BBC - Future - When personality changes from bad to good

I don't want brain surgery, but this to me is pretty suggestive that characteristics and ways of doing things that we (and others) don't like CAN be changed, with effective intervention or possibly training.

What that "intervention" might be for many personality disorders is still not very well known IMO. I haven't had very good luck with therapy for mine. Maybe eventually this kind of research might help?
Thanks for this!

Thanks for providing this link. I enjoy learning about current findings in brain research. My poor brain has taken a real beating over the years. (It's a long story.) And I've always wondered to what extent that may have contributed to the mental health problems I've had. The fact is I'll never know. But it's interesting to read about research into the connection between brain interventions, such as surgery, & changes in personality.
