Dependent personality disorder
(DPD), formerly known as asthenic personality disorder, is a personality disorder that is characterized by a pervasive psychological dependence on other people. The difference between a 'dependent personality' and a 'dependent personality disorder' is somewhat subjective, which makes a diagnosis sensitive to cultural influences such as gender role expectations.

Criteria/Signs:
-Has difficulty making everyday decisions without an excessive amount of advice and reassurance from others
-Needs others to assume responsibility for most major areas of his or her life
-Has difficulty expressing disagreement with others because of fear of loss of support or approval (this does not include realistic fears of retribution)
-Has difficulty initiating projects or doing things on his or her own (because of a lack of self-confidence in judgment or abilities rather than a lack of motivation or energy)
-Goes to excessive lengths to obtain nurturance and support from others, to the point of volunteering to do things that are unpleasant
-Feels uncomfortable or helpless when alone because of exaggerated fears of being unable to care for himself or herself
-Urgently seeks another relationship as a source of care and support when a close relationship ends
-Is unrealistically preoccupied with fears of being left to take care of himself or herself

Treatment Goals
-ability to make commitments;
-enjoyment of intimacy;
-skills as a team player -- without need to compete with the leader;
-willingness to seek the opinions and advice of others;
-ability to promote interpersonal harmony;
-thoughtfulness and consideration for others; and,
-willingness to self-correct in response to criticism.
