Being over dramatic is another sign of histrionic personality disorder. Our feelings and emotions can range from being very happy to extremely sad. There are different factors that affect which emotion will be more apparent than others in a specific situation and time. All of our emotions are just natural responses by our mind to external or internal factors such as hormones, stress, or social issues.

People with histrionic personality disorder frequently overreact to things and exaggerates whichever emotion they have to gain sympathy from others. They may also display sudden radical changes in their mood just to catch some attention. Furthermore, they will exhibit intense sadness and quickly switch to being remarkably overwhelmed.
