Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD) is a mental health condition
characterized by excessive emotionality and attention-seeking behavior.
Individuals with HPD often display intense and rapidly shifting emotions,
dramatic expression of emotions, and a strong desire to be the center of
attention. They may use flamboyant or seductive behavior to draw attention to
themselves and may have a tendency to exaggerate relationships or emotions for
dramatic effect.
People with HPD often have difficulty maintaining long-lasting
relationships due to their shallow and unstable emotions, as well as their
tendency to seek constant validation and approval from others. Additionally,
they may be easily influenced by others and have a heightened sensitivity to
criticism or rejection.
Treatment for HPD typically involves psychotherapy, particularly
cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), aimed
at addressing underlying emotional dysregulation, improving interpersonal
skills, and fostering healthier coping mechanisms. Medication may also be
prescribed to alleviate symptoms such as depression or anxiety that often
coexist with HPD.
