mental ailment'. And if so, what would be a recommended way to receive this therapy (Or learn to perform this therapy which I am quite interested in doing.)
