Hi,

Thank you for the query

Personality disorders are conditions in which an individual differs significantly from an average person, in terms of how they think, perceive, feel or relate to others.

Changes in how a person feels and distorted beliefs about other people can lead to odd behaviour, which can be distressing and may upset others.

Same thing has happened here

Both require detail evaluation regarding the feelings and adjustment and psychological counselling.

Please get back if you require additional information
