Histrionic Personality Disorder

Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD) is a mental health disorder that features extreme emotions, and a constant need for attention, approval, and admiration from others. All of these traits can cause problems with relationships, and personal, and professional life. We understand HPD at Orlando Treatment Solutions and are committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for a well-balanced life. 

Understanding Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD)

Persistent excessive emotionality and a need to be the center of attention characterize HPD. Some people with HPD frequently present overly dramatic or exaggerated emotions and are impulsive in their actions to obtain attention. It’s a natural thing to need validation, but people with HPD tend to need it to a higher degree and it can interfere with daily life, relationships, and other areas of their life. They may find it uncomfortable when not the focus of attention, and their interactions often include rapidly shifting emotions, a theatrical presentation, and intense fears of physical appearance.

Common symptoms of HPD include:

  • It’s always about getting reassurance or approval from others.
  • Being easily persuaded by what other people say or want.
  • An overwhelming need to be noticed and acknowledged.
  • Being overly sensitive to criticism or perceived rejection.
  • Deep emotions that are capable of changing very rapidly.
  • Tendency to see relationships as more intimate than they are

HPD, if not treated, will begin to get in the way of socializing and working with other people, and can cause the feeling of being alone and frustrated. However, professional treatment can help people to manage their symptoms and learn healthier emotional patterns.

Why It’s Necessary to Treat Histrionic Personality Disorder

Treatments for HPD are important, as the disorder affects so many areas in a person’s life. People with HPD may struggle with maintaining reliable relationships and are impulsive, therefore, they have a hard time making decisions. They’ll risk getting stuck in a cycle of unhealthy patterns in their lives, where they will be misunderstood and unable to connect with others deeply.

Early intervention with personalized care can:

  • Help people develop healthier coping strategies.
  • Lower impulsivity, and improve emotional regulation.
  • It helps you improve self-awareness and understanding of your thoughts and emotions.
  • Help boost relationship quality by making sure to teach effective communication skills.
  • Help create such positive behavior changes which are in support of long-term stability.

Personalized treatment plans that are based on the unique needs of each person are one of the things to keep in mind when you opt for treatment at Orlando Treatment Solutions. We want to equip people with HPD with the tools available to help them become successful in navigating their emotions and their relationships.

Treatment Options

Our treatment plans are developed as per our clients’ needs and are focused on each person’s symptoms, challenges, and goals. Some of the primary treatment options we offer include: 

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a highly effective therapy that looks at ways of changing poor thought patterns and behaviors. CBT helps people with HPD to recognize the types of thoughts that cause attention-seeking behavior and replace these thoughts with healthier responses. Working with a therapist, people learn to read social interactions more appropriately, to curb impulsivity, and to use appropriate ways to express emotion.

DBT is a form of therapy that teaches you to build skills in emotional regulation, mindfulness, and distress tolerance. This is especially helpful for those with HPD who experience very rapid mood swings and very strong emotions. Through DBT clients learn the tools to manage difficult emotions, step up their interpersonal effectiveness, and become more resilient in stressful situations. Furthermore, it can help them to see and change extreme reactions

Group therapy is an opportunity to receive support from others living with the same issues, and to practice healthy social interaction. Clients can gain insight into behaviors, grow empathy, and acquire communication skills that help relationship quality in a safe, structured setting. For people with HPD, often this can provide solace in the fact they’re not alone and can also derive support from a sharing of experiences.

HPD may change family dynamics, as this disorder may lead to misconceptions and harm relationships. Family therapy allows the family to participate in therapy, for the support of the person and the improvement of family communication. We use family therapy through which we work with clients and their families on specific concerns, setting healthy boundaries, and mutual understanding.

Through mindfulness practices, an individual with HPD can gain more awareness of their thoughts and emotions. With mindfulness practice, clients can learn how to manage emotional responses and develop self-regulation skills. Meditation, deep breathing, or even simple grounding exercises can lower your stress level, and promote self-awareness and emotional resilience.
