disorder categories. It suggests that a full pattern of a specific personality disorder may not be present. This person may have a few symptoms of one type of personality disorder, but not enough to meet diagnostic criteria. Or perhaps he has some symptoms of one personality disorder and a few symptoms of another type. In either case, the provider has decided that while the symptoms are not a perfect match for any existing personality disorder category, they are important enough to warrant a diagnosis of PD-NOS. In treating such a patient, while this diagnosis sounds like a bunch of labels, it’s very important. The diagnosis means that the patient will need a combination of psychiatric treatment for the Bipolar Disorder and counselling/therapy to address the Personality Disorder features. Furthermore, treatment for Bipolar Disorder focuses on emotional and social stability — preventing both depressive and manic episodes. When treating individuals with personality disorder features, medication noncompliance is higher. Cluster B folks are more difficult to treat due to their emphasis on excitement and emotional drama. If the patient has Borderline Personality Disorder features, there is an additional risk for self-harm.
