What's the most common personality disorder?

I have a book on personality disorders. I was wondering, among people who are into psychology as much as I, which disorder you feel is the most common. I wonder if it's narcissism. I have ample information on that particular one.

anxiety disorders - phobias alone rank #1 as far as how many people have them

I think it may be obsessive compulsive disorder.

chronic liars, ego-centrics, obsessive compulsive, parnoids (in that order)

PEOPLE ASKING STUPID QUESTIONS

Look in the Diagnaositc Statistical Manual of psychology. It might or might not mention it in there.

I'm thinking borderline personality disorder.

Paranoid schizophrenic.

I think the most common would be body dysmorphic disorder. That's when people see themselves as drastically different than what everyone else sees. For example, a person with anexoria/bulimia might see themselves as grotesquely fat when they are rail thin.

I think phobias followed by non-specific neurosis then BDP and OCD.

Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder is the most common personality disorder, affecting about 8 percent of Americans.
