Q: What are two surefire ways to identify someone with a personality disorder and someone you might want to minimize your contact with?
A: First, ask them what they need to get better at to have a better life (then steel yourself when they become negative or draw a blank). Alternatively, after they complain or vent about something ask them: What (happened)? So what (is the problem you are having)? Now what (do you want to do about it)? The more ballistic they go, the more likely they have a personality disorder.
