Cluster B Personality Disorders: A Character Analysis

Cluster B personality disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterized by dramatic, overly emotional, or unpredictable thinking and behavior. This analysis will examine three specific Cluster B disorders - Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD), and Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) - through the lens of fictional characters:

• Barry, the Carpet Cleaner (NPD)

• Jape, the Car Salesman (HPD)

• Brain, the Newspaper Salesman (BPD)

While these characters are fictional, their traits and behaviors are based on the diagnostic criteria for each disorder as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).

• Preoccupation with fantasies of success: He dreams of expanding his business into a national franchise, envisioning himself as a wealthy and powerful entrepreneur.

• Belief in being special and unique: Barry thinks only a select few can appreciate his level of expertise and often dismisses the work of other cleaners as inferior.

• Need for excessive admiration: He expects constant praise and recognition from his clients and becomes upset if they fail to acknowledge his "brilliance."

• Sense of entitlement: Barry feels entitled to special treatment and discounts from suppliers, often becoming angry if his demands are not met.

• Exploitation of others: He may overcharge clients or cut corners on cleaning jobs to maximize his profits, showing little regard for their needs.

• Inappropriate seductiveness: He often uses flirtatious behavior and suggestive remarks to manipulate and influence potential buyers.

• Rapidly shifting and shallow emotions: Jape's emotional responses can be shallow and fleeting, changing quickly depending on the situation.

• Use of physical appearance to draw attention: He takes great care in his appearance, dressing flamboyantly and using his charm to make a lasting impression.

• Suggestibility and easily influenced: He is easily swayed by the opinions of others and may change his views or behaviors to fit in with the crowd.
