This week is Mental Health Awareness Week 2017 #MHAW2017 and I want to raise awareness of personality disorders, in particular, the first group of disorders in 'Cluster A'.

The Personality Disorders in Cluster A are:
- Paranoid Personality Disorder
- Schizoid Personality Disorder
- Schizotypal Personality Disorder

Video Chapters:
- Overview of Cluster A - 0:31
- Paranoid Personality Disorder - 1:57
- Schizoid Personality Disorder - 3:26
- Schizotypal Personality Disorder - 6:13
- Summary/wrap up - 8:42


I will be producing videos on each disorder at a later date, for now this is just an overview to give you a bit more understanding.

Thank you for taking the time to watch this - I hope to see you next time.

Please subscribe to my channel for more videos about mental illness and leave any questions or comments you may have in the space below.

Take care and I hope you have a safe, peaceful week.

As with all my videos, I'm trying to explain everything as clearly as possible and provide examples from my life to help you understand. I might not get everything right every time, but I wanted to give it a go, and I hope it will be of benefit to you. This Vlog is from my perspective, but I do appreciate that not everyone will have had the same experience as myself - we are all different after all. I have also tried, where applicable, to reference everything correctly, but we are all human and make mistakes - please stick with me.
