In the beloved Merck manual, you can look up many a personality disorder. Interestingly it lies in the psychiatric alums of mental illness, because, in a sense it is...and this is why-
From Merck. Remember, the common red flag of a personality disorder is that they don't learn from their mistakes:
Personality
disorders are patterns of perceiving, reacting, and relating to
other people and events that are relatively inflexible and that impair
a person's ability to function socially.
Everyone has characteristic patterns of perceiving
and relating to other people and events (personality traits). That is,
people tend to cope with stresses in an individual but consistent way.
For example, some people respond to a troubling situation by seeking
someone else's help; others prefer to deal with problems on their own.
Some people minimize problems; others exaggerate them. Regardless of
their usual style, however, mentally healthy people are likely to try
an alternative approach if their first response is ineffective.
In contrast, people with a personality disorder are
rigid and tend to respond inappropriately to problems, to the point
that relationships with family members, friends, and coworkers are
affected. These maladaptive responses usually begin in adolescence or
early adulthood and do not change over time. Personality disorders vary
in severity. They are usually mild and rarely severe.
Most people with a personality disorder are
distressed about their life and have problems with relationships at
work or in social situations. Many people also have mood, anxiety,
substance abuse, or eating disorders.
People with a personality disorder are unaware that
their thought or behavior patterns are inappropriate; thus, they tend
not to seek help on their own. Instead, they may be referred by their
friends, family members, or a social agency because their behavior is
causing difficulty for others. When they seek help on their own,
usually because of the life stresses created by their personality
disorder, or troubling symptoms (for example, anxiety, depression, or
substance abuse), they tend to believe their problems are caused by
other people or by circumstances beyond their control.
Histrionic (Hysterical) Personality:
People with a histrionic personality conspicuously seek attention, are
dramatic and excessively emotional, and are overly concerned with
appearance. Their lively, expressive manner results in easily
established but often superficial and transient relationships. Their
expression of emotions often seems exaggerated, childish, and contrived
to evoke sympathy or attention (often erotic or sexual) from others.
Narcissistic Personality:
People with a narcissistic personality have a sense of superiority, a
need for admiration, and a lack of empathy. They have an exaggerated
belief in their own value or importance, which is what therapists call
grandiosity. They may be extremely sensitive to failure, defeat, or
criticism. When confronted by a failure to fulfill their high opinion
of themselves, they can easily become enraged or severely depressed.
Because they believe themselves to be superior in their relationships
with other people, they expect to be admired and often suspect that
others envy them. They believe they are entitled to having their needs
met without waiting, so they exploit others, whose needs or beliefs
they deem to be less important. Their behavior is usually offensive to
others, who view them as being self-centered, arrogant, or selfish.
This personality disorder typically occurs in high achievers, although
it may also occur in people with few achievements.
Borderline Personality:
People
with a borderline personality, most of whom are women, are unstable in
their self-image, moods, behavior, and interpersonal relationships.
Their thought processes are more disturbed than those of people with an
antisocial personality, and their aggression is more often turned
against the self. They are angrier, more impulsive, and more confused
about their identity than are people with a histrionic personality.
Borderline personality becomes evident in early adulthood but becomes
less common in older age groups.
Passive-Aggressive
(Negativistic) Personality:
People with a passive-aggressive personality behave in ways that appear
inept or passive. However, these behaviors are actually ways to avoid
responsibility or to control or punish others. People with a
passive-aggressive personality often procrastinate, perform tasks
inefficiently, or claim an implausible disability. Frequently, they
agree to perform tasks they do not want to perform and then subtly
undermine completion of the tasks. Such behavior usually enables them
to deny or conceal hostility or disagreements.
Depressive Personality:
This
personality type is characterized by chronic moroseness, worry, and
self-consciousness. People have a pessimistic outlook, which impairs
their initiative and disheartens others. To them, satisfaction seems
undeserved and sinful. They may unconsciously believe their suffering
is a badge of merit needed to earn the love or admiration of others.
Pick one, wouldja? Or all for this woman who is a melange of personality disorders and mental illness.
Like a paper doll we can dress up in disorders.


I can't even go into her latest interview where she feels the need to put down NY and the USA once again to put Spain on a pedestal. She so screwed up. She didn't learn from years ago? That's what I mean by the personality disorder cluster coupled with: she is dumb also. Chris Martin must be flippin' mortified!
Here's Gwyn shooting herself in the foot again. The interview, the Dlisted.com rant and some comments. Never been to Old San Juan or Quebec City or even Old New York. What a silly ass!

In an interview with the Associated Press (done entirely in Spanish, of course), Fishy yapped, "It
is so different from the United States. It seemed to have a history,
and the buildings are years and years and years old. Here in the United
States an old building is about 17 (years old), and over there it's
from 500 B.C., it's incredible. Also, the way people live over there.
They seem to enjoy life a little bit more. They aren't running around
as much as in New York. They enjoy time with the family. They don't
always have their Blackberries on."

Everyone on the planet already knows Europe has a rich culture &
tons of old ancient shit, that doesn't mean America is wretched &
uninteresting. I am so tired of her being pretentious...She isnt even
very good at it, she could at least try to bullshit us with something
unique...She always sounds like a a really young/immature intellectual
wannabe...She never stays ahead of the curve though, she thinks she is
making these brilliant intellectual points, but its always involving
concepts that average people pick up on when they are seniors in high
school or college freshman.

Yet, she doesn't hate the U.S. enough to denounce her citizenship or run for office to try to change things.
I've always hated this goody 2 shoes commenter on DListed:

I don't like her being called Fishsticks or
cunty because I adore her. But to 'dis America? I'm sure it was taken
out of context. She'll always be an NYC girl 2 me. Some of what she
said is true; NYC is high pressured, while the pace in Spain probably
is not. Still, what the heck happened to her neck? Mine didn't look
like that til I was over 40-ish.
Shaddup, you probably ugly and uneducated twatwaffle!
