This book describes Neurotic personality (Neuroticism), Diagnosis and Treatment and Related Diseases
“Doubt is to certainty as neurosis is to psychosis.
The neurotic is doubtful and is fearful about persons and things; the psychotic has beliefs and makes claims about them. In short, the neurotic has problems while the psychotic has solutions.”
Neurotic Personality (Neuroticism) is called a personality trait rather than a medical disorder.
Neuroticism is a long-term tendency to be in a neurotic or anxious emotional state.
People often confuse this personality trait with neurosis, a mental disorder.
Neurotic personality is one of the traits that make up the big five-factor model of personality alongside extroversion, agreeability, conscientiousness, and openness.
Within the Big Five dimension, Neuroticism, are 6 facets that further specify the traits that make a person neurotic.
A neurotic personality has little natural safeguard against stress.
The person sees everyday circumstances as far worse than they really are, and then blame him or her for the excessive pessimism and negativity.
The patient might often feel:
Irritated
Angry
Sad
Guilty
Worried
Hostile
Self-consciousness
Vulnerable
It helps identify people who are susceptible to psychological distress.
People with low scores on neuroticism are more prone to handle stress effectively.

It is important to note that even though those who score low on Neuroticism have low negative emotions, it does not follow that they are high on positive emotions.
If the patient can control the anxiety and stress, it may help stop the neurotic behaviors.
Self-treatment may work if the anxiety is mild and transient.
Exercises every day.
Thirty minutes is best, but even a 15-minute walk can help the patient to feel better.
Talks to someone.
Tells family and friends what is causing the anxiety, and let them know how they can assist him.
Get enough sleep.
A lack of sleep can make anxiety and stress worse.
Cut back on alcohol and caffeine.
They can also make anxiety worse.
Eat well-balanced meals.
Healthy meals and snacks enhance the energy.
Reframe the thoughts.
It is not always easy, but the person should try to substitute negative thoughts with positive ones.
