A group of organisations including the British Psychological Society, the Centre for Mental Health, the Royal College of GPs and Mind has launched a consensus statement on the treatment of people diagnosed with a personality disorder.
The statement identifies the challenges faced by people with personality disorders and sets out the priorities for improving treatment and support.
The work was spearheaded by Norman Lamb MP, former Minister for Care and Support, and Sue Sibbald, who campaigns on behalf of people with personality disorders following her own experience of being diagnosed.
