10 Symptoms of a Histrionic Personality Disorder
Symptom #5: Over Dramatic
We can all get emotional from time to time. It is all but impossible to keep clear of things that upset us, and emotions are a very natural response. Usually, though, our emotions are proportionate and appropriate to the situation at hand. Some people, however, can act with a disproportionate degree of emotion even over the smallest of things.
People with histrionic personality disorder are likely to become very emotional. Whenever an issue does arise, they can act in a theatrical manner, over-exaggerating the problem significantly. Their mood can be very easy to shift, and it can be quite apparent to others that their actions are all just an act.
