Dependent personality disorder (DPD) is a type of anxious personality disorder. People with DPD often feel helpless, submissive, or incapable of caring for themselves. They may have trouble making simple decisions. But, with help, someone with a dependent personality can learn self-confidence and self-reliance.
Individuals with DPD have trouble making everyday decisions without input or reassurance from others. They have difficulty starting or completing projects because of a lack of self-confidence or ability to make decisions as well as an urge to seek a new relationship to provide support and approval when a close relationship ends.
If you have DPD, you cannot manage life responsibilities without seeking help from others and have problems stating an opinion out of fear of losing support or approval. You tend to have a strong drive to get support from others, even choosing to do unenjoyable things to get it. You also have trouble making everyday decisions without input or reassurance from others.
The basic criteria for DPD is-
- Difficulty making daily decisions without an inordinate amount of advice and reassurance from other people.
- A need to have others be responsible for the most important aspects of their life.
- Difficulty expressing disagreement with others because they fear loss of support or approval.
