Such disorders can be deemed to be disorders when a given individual is significantly different from another person on average in relation to the manner in which they relate, perceive, think and relate to others. Such alterations in just how an individual is feeling, together with their beliefs which may be distorted, may result in the manifestation of behaviour that appears to be peculiar. Such actions and behaviour may therefore not be in line with that seen as acceptable socially.
