Translations:Persoonlijkheidsstoornissen/11/en

• Antisocial — egocentric/transactional thinking can lead to rule-breaking when the consequences for others are not considered. This is often clumsy coping, not always intentional “badness”.
• Borderline — a very strong emotional response with limited cognitive empathy to frame those emotions; difficulty showing the "appropriate" emotion depending on the context.
• Theatrical (histrionic) — emphasis on expression without sufficient attunement to the situation and audience; emotions seem "overdone" because context integration falters.
• Narcissistic — fragile self-esteem is protected via fantasies of grandeur or superiority. Limited cognitive empathy and a narrow context focus cause others' signals to be missed; that seems cold or condescending, but is often a rigid coping mechanism to reduce unpredictability. See also pseudo-narcissism as a misinterpretation with a mismatch of thinking styles.
