I think it's dangerous to say all As have personality disorders.
Mine did have something going on over and above the alcoholism. What it was/is, I have no idea.. I'm no psychologist/psychiatrist. I don't know if it was a personality disorder or any other issue and tbh, I don't care. I don't know if his alcoholism was the cause or a symptom.. again, I don't know and I don't care. That's his stuff to deal with and always was.
I found trying to diagnose and understand what was going on in his head was an exercise in futility, which would only serve to send me as ******* crazy as he appeared to be. My only job was/is to recognise when someone is not good for me and to cut out the toxicity in my life.
