The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition, presents in its Section III an alternative model for diagnosing Personality Disorders, which tries to amend some of the problems of the official model, included in Section II. Is it of remarkable interest the possibility that this model, whose main axes are the personality functioning and the personality traits, brings us of being able to characterize with precision a patient that meets criteria of more than one personality disorders or does not fully meet criteria for a single one. The possibility of using it as a tool to evaluate the functioning of a patient and designing a specific treatment plan according to his or her personality is also contemplated. In this article is present a patient whose behaviour is altered, her personality is characterised according to this model and he evolution is observed.
