Abstract:
The relationship between personality disorders and panic disorder in adults is analyzed in this study. The patients included in this work presented anxiety disorder with agoraphobia and were compared with a group of normal controls. The percentage of patients with personality disorder was 46% significantly higher than those encountered in the control group (16%). The existence of these disorders do not seem to modify the severity of panic disorder.
