Personality disorders are a category of mental disorders characterized by enduring maladaptive patterns of behavior, cognition, and inner experiences, which deviate from cultural norms and cause significant distress or impairment. Deviant behavior that cannot be classified as psychotic or neurotic is most likely to fall under this category. Psychotic disorders are characterized by a loss of touch with reality, such as hallucinations or delusions, while neurotic disorders involve excessive anxiety, worry, or fear. Organic disorders, on the other hand, are caused by a physical disease or injury to the brain.
