| 영문 | histrionic personality disorder | 한글 | 히스테리인격장애 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 지나치게 연극적이고 반응적이며 행동의 지나친 표현 및 특유한 대인관계의 장애를 주로 하는 정신병. 히스테리인격장애는 외부에 대한 반응이 지나치게 빠르고 자기를 과시하고 대인관계에서 피상적이고 불성실해서 대인관계에 장애가 있는 이상성격으로서 성심리가 미숙한 것이 특징이다. 언제나 자신을 멋지게 드러내 보이려 하고 다른 사람의 관심을 끌기 위해 과장된 표현을 한다. 아는 사람을 만나면 지나칠 정도로 반가워하고 마치 공주나 왕자같은 행세를 하는 수가 있다. 작은 자극에도 쉽게 흥분하고 화를 잘 내나 작은 기쁨에 지나치게 반응하는 변덕스러운 성격의 소유자이다. 논리적인 것보다는 감정적으로 일을 처리하고 대인관계에서 상대방의 의사를 자기 환상에 따라 멋대로 해석한다. 불만스러운 일이 있으면 자살한다고 위협하거나 자살의 연극을 꾸며서 상대방을 조정한다. 표면적으로는 감정이 풍부하고 매력적이고 사귀기 쉽지만 대인관계에서 지속성이 없고 쉽게 사귀었다가 쉽게 헤어지고 교제하는 사람은 많으나 상대가 자주 바뀐다. 한번 사귀게 되면 상대방의 의사는 아랑곳하지 않고 자기 요구만 들어주기를 바라는 이기적인 사람이고 그것이 충족되지 못하면 곧 실망하고 그 사람을 원망한다. 성적 적응력도 희박하여 성적으로 매력이 있어 보이고 애교가 있고 성적 분위기를 물씬 풍기지만 불감증인 경우가 많다. 이성관계를 낭만적인 환상으로 끌고 가려고 한다. |
