In life you will meet people who seem to just love the drama. They gravitate towards it, they embrace it, they seem to generate it if its not present. The idea is that it needs to always be there somehow. You ask yourself, Why? The answer is always the same.
Most of the people that love drama, don’t do so because it gives them joy. They obviously suffer through the situations they attract or even create. To attempt to rationalise it, is almost impossible and I know a few that suffer in the attempt to do so. So what could be reason? Why would someone need drama in their life? Could it be a misdirected attempt to be relevant?
Misguided Purposes
I happen to believe this is the case, at least most of the time it is. If there is no problem, if there is no issue that needs to be resolved, there is no purpose to the dramatic’s existence. That sounds a little harsh, but I happen to think that there will be those who will agree with this observation.
If there is an issue, they are needed. If there is no issue they are not. The solution is simple, let's create some issues.
I say this with the understanding that most of this behavior comes from an unconscious place, from people who are not aware they are attempting to be relevant via the wrong means. Truthfully if they would know they are acting this way, if it was presented to them efficiently, they might even stop, but the word efficiently is hard to attain.
So what do we do? What can we do? Maybe nothing, maybe the trick is to learn to recognize these semi destructive patterns and learn to ignore them. After all, who needs drama?
Greetings, Great Chbartist
Really man, dramatic people (considered histrionic within psychology) are very fond of drawing attention to themselves. They don't do that on purpose, it's something that's ingrained in their personalities. They don't understand how inconvenient they are.
This personality is shaped in childhood when it does not receive attention from the parents. Learn that to receive attention, it is necessary to shout, Esperneie, make a drama, as you said, just so, gets the person to take it....
This is complicated because, the more they try to draw attention, the less attention they receive, because no one can hold a profile so long...
Thank you for posting and good night!!!
What if the drama at the heart of a weakened for use to ask for help or I'm sorry.
A very useful post @chbartist.
Drama! The photograph you used here describes it perfectly because the people who love drama are mostly the persons who love acting and to act for a small pieces of life but yes they do it for their self satisfaction and not for some Tv serial etc. The most important thing is if anyone want to create drama of anything, you just have to ignore or avoid them because this is where they got attention and when they got it they will be motivated to do more next time.
So the main message of your article is "To avoid and ignore such persons".
A useful article.
drama in real life is usually done by people who cover up from their mistakes. usually they will play drama as if the act is not those who do it, but the drama in the film is usually done by a professional person with the aim of entertaining the audience. so basically I think the drama is sometimes needed but not good to do.
thanks @chbartist has given you insight, good luck
So, in essence, you are saying they don't actually know they have the problem. It could be true though.
much needed learning process. from that post we gain a very useful knowledge. thanks @chbartist
El drama muchas veces es manipulación de algunas personas para conseguir algún propósito, buen post, chbartist. Saludos.
drama that is very touching feeling.I am comforted by your beautiful drama. Thanks
We meet dramatic people in every field. I think they do it for drawing attention to themselves. You are right we can avoid and ignore such person
I think if we present through drama series on TV is not wrong. of the spectacle sometimes cultivate talent in positive terms. whose fault is when in reality he did the same thing with the drama he was watching. but in my opinion, all what he did was not what he thought. more unfortunately again they are involved into sinetron victims, that is very unfortunate. then do something positive.
Excellent post!
