why isn't this categorised under psychology? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.47.179.230 (talkcontribs) 21:08, 5 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

This Needs a Lot of Work

edit

considering his variants are named in almost every personality disorder article.

His website has a biography: http://www.millon.net/content/tm_bio.htm. MichaelExe (talk) 20:08, 31 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yes this article is bad for such a major figure. It should have better biographical info. Yes If i am going to include his variants here at all, i ought to do them for all PDs. Do you agree ? Actually i think it best to provide direct links to the relevant sections in all the PD articles. Incidentally I am getting my ass kicked in the Psychopathy article - dunno if you want to get involved ?--Penbat (talk) 20:13, 31 October 2009 (UTC)—Preceding unsigned comment added by Flan456 (talkcontribs) 21:22, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
At the end of the article there's an assertion his subtypes are 'widely acknowledged' but the citations are to his own website! I was looking for verification of his notability. I thought of taking the phrase 'widely acknowledged' out until anyone with references fancies putting it in but wasn't sure if that was the right thing to do? I don't know the appropriate Template and not sure I want to search. I find the whole body of work and consistently also any references to it very stuffy over-blown and sort-of offensive - I find myself unable read it closely! I was suspicious when I naively first stumbled into the references in the personality disorder article. His bio is here: shttp://www.millon.net/content/tm_bio.htm Kathybramley (talk) 13:01, 12 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Another huge issue - Exuberant/Hypomanic (turbulent) personality disorder subtypes links to the cyclothymia page, but EET PDs are not discussed on that page, likely because cyclothymia is a distinct mood disorder, not a PD. In fact, if you have a client who tests as having EET symptoms, Millon's associates suggest a dx of PD NOS essentially, not cyclothymia. 208.103.1.195 (talk) 22:14, 15 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Theodore Millon: sufferer of NPD?

edit

Dude was a hack/pseudoscience propagator/professional pigeonholer/in-the-flesh phenomenological scourge. Article needs a section on counter-arguments tbf. Yes I’m biased, but so is this article. It’s obvious I’m ill-suited to edit, so this serves as more of an emphatic request for someone impartial to fix it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:8080:1940:900:812A:4458:F731:E3CA (talk) 22:53, 14 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

“Decompensated Personality Disorder?”

edit

Can anyone provide any context on this? It links to Pervasive Developmental Disorder which does not mention it at all, and little information appears to be available as to what it is, "Individuals with decompensated personality disorder typically require institutionalization, since they simply cannot function in society." is the most I could find. What were Millon's subtypes on it too, since I was unable to find any mentioned anywhere? RaffaelloAngeloni (talk) 15:05, 8 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
