remember the criteria for histrionic personality disorder is PRAISE

He regularly posts provocative stuff in order to get others, that shows
his exhibitionist behavior and need to be at the center of the
attention. He definitely suffers from some kind of a personality
disorder. I would humbly request the likes of Judy and Jim to stop
responding to him and feeding his paranoid behavior. He certainly craves
for the negative attention so he can perpetuate his paranoid delusional
behavior.
I have lived with someone who had paranoid personality disorder, so I
can easily recognize the flags here.
I wrote my article on Small Penis disorder, half in jest and half in
seriousness but we need to definitely examine it again.
Here's a list of characteristics that I have noticed which mostly are
histrionic and paranoid personality disorders.
* Exhibitionist and need to be the center of attention (Histrionic
personality disorder)
* Constant seeking of reassurance or approval (Histrionic personality
disorder)
* Excessive dramatics with exaggerated
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exaggerated> displays of emotions
(Histrionic personality disorder)
* Excessive sensitivity to criticism
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism> or disapproval. (Histrionic
personality disorder)
* Strong feelings of inadequacy (Avoidant but easily applies to
Paranoid as well)
* Tendency to bear grudges indefinitely (Paranoid personality
disorder)
* Excessive sensitivity to setbacks and rebuffs (Paranoid personality
disorder)
* Tendency to experience excessive self-importance, manifest in a
persistent self-referential attitude (Paranoid personality disorder)
I'm leaning towards Histrionic Personality disorder
Cluster B (dramatic, emotional or erratic disorders)Histrionic
personality disorder: pervasive attention-seeking
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention-seeking> behavior including
inappropriate sexual seductiveness and shallow or exaggerated emotions.
These individuals are lively, dramatic, enthusiastic, and
flirtatious.They may be inappropriately sexually provocative, express
strong emotions with an impressionistic style, and be easily influenced
by others. Associated features may include egocentrism
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egocentrism> , self-indulgence, continuous
longing for appreciation, and persistent manipulative
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_manipulation> behavior to
achieve their own needs.
Hope he gets the help he surely deserves. I haven't posted in the last
several weeks but this is the main reason I have stopped responding to
his messages.
Love - Ravi Yogi, wearing his therapist hat.
