Would undiagnosed personality disorders have hurt the Collins submarine computerization effort ?

Question

"Sudz" sent this terrific info.

<<People with personality disorders who already have been diagnosed and are receiving help via psychiatrist/psychologist/support group are less likely to have interruptions in the work place, those without ongoing support are more likely to have relapses that may place them in a position to take time off to deal with issues that should have been dealt with ongoing. The best people to work with have high functioning (go getters/type A personalities) and with over 35 million people prescribed prozac at some point in life to deal with everything from grieving to family problems it is improbable that you may not come across someone who has been diagnosed with a disorder. The key here is ongoing treatment and severity with complex issues like suicide or hallucinations.
