I know a bunch of histrionics.

And also, I didn't know what that word meant when I got 56% Histrionic in a personality test... so thanks for the enlightenment.

I think a hell of a lot of people could be considered histrionic. Especially if the judgement is made by a person who is rather an introvert, about a person who is more of an extrovert.

I got 56% histrionic on that quiz....which is quite apt because even though I'm really shy, I also like attention. I'm odd.

Studying personality disorders is really interesting happy

I believe everyone could be considered histrionic. It's not as if no one has episodes. What is a normal human being anyway?

Hi, btw. stick out tongue
