What Is Histrionic Personality Disorder?
3. Attention Seeking
People with histrionic personality disorder will tend to have strong social skills. The down side is that they can use these skills to try and manipulate other people. Their skill will often be put to use to help ensure that they are the center of attention all the time. They can feel very uncomfortable if they are not getting the attention they want.
Somebody with histrionic personality disorder is also likely to feel the need to seek approval from other people around them. If the approval is not forthcoming then they can become upset and become even more desperate for attention and approval from others.
