There are three possible theories. The first relates to the possible genetic and hereditary connections that can be linked to other mental disorders. There is also the possibility of a social connection with the early developmental environment that the patient has grown up in. The third theory focuses on the psychological and coping mechanisms created that may result in Histrionic Personality Disorder. Normally the disorder has an early adult onset and is not seen until the person reaches their late teens or early twenties. Genetically speaking, there is no scientific way to confirm that Histrionic Personality Disorder is in fact passed on. What can be seen is some of the underlying disorders that may cause or enhance this issue. There is also the fact of the familial relations having the same order and giving credence to the possibility that it has a genetic connection. Some other disorders can be linked. Usually there is a family history of anxiety, depression, hyperactivity disorders, narcissism, and other emotionally based conditions. These conditions, separately, do not mean so much in connection with Histrionic Personality Disorder; however, taken together, they present a possibility that there is a higher likelihood of hereditary disposition.

As mentioned earlier, people with PPD have severe trust issues and they are unlikely to seek or undergo treatment willfully or even believe that they have a problem. Usually, they attend therapy sessions as a result of an ultimatum issued by either a spouse or an employer. If the threat imposed by these outsiders was lifted, there is a high probability that the patient will cease treatment. Therefore, the first step of treatment is to get the patient to acknowledge that they need help. Once that critical phase has been passed, several methods of treatment may be undertaken. The success rate for each method of treatment is difficult to determine due to a lack of data. Because PPD patients usually do not trust healthcare providers, they are likely to discontinue any form of treatment they started to undergo. This makes it difficult to accurately gauge the success of a treatment program over time. However, there is an indication that improvements may be realized by those who continue their treatment program.Not all methods of treatment will work for all individuals. Treatment should be based on the individual patient's temperament, PPD subtype, and medical history. Tags: personality disorders, Paranoid Personality disorder, PPD, paranoid personality

Download or read book Distancing written by Martin Kantor MD and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-11-30 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kantor focuses on a misunderstood but common condition that brings severe and pervasive anxiety about social contacts and relationships. He offers psychotherapists a specific method for helping avoidants overcome their fear of closeness and commitments, and offers a guide for avoidants themselves to use for developing lasting, intimate, anxiety-free relationships. Fear of intimacy and commitment keeps avoidants from forming close, meaningful relationships. Types of avoidants can include confirmed bachelors, femme fatales, and people who form what appear to be solid relationships only to tire of them and leave with little warning, often devastating their partners/victims. Kantor takes us through the history of this disorder, and into clinical treatment rooms, to see and hear how avoidants think, feel, and recover. He offers psychotherapists a specific method for helping avoidants overcome their fear of closeness and commitments, and offers a guide for avoidants themselves to use for developing lasting, intimate, anxiety-free relationships. The avoidance reduction techniques presented in this book recognize that avoidants not only fear criticism and humiliation, but also fear being flooded by their feelings and being depleted if they express them. Acceptance is feared as much as rejection, because avoidants fear compromising their identity and losing personal freedom. Kantor describes the different therapeutic emphasis required for the four types of avoidants, including those who are withdrawn due to shyness and social phobia, such as people who intensely fear public speaking; those who relate easily, widely, and well, but cannot sustain relationships due to fear of closeness; those whose restlessness causes them to leave steady relationships, often without warning; and those who grow dependent on—and merge with—a single lover or family member and avoid relating to anyone else.
