Histrionic PD is among the cluster B personality disorders. Personality disorders in this scope are people who are dramatic, emotional and attention-seeking, with generally variable and superficial emotional states. They experience intense interpersonal conflicts.
The basic features of histrionic personality disorder are generally manifested by excessive attention-seeking and emotionality patterns. These are;
° Histrionic individuals are better at attracting attention. They demand intense love from the people around them. These individuals, who strive to be the center of general attention in an environment, do not like environments where they cannot achieve this.
° The reality that life alone is impossible makes them think, "I must always attract and admire others in order for them to help me." It pushes you to think.
° When you see these individuals in an environment, you can notice them both by their physical appearance, fake behavior and speaking style. Attractive style and colors help him on his way to his goal.
° He has an emotional speaking style that reflects his impressions, is unclear, full of exaggerations and misses details.
