  • far less researched than other disorders
  • most research is on APD
  • relegtated (DSM-IV) to Axis II. Treated as “not quite real.”
  • only some insurance providers cover them
  • Axis II defered means “this client likely has but I don’t have time or need to get to bottom of it.”
  • researchers dismissive (we’re all a little narcissistic”).
  • If you see 3 clients for SUD expect one will have a PD.
