In most text books, which were written more than 10 years ago, an individual’s personality was considered a relatively enduring characteristic immune to change. Contrary to such evidence, research these days tends to suggest personality has an ability to transform over time. Through this transformation, which does not have to be directly related to physical brain injury (Lishman, 1998), an individual can develop certain idiosyncrasies unlike their previous self. Although first characterized in the case of Phineas Gage, where an individual sustained damage to the frontal lobes and exhibited a differing personality, actual personality change can be brought on through a variety of causes such as mood disorders, brain disorders, illicit toxins and systemic diseases. Personality, as expressed by Funder (2007), is a complex machine unlike any other, and similar to any machine, has the likability to convolute, self destruct and be rebuilt, at varying stages throughout a person’s lifespan. These changes, throughout a person’s life, clearly suggests external factors such as stress, anxiety, depression as culpable assailants to ones persona, and as such, clearly gives evidence as to how personality can change, and in doing so, reshape an individual.
