Slowly but steadily I have become a drama queen. I only became aware of it because it has started to have a negative effect on my romantic relationship and in other areas of my life. In my case, there's a combination of factors: boredom, need to get attention and constantly over thinking of the worst possible scenarios. I am now looking for a change in my life; it seems like a steep hill in front of me, but I do really need to change these patterns if I want to be happy. Thanks also to Blue Lace for the final comment, it truly is empowering what you discovered. Thanks Hi,

Fri, 13 Aug 2010 08:26:59 +0000 http://goodlifezen.com/?p=3960#comment-8636 I have a 9 year old who rants and raves about everything. If she hears a noise at night, gets a small cut, sees blood, has to go to bed, take a shower, clean her room; just to mention a few... It is very tiresome and annoying to me, I see the classic symptoms of a drama queen in her but now how do I stop this before I run out on my family???? I seriously have way too many medical issues to deal with for myself to have to deal with all the other drama that doesn't need to be there... PLEASE if anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it!!!!!! On the other note I did love the article, it summed up alot of her reactions... Thank You!!

I totally agree with the article and yet, having been there myself, not withstanding a medical condition, I felt an immediate need to comment. I believe all drama queens, from my own experience, have an underlying condition, as you describe, and in the majority of instances, need compassion, and to be shown coping strategies and given more support to rise about the drama. I was unaware until relatively recently that I, and my story, were not the same. When I did realise this, it was an empowering discovery and leads to constant change.
