I would suggest first talking to your family doctor about it and if they think you need to see a psychiatrist or a psychologist then got see one and maybe they will advise you to one. One the cost side I'm not sure about that.

A personality disorder isn't really a big deal unless they are dissociative. I MOOD disorder or a CHEMICAL disorder is a big deal.
Here's how to break PD's down.
narcissistic - you are a jerk who thinks the world revolves around you.
histrionic - you are a drama queen who wishes the world revolved around you.
borderline - you are a needy clingy person who never feels sure that they are loved
schizoid - you want to be left alone
schizotypal - you think magic is real and you're afraid of most people
Mood disorders
Bipolar or Major Depressive
Chemical/Neurological disorders
Schizophrenia
Dementia
Psychotic
Talk to a psychiatrist. Psychologists can't even prescribe meds.
