Theories of Possible Causes
There are many different theories as to causes and influences the occurrence of Adictive personality disorder or (Borderline Personality Disorder). Often there is a history of childhood sexual abuse, physical abuse, witnessing violence in the home, emotional abuse and neglect. Patients often come from a background of dysfunctional family relationships. This suggests that trauma and early bad influences from a young age can cause personality disorder. This is not the only cause but a lot of sufferers have bad childhood experiences.
It is difficult to know how many people in the world have these disorders as many go un-diagnosed, they are often either people who appear very eccentric otheres or people everyone avoids. Of-course some cases are much worse than others.

Paranoid personality disorder is characterized by a distrust of others and a constant suspicion that people around you have sinister motives.
People with schizoid personality disorder avoid relationships and do not show much emotion.
Narcissistic personality disorder is characterized by self-centeredness. Like histrionic disorder, people with this disorder seek attention and praise. They exaggerate their achievements, expecting others to recongize them as being superior. They tend to be choosy about picking friends, since they believe that not just anyone is worthy of being their friend.
