I was diagnosed when I was 20 along with other things.

What was your childhood like and what experiences did you have that you believe may have formed this type of personality?
It was very lonely and difficult. My parents were tiger parents and I could never live up to there expectations. I tried hard in school but I could never get the grades my parents wanted and plus I have an intellectual disability which didn’t help. My dad had a very short temper and got violent easily. I got bullied a lot both at school and at home. Don’t get me wrong there were some good times but overall my childhood was very traumatic and a lot of my personality traits I have now was a response mechanism to all of it.
What is histrionic personality disorder?
From the Wikipedia page:
“Histrionic personality disorder (HPD) is defined by the American Psychiatric Association as a personality disorder characterized by a pattern of excessive attention-seeking behaviors, usually beginning in early adulthood, including inappropriate seduction and an excessive desire for approval.”
I approve of this copy pasting. Good job.
It gets the message across
It doesn’t tell anyone what it is actually like.
Which you could have explained, since you made an AMA thread and someone actually showed interest.So here’s my question for this AMA, I guess: What are your favorite links and google search terms?
“What is” was the question.
Not “What is it like”, “What is your experience”, “What does having it feel like”, etc.
So many people don’t know how words work.
(Downvote because you don’t know how words work and the only thing you can do is press down because mad.)
Does it mean you face some difficulties other people don’t?
Yes, absolutely. My emotions aren’t the same as everyone elses. It’s hard for me to be genuine and I have a chronic need for admiration and attention.
