The most salient psychological characteristics of histrionic personalities, as well as the intricacies of their behaviour and thought in the condition of social normalcy, are discussed in this work. Histrionic personalities, like everyone else, aspire to be respected by others, achieve financial success, and get social recognition. The study focuses on the histrionic personality who aspires to power and has leadership characteristics. Psychological defence mechanisms, excessive suppression, typical motivations, self-esteem, and goals of histrionic personalities, as well as peculiarities of their conscience, memory, and behaviour in intrapsychic and interpersonal conflicts, are all detailed. In psychotherapy and everyday life, the author proposes the most acceptable approaches to connect with these types of exaggerated personalities.
