10 Symptoms of a Histrionic Personality Disorder
Symptom #4: Easily Influenced
We are all influenced by other people to some degree. Peer pressure influences much of our lives from how we dress to what we eat. We are also likely to be influenced by friends on nights out and the activities we get involved in. Despite this, most of us are able to say ‘no’ when we think certain ideas are potentially harmful in some way.
For people with histrionic personality disorder, however, it is much harder to say ‘no’. It can be very easy to influence them into doing things they would not normally do, even if it is potentially damaging to them or others. This is a trait that can potentially lead to them being taken advantage of by others with nefarious intentions.
