I think you mean personality traits and clinical disorders. clinical disorders are not absolute but exist on a spectrum. If a person exhibits a certain number of specific symptoms over a specified period of time, they will receive a clinical diagnosis. having personality traits means that a person exhibits a portion of what it takes to be diagnosed with a personality disorder. for example, a person can have narcissistic traits (we all do, actually) but not have narcissistic personality disorder.
The difference is that Personality Disorders affect only a few rare individuals whereas everybody has individual Personality Traits.
Personality Disorders are problems a few men or women may have in their personality which get them into trouble in their lives. These are characterised by that person's failure to learn from experience or adapt appropriately to changes. As a result people having one or more Personality Disorders usually experience personal distress, serious impairment of social functioning and difficulties in employment, usually leading to them being failures in their working life and/or committing criminal offences sometimes leading to jail.
There are three groups of personality disorders that people may suffer from, although most people with personality disorders tend to have two or more of them within their overall personality and character. The groups involve :
a/ Extremely weird behaviour - including a Paranoid Personality Disorder, a Schizoid Personality Disorder, a Schizotypal Personality Disorder, and Self- Defeating or Masochist Personality Disorder.
b/ Extremely dramatic/emotional behaviour - including Histrionic Personality Disorder, Narcissistic Personality Disorder & Antisocial Personality Disorder.
c/ Behaviour dominated by anxiety and/or fear - including Dependent Personality Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder and Passive Aggressive Personality Disorder.
Regarding Personality Traits, we all have them. They are a normal part of being a human being whether you are male or female. Assessment of any normal individual's personality involves assessing the degree he or she has or does not have of each of what are termed "the Big Five Personality Factor Models". These 5 are:-
1. Openness to experience.
2. Conscientiousness.
3. Extroversion.
4. Agreeableness
5. Emotional stability or Neurosis
1. trait might be a common stule from ypur actions or way of doing things. Personality disorder goes too far and effects your daily life rather than a conversation, task, relationship.

The parents of autistic children do not have a certain set of personality traits. They differ as with all people.
Because adolescence, by definition, only lasts for 5-10 years, while a personality disorder, by definition, lasts for a lifetime.
Not all mental abusers are. A narcissist is someone who suffers from a specific personality disorder called "Narcissistic Personality Disorder." This disorder is relatively rare. Not all abusers suffer from the Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) - although many of them have narcissistic traits.
1/ Typically personality traits are only graduated to a disorder when they are inflexible or maladaptive; to the point that it creates significant chaos and disruption in the life of those who are exhibiting the traits. Problems in society, such as work or interpersonal relations, when caused as a direct result of personality traits are considered as disorder. Sad but true. If you are getting along well for the most part with your personality traits then it is not considered disorder. For the most part we as a society exhibit similar traits, but to varying degrees. When the degree is too little or extreme this is a sign of disorder .2/ May I try to explain the difference between Personality Disorders and Personality traits.
