Assignment: Controversy Associated with Personality and Paraphilic Disorders
Between 10% and 20% of the population experience personality disorders. They are difficult to treat as individuals with personality disorders are less likely to seek help than individuals with other mental health disorders. Treatment can be challenging as they do not see their symptoms as painful to themselves or others.

Do neurotransmitters play a role in regulating your mood, adaptive behavior, and motivation?Explain how neurotransmitters are tied into information transmission and mood creation?
Research has proven that the disposition to seek pleasure has been linked to the brains reward system, while the tendency to avoid or withdraw from stimuli has been linked to the amygdala. The left prefrontal cortex has been linked to positive effects, while the right prefrontal cortex has been linked to negative effects. The prefrontal cortex also affects how we self-regulate our behavior.
