Understanding PersonalityDisorders
Personality disorders result when peoplehabitually put their own desires before thedemands of society. The sociopaths arenot usually motivated by anxiety and
stress (as in neurosis) or by a need toescape or to protect themselves (as inpsychosis). Sociopaths choose to behavenormally and are ore often almost entirelyamoral they do not care to ignore or
disobey the laws or customs of society. They suffer little or no guilt or anxiety inthe manifestation of their behavior.

Client and therapist usually sit facing each other, and the client is urged
to discuss the problems for which he seeks help.
By and large, therapists do not give advice they would rather help
clients come to their own conclusions and implement them in their own way.
Clients who are relatively well-motivated for treatment can usually expect gains in
self-esteem, contentment, interpersonal relationships, feelings of competence,
and pleasure in life.
