In the early 2000s, a big study, National Institutes of Health, the alcoholism subdivision of NIH, they wanted to see how prevalent personality disorders were with substance abuse, with domestic conflicts, with criminal behavior, and workplace conflicts. And so this study, they looked at all 10 personalities, came up with numbers for each. Five of them seem prone to high conflict behavior.

So these five, I can give you statistics on. And I can give you breakdown male and female, all from 20 years ago. Big study because it hasn't been repeated since. So basically cluster B, that's narcissistic, borderline, antisocial, histrionic, but we see a lot of paranoid in legal disputes.

And some research says paranoid personality disorder is the most likely to sue their employer of the personality disorders. So that's gotten attention too. So here's some numbers. First of all, narcissistic personality disorder they found was about 6% of adults in the United States. They found the statistics on that was 38% female and 62% male. So that's more heavily male. 20 years ago.

Could be different now because of environmental influences. Borderline, also about 6%. This was 53% female, 47% male. Almost 50-50. And that shocked the mental health world because we've always thought of borderline as a female disorder. But Marsha Lanahan, the big name in treatment for borderline, says she agrees. She thinks that's true.

And I think that's true as a family lawyer because a lot of the men that we see engaged in domestic violence seem to have the borderline personality pattern. And the domestic violence is much more male than female. Then antisocial is around 4%, and that's about 75% male, 25% female.

Histrionic is about 2%, and they found this is about 50-50, which again surprised people because you think drama, center of attention, all of that. And this may be very much environmental influence. Our culture today teaches, especially young men, to try to get attention. Ride your skateboard behind a car or jump off a building, do all these dramatic things to get attention.

And social media has really encouraged that. Everyone wants attention and now you kind of have to fight for it in our culture. And so men as well as women are getting out there often in dramatic ways. So it came out about 50-50. Paranoid, it's about 4%. Came out, I think it was 57 to 43%, somewhere right around that, a little more heavily female. but not all that far apart.
