Histrionic personality disorder
I'm currently studying psychology at university, today during lectures we looked at disorders such as histrionic personality disorder. I discovered that a lot of the symptoms aply to my boyfriends behaviour. I'm on a break with him at current, as I found is behaviour too bizarreat times, and after studying this it related to it.
Basically I love this guy, but some of his traits annoy me. Obviously I can't suggest to him that he has this disorder, but I don't want to dump him now, I want to help him, but I can't tell him without medical advice, yet if I suggested that to him, he would probably totally disagree with me.
I'm really stuck now, as after reading up it says its less common in men, but so many symptoms are alike its freaky. Please can anyone help me out if they know anything about this disorder or living with someone with the disorder?
