41. Darkside... A place for people with mood and/or personality disorders. Chat room and forums. For discussions, peer support, or hanging out. http://home.swipnet.se/darksiders/

Darkside... Welcome to Darkside! This place is for people with mood and/or personality disorders. We also welcome people with other mental illness, feelings of distress or on the autistic spectrum. We hope this can be a good spot for discussing mental health issues, for support and a place where you can hang out and just be yourself. Important notice! This site was updated in February 2004. You can use either the direct URL to get here, http://home.swipnet.se/darksiders/ or an easy to remember URL, http://darkside.4ever.cc which will redirect you here. We don't do fundraising here, we use free servers and free message boards, that is why we have ads. Chat! Chat with us! Click on the image below and chat with Java through the web page, or with your IRC client. Forums! Visit our message board! Darkside... Message Board Feel creative? Visit Expressions!!! Rules! We like to keep the rules simple. We ask that you treat each other with respect. We all need to be treated nicely and we want this to be a friendly room. Talking behind peoples backs and mind games are not welcome. Keep the communication straight, take responsibility for what you say. We will allow a certain amount of foul language, and we also allow discussing triggering subjects. Many chats don't allow these subjects, so we felt there should be a place that does. Triggering subjects are for example suicide, self injury and drug abuse. If you want to talk about upsetting issues in the chat room, it's fair to give the room a warning what you will talk about so those who don't feel stable enough can remove themselves from the conversation. This is not a rule though. It's also good to know leaving out graphic details makes a topic less likely to trigger. For the forums write *trigger* in the subject field.

45. Activity Oriented Group Therapy For Children With ADD/HD At Quest Therapeutic Da Group therapy activity at Huntington Beach, California for children 614 with ADHD and other forms of learning and personality disorders. http://www.netwest2.com/quest/index.html

THE QUEST PROGRAM: Quest's therapeutic program uniquely combines behavioral methods, group therapy, recreational activities and instructional athletics to assist each child in developing new skills and eliminating those actions which create difficulties for them. By observing a child in a naturalistic setting, Quest staff are able to intervene as problems occur. Issues are presented to the child in a positive manner, helping the child to see the problem and possible positive solutions. Through instruction in athletics, each child builds skills and self-esteem. This enables them to participate with peers more effectively and successfully. Quest campers range in age from 6 to 14 years old. The typical Quest camper has above average intelligence and many strengths. They may experience frustration in their lives and poor self-esteem due to their perception of failure and lack of acceptance from peers. They might be kids that struggle in finding stable, good friends, in achieving consistently the goals they desire, a kid who comes home from school upset because of a sense of rejection or failure. Campers may have diagnoses of Attention Deficit Disorder, learning disabilities, adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, or self-esteem problems. Children with more complex problems are not appropriate for Quest. Our campers do not look or act differently than other children. Problems they experience are more subtle yet significant in their effect on the child and the family. Without intervention, these children are at higher risk for more serious problems in the future.

Open Site The Open Encyclopedia Project home submit content become an editor the entire directory only in Personality/Borderline Top Health Mental Health Disorders ... Personality : Borderline Characteristics and Traits The Borderline personality disorder, often diagnosed among women, is one of the most contentious mental health diagnoses. Borderlines are characterized by stormy, short-lived, and unstable relationships - matched by wildly fluctuating (labile) self-image and emotional expression (affect). Borderlines are impulsive and reckless - their sexual conduct is frequently unsafe, they binge eat, gamble, drive, and shop carelessly, and are substance abusers. They are also often characterized by self-destructive and self-defeating behaviors, such as suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, gestures, or threats, and self-mutilation or self-injury. Borderlines are terrified of being abandoned. They make frantic - and, usually, counterproductive - efforts to preempt or prevent abandonment, both real and imagined, by their nearest and dearest. Clinging, codependent acts are followed by idealization and then swift and merciless devaluation of the Borderline's partner. This ever-present anxiety is connected to the Borderline's need for constant affirmation to support her gyrating sense of self-worth and her chaotic self-image. In this, the Borderline is akin to the narcissist, always on the prowl for "narcissistic supply" to shore up serious, marked, persistent, and ubiquitous deficits in self-esteem and Ego functions and to counter the gnawing emptiness at his or her core.

The Austen Riggs Center The Austen Riggs Center is a not-for-profit psychiatric hospital / therapeutic community located in Norman Rockwell's Stockbridge, MA. Austen Riggs is a unique place; especially in the modern era of managed health care. I was a patient at Austen Riggs from June 1999 to June 2000. My life has drastically changed as a result of my time at Austen Riggs. During my year at Austen Riggs I experienced some of the greatest joys of my life and also the greatest sorrows. Being at Austen Riggs helped me understand the origins of problems that had plagued me my entire life. Now with a better understanding of those problems I am much better equipped to tackle life and all it may throw my way. I have fond memories of my time at Austen Riggs and from the bottom of my heart thank the staff and patients that were there at the same time as I for everything that we accomplished. Although I openly admit that being at Austen Riggs helped me change my life around I do have some concerns about Austen Riggs Center. I have set up this web site in hopes of offering people, looking at Austen Riggs as a possible place to seek help, a patients perspective on what is good and what is bad about being a patient at Austen Riggs. What I have written in the following pages merely represents my own opinions and personal observations, except where clearly notated. I can not make any blanket statements about Austen Riggs. It is the right place for some people and not for others. Austen Riggs Center may help some patients and not others.

THE MASTERSON INSTITUTE FOR PSYCHOANALYTIC PSYCHOTHERAPY New York San Francisco THE MASTERSON GROUP, P.C. The Masterson Institute evolved from the work of the Masterson Group and James F. Masterson, M.D., its founder and Director.

Its focus was to promote the developmental self and object relations approach to the psychotherapy of the Personality Disorders (Disorders of the Self), to teach that approach and to foster further research. The Institute became an organizational umbrella for teaching activities.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) : How to Recognize a Narcissist We all have to deal with difficult people. Some days we can be pretty difficult ourselves. Recognizing the difference between normal difficulties and personality disorders can be crucial to decisions about entering new relationships and continuing existing relationships. The material on Narcissistic Personality Disorder that is published for lay readers is not very informative, even though most people have had to cope with a narcissist at one time or another. If you were raised by a narcissistic parent, then you've been taught that the narcissist is always right and you're the one who's wrong. A lifetime of such mistreatment typically instills lack of confidence in your own judgment, along with habitual shame at never getting it right or being good enough to deserve the air that you breathe. The children of narcissists may not have realized that the quirks and oddities of their impossible-to-please parents are not in any way unique or special but are in fact the symptoms of a personality disorder. The information on the Web is very repetitive and amounts to little more than the diagnostic criteria from DSM-IV. Clinical descriptions of Narcissistic Personality Disorder don't describe the things that are most shocking and puzzling in everyday interaction with narcissists.

European countries use the diagnostic criteria of the World Health Organization An enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior that deviates markedly from the expectation of the individual's culture, is pervasive and inflexible, has an onset in adolescence or early adulthood, is stable over time, and leads to distress or impairment. A personality disorder is a pattern of deviant or abnormal behavior that the person doesn't change even though it causes emotional upsets and trouble with other people at work and in personal relationships. It is not limited to episodes of mental illness, and it is not caused by drug or alcohol use, head injury, or illness. There are about a dozen different behavior patterns classified as personality disorders by DSM-IV. All the personality disorders show up as deviations from normal in one or more of the following:
