The stigma of personality disorder is longstanding, widespread, prodigious, and harmful. Fortunately, recent advances in our understanding of personality pathology, as well as an increasing interest in stigma, have demonstrated the importance of destigmatization and have catalyzed significant research in this area. In this special issue of Personality and Mental Health, we spotlight the stigma of personality disorders to understand the current research landscape in this area, and to chart a direction for future research. Each of the nine papers included here advances our understanding of stigma, including its manifestation, impacts, and potential solutions. Collectively, they show significant progress in the study of personality disorders stigma, support the importance of destigmatizing personality pathology, and highlight pathways for future research.
