Forensic psychologist Shannon Curry, who was hired by actor Johnny Depp’s legal team, testified this Tuesday in the civil lawsuit between Depp and his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard, that she diagnosed the 36 year-old with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and histrionic personality disorder, according to a recent Time report. "Personality is the way of thinking, feeling and behaving that makes a person different from other people. An individual’s personality is influenced by experiences, environment (surroundings, life situations) and inherited characteristics.
A person’s personality typically stays the same over time," according to the American Psychiatric Association. Someone may have a personality disorder when their way of "thinking, feeling and behaving" deviates from the cultural expectations that causes problems with functioning over time, the association added. There are ten personality disorders, which are defined by affecting at least two of the following areas: the way we think about ourselves, the way we respond emotionally, the way we relate to others or the way we control our behavior. "BPD is a life-long personality pattern of having too many emotions and having a hard time managing them.
As a result, people use immature defense mechanisms that let them behave in ways that ultimately result in feeling or being abandoned," said Dr. Elie G.
