Does continual #pain make you suspect others aren't on your side? Does severe pain make you detach from relationships or restrict your emotions? You have a CLUSTER A Disorder! / thread
Personality disorders can sometimes wreck lives or result in #suicide. Overdiagnosis trivializes this suffering & makes it harder for people to get care.
But pressured doctors too often stop effective #opioids & refer people for ineffective counseling.
