Chapter 1
Personality = our usual tendencies to think, feel, react and behave in different situations > we
all have a personality > abnormal personality is the inability of persons to react flexibly and
appropriately to life’s challenges (in reference to the individual’s culture / a certain baseline)
> personality disorders are ego-syntonic = they experience it as something belonging to them
and being part of them (while other clinical disorders such as depression are often ego-
dystonic; it’s something that does not belong to them and the symptoms disturb their living in
some way)
