From Ohio! Thanks David! Mine was not a respecter of place! He blew up everywhere! That’s one of the things he was consistent with and so predictable! I see myself overlapping into every area! LOL
@@daviddemars Exactly! I got to the point that when he asked me if I wanted him to go with me grocery shopping I said no! At most functions I would stay away from him! I found out I could be more social without him! I did feel like my brain was on high alert! It was exhausting!
Not a question David but I want to thank you for your service. It's been a long time since I last looked at your videos but sometimes I need a refresher, and it's great to see you're still providing help. You've helped me a ton, sir, along with Richard Grannon and others who specialize in victims of dark triad personality disorders. And I am currently helping my mother with her case thanks to you. Sometimes she watches you also. I still remember your very first videos when you were still coming to terms with what you yourself were struggling with at the time. I hope many of the folks still seeking help will reach as long a way as you have in recovery and leave all the vitriol from these relationships behind. It's a long enduring battle to get over abuse for sure. Stay well and healthy, David. Blessings from the Philippines.
You are so kind, thank you very much for your support and your Mother is a lucky person. Keep being sweet, a very endearing quality that you have not allowed people to change about you.
Hi David! Very grateful for your video! Thank you so much! My uncle was histrionic with strong over narcissist traits and my cousin is also histrionic. Anyone could hardly have any meaningful conversation. Always interrupts, didn't listen to your opinion, finishes sentences, super loud, even stand up by the table frequently to speak up, while other just sitting. Very wild!
Histronics become like this due to narcissistic parents, as we were always the invisible child... I have some NPD traits and little bit BPD traits. I manage very well my histrionic symphtoms and i often was missdiagnosted with bpd. My worst is adhd, abd c-ptsd due to being raised by a malignent narcisssistic father with bpd traits.
Hi David Thank you for the video,. I looked at the C-ptsd playlist it’s very helpful. HPD probably can’t develop as a result of C-ptsd? I am sharing your videos on C-ptsd forums and people struggling with narcissistic people, your advice is always so clear and true and practical, thank you David.
Hi Emile, thank you for sharing and supporting my work! C-PTSD is a stress disorder and is not necessarily prominent in every person diagnosed with HPD but I think may be common.
@@daviddemars Hi David I recently discovered the word alexithymia. Does it mean the difficulty in articulating emotions or does it mean that you don’t understand any emotion in general for example you think a happy emotion is exactly the same as a sad emotion something like in autism?
Hasn't there been talk about merging Histrionic with Borderline or just omitting it altogether? My ex was Diagnosed BPD, and she had every single Histrionic trait as well. Thanks David! EDIT - you touched on this right away - great video David!
Thank you Andrew. Yes, there will be more changes in the DSM. There has been changes in each of the editions. Many professionals believe they are the same and that may happen but we will have to see. If this person does in fact have every single trait of HPD she may not have every BPD trait?
@@daviddemars hi David, she ticked off every trait except for the anger / rage. When situations like that would arise she would literally blank out / dissociate and get a really scared / sad / confused look on her face. I think she was more of the quiet BPD type. She has all other 8 traits in perpetuity - they were all very common on a daily / weekly basis.
I just want to point out that I see a trend that people say they are a HSP and seem proud of it. I know its a personality trait and not a diagnose and its one of those overlapping things that happend in between. As experienced in BPD I see a lot of similarities. Also from bipolar. Its intresting how pieces of your personality can create a cluster.
I was told at work (Psychiatric care) supposedly the DSM is getting rid of Histrionic as a diagnosis, and merging it into BPD as part of the behavior criteria. After working with this type of personality for some time, it would make sense to merge them.
i have hunch that all that confusion about personality disorders comes from our inability to try categorize something that is hard to categorize because it is on the spectrum and in different directions and we try to put ramifications on it.
Davie, never ever say that again. Knowing something does not make anyone smart or stupid. That would mean all children are dumb. Yes, its a spectrum. You can say we are all on.
@@daviddemars dave hey apologies man. I edited it out. I put that because of the ppl who were saying they were BPD but saying they don't exhibit what you're saying essentially making u out to be someone who doesn't know what they're saying or whatever Sorry about that. This is ur channel and I don't want to contribute to any negative stuff on it.
CLUSTER B VIDEOS ARE SO INTERESTING. . NARCISSISM IS WHAT I AM MOST FAMILIAR WITH. THANKS DAVID FOR THIS IMPORTANT EDUCATION FOR US.
You are very welcome and thank you for telling me!
Only 1.4 percent? How is it that I know all of them? Lmfao!😂

Hi Rory! That will force our brains to believe that danger is always right around the corner.

@@rorywright5692 So good you aware of this now, hindsight is 20/20. Never forget that feeling so you can recognize it again.

I feel that borderline personality is not spoken about enough. Thank you for sharing your knowledge

Good comparison, great explanation.

Hi David!
Do histrionics do the idealize and devalue too or is that more common with BPD? Also are manic phases common with histrionics, BPD or NPD?
I was told at work (Psychiatric care) supposedly the DSM is getting rid of Histrionic as a diagnosis, and merging it into BPD as part of the behavior criteria. After working with this type of personality for some time, it would make sense to merge them.
Not for me. Know both and they feel very, very different to me.
Yes, rumors like this are frequent. A few years ago, narcissistic personality disorder was almost deleted from the DSM 4 too, or just a rumor.
Borderline or Histrionic? Let me check my Calendar.
Lol
I just like to listen.
Thanks so much
BPD- reduction of sex-- nailed it. I am curious if you know the ‘why- they lose interest in sex’. ?
I think it is a form of getting control.
If someone with BPD say I don’t do that it could be the case that they’re saying that because they are BPD!
👌

Histi Is Greek ,Latin ? For ‘Acting . Not history or hysteria (hysteria in the womb)
Isn't it called a SPECTRUM for a reason? Higher spectrum exhibit mote traits than a lesser spectrum?
Davie, never ever say that again. Knowing something does not make anyone smart or stupid. That would mean all children are dumb.
Yes, its a spectrum. You can say we are all on.

He's not talking about any specific borderline...except for that one. You know what you did.
