In principle it ought to be possible to treat sociopaths, but generally they do their utmost to avoid treatment. It's also said that their inability to learn (from experience) causes problems.
Is there such a thing as a mild form of schizophrenia?
Opinions are divided on that. Some clinicians say that mild cases of schizophrenia are possible, and are in fact true in cases of paranoid, schizoid, and schizotypal personality disorders. Others say that schizophrenia is schizophrenia, and you cannot have a milder form of it.
Is it possible for a person have Schizoaffective disorder and Borderline personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder?
It is technically possible- there is nothing specifically disallowing the diagnosis of all three- but it is unlikely. Schizoaffective disorder and OCD may be found together. In fact, 23% of people with schizophrenia can also be diagnosed with OCD. However, Borderline Personality Disorder is rarely found in people with schizophrenia and OCD.

Where is it possible to get a hold of dissociative disorder?
Dissociative disorder is previously known as multiple personality disorder. It is possible to get hold of dissociative disorder through a spouse, a significant other or another person with the disorder.
Will you get schizophrenia if you have bi polar disorder?

CAN SOMEONE WITH DID HAVE SCHIZOPHRENIA AND NON-SCHIZOPHRENIC PERSONALITY?
Yes, it's possible for someone with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) to have alters (distinct personalities) with different characteristics, which might include traits that resemble symptoms of schizophrenia. However, this doesn't mean that the person actually has schizophrenia. DID and schizophrenia are separate mental health conditions with distinct diagnostic criteria. It's important to consult with mental health professionals for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
Is it possible for someone to exhibit a majority of the symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder yet not have the condition?
Since narcissistic personality disorder is diagnosed symptomatically, a person with that disorder would exhibit a number of the symptoms. Given the nature of the symptoms, a person showing a majority of them would almost certainly be diagnosed. Note: Diagnosis of emotional issues in people close to us is fraught with chances for misinterpretation. We are too emotionally involved ourselves to make careful, objective assessments. Only a series of interviews with a mental health professional would result in an truly accurate diagnosis. (That is not to say that you are incorrect.)
Are dual disorders possible such as narcissism and bipolar?
Yes. I have been to see a psychologist for help with my 69 year old mother-in-law, who, according to my husband, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in the 80's. According to the doctor many of these personality disorders can overlap. Without seeing my MIL personally, but hearing about her total lack of boundaries and abusive history with her own children and what she has subjected me to, she believes she is suffering from borderline/narcissistic personality disorder.

AnswerIt is possible in some sense. You could act shy in public but be very talkative at home. You could be timid at school, but can easily say things over the Internet.AnswerIt is completely possible to have a split personality disorder but extremely rare. A social anxiety or bipolar disorder is more commonly associated with change of mood or personality.
