Hysterical disorders
The outcome for hysterical disorders varies by type. Somatization is
typically a lifelong disorder, while conversion disorder may last
for months or years. Symptoms of hysterical disorders may suddenly
disappear, only to reappear in another form later.
Histrionic personality disorder
Individuals with histrionic personality disorder may be at a higher
risk for suicidal gestures, attempts, or threats in an effort to
gain attention. Providing a supportive environment for patients with
both hysterical disorders and histrionic personality disorder is key
to helping these patients. |
