Interventions For Impulsive Personality Disorder: Evaluating Effectiveness And Treatment Approaches
Main Article Content
Abstract
This qualitative study synthesizes insights from seven previously selected empirical studies to deepen our understanding of Impulsive Personality Disorder (PD). By meticulously analysing data from these studies, which include in-depth interviews, focus groups, and observational research, we aim to construct a comprehensive picture of the lived experiences of individuals with Impulsive PD. The research focuses on the themes of impulsivity, emotional dysregulation, and interpersonal challenges, as reported by those directly affected. This analysis not only reflects the subjective realities of individuals with Impulsive PD but also examines the broader social and relational contexts in which these individuals operate. The study’s primary objective is to provide a rich, nuanced perspective on Impulsive PD, drawing attention to the often-overlooked individual narratives and experiences. The findings are intended to challenge existing paradigms and contribute to the development of more empathetic and effective intervention strategies, tailored to the unique experiences and needs of individuals living with this complex disorder.
