HYSTERICAL PERSONALITY DISORDER is no longer a part of the DSM, but it was in the 60s. From DSM-II: 301.5 Hysterical personality (Histrionic personality disorder): These behavior patterns are characterized by excitability, emotional instability, over-reactivity, and self-dramatization. This self-dramatization is always attention-seeking and often seductive, whether or not the patient is aware of its purpose. These personalities are also immature, self-centered, often vain, and usually dependent on others. This disorder must be differentiated from Hysterical Neurosis
The accompanying case summary:
This is a married 27 year old woman. Notice how she usually averts her gaze downward, and her affected attitude in smoking. She has an air of indifference, yet there is a provocative manner about her. Her dress is casual, her hair is well coiffeured, and she frequently makes veiled comments in interview and tries to lead the therapist down the garden path.
This lady demonstrates a personality disorder which is characterized as a hysterical personality. This is evidenced in the interview by her manipulative manner, and her attempts to control the interview by saying such things as ‘now you talk’ or ‘you’ll have to get me started’. As well as by her somewhat dramatic and suggestive statements about what her father did to her, although there is nothing in the history to indicate this. Her attitude toward the interviewer has a seductive, controlling quality. Again, this person manifests a hysterical personality disorder
1960: Hysterical personality disorder
2020: Rape, PTSD
1969
Hysterical: “deriving from or affected by uncontrolled extreme emotion”.
@@organicthug5220 I keep seeing your comment... do you seriously feel like that description fits this video?
@@organicthug5220 The origin of the word hysteria. First known usage in the 1600's. Specifically related to the uterus. A defect in women, specifically and connected to having a uterus. Sexist...misogynisitic? Uhh... just a bit. hysterical (adj.)
1610s, "characteristic of hysteria," the nervous disease originally defined as a neurotic condition peculiar to women and thought to be caused by a dysfunction of the uterus; literally "of the womb," from Latin hystericus "of the womb," from Greek hysterikos "of the womb, suffering in the womb," from hystera "womb," from PIE *udtero-, variant of *udero- "abdomen, womb, stomach"
Perfectly said
"provocative, hysterical, manipulative, dramatic, suggestive, seductive, controlling" These adjectives do not describe the woman interviewed but the prejudice of the male establishment.
You haven't encountered a histrionic before. And you are very lucky to be able to assume that this is all just a sham. It means you have had a blessed experience.
Great another armchair expert.you watch a six minute video and now you know all about this woman ?
Typical of that time frame, sad.to say.
@@TylerDurden-oy2hm @Brian Jones
+1. Apparently there's a lot of sheltered SJWs watching this. Nobody's denying that prejudice MAY have played a role in her story, perhaps even a big role, but to act like we KNOW that from a tiny 6 minute glimpse into her life just makes you sound incredibly foolish. Fact of the matter is we'll probably never know and spouting 'misogyny' 60 years later isn't going to change what really happened. Only God knows peoples hearts at the end of the day.
wtf. i fuсking hate this comment section. if she's trying to hold herself on camera it doesn't mean she's like this in real life. what is wrong with you people? are you living in a happyland where nobody's lying and you don't need to question people at all or what?
it wasn't without reason that she got to a session with a psychotherapist in dark 1960s. this therapist knows her for much longer than you, and he knows what he's doing. how do you know, maybe she murdеrеd her newborn or drove someone who loved her to suiсide? you don't, you're just assuming, because you're biased and you think that traumatized woman = practically saint and that's why she can do whatever she wants because of her trauma and never face consequences of her actions, which is wrong on so many levels that i don't even know where to begin. open up your eyes, you're trying to protect an abuser right now. male, female - it doesn't matter, every abuser has a traumatic experience, but it's never an excuse. once you're an adult, it's your responsibility how your life is going to turn, and if you chose to be an аsshоle it's only your problem and YOU have to fix yourself, and the first step is to admit that you're an аsshоle, because this type of people always think that they did nothing wrong, it's always anybody else's fault but theirs. best regards, i wish you less faith in people.
In the description it says that she’s acting seductively. She absolutely is not. She looks closed off emotionally (with good reason) and sad. It broke my heart to hear her say that she just wants to love everybody. That told me that her mother, the doctor and her husband are trying to isolate her from the others. It’s not uncommon for adult survivors of sexual abuse to attract people who are controlling and the abused individual often has little ability to set healthy boundaries. How could they when no respectful boundaries have been modeled and honored by those they should have been able to trust. This interview is going to haunt me for a long time.
She literally married a man she hates and has cheated and continues and actively seeks sexual relations out of doctors. Did you even bother to watch the video Karen? I feel nothing for those who claim to be a "victim" yet victimizes those around them with the same treatment they dislike. Hopefully this interview haunts your evil for the rest of eternity and your want to hate men. It's bad women like you who have misled and destroyed our moral values in this country.
If the psychiatrist thought she was being seductive, he's a pervert.
I agree. And the description only makes it worse. It's scary to think that such "professionals" work in this field
Yeah if you have been abused as a child there are simply legions of people ready to help!
I’m wondering if that’s what her abuser said.
I pray she found some peace and comfort. She's not mentally ill. She's damaged because of the actions of a trusted adult.
It's an exceptional mental illness to seek sexual relations with those you're lying about seeking help from. I hope you seek help for your delusions as well, best of luck.
She's not mentally ill.
@@itr1794 initially she was not but overtime it did.
It is so misogynistic to call her “hysterical”. This is a woman who was sexually abused as a little girl and incredibly anxious and mistrusting of people and rightly so.
calm down, we all know that, this was the 60´s, its not now-a-days... get over it...
Jesus Christ your putting your woke 2020 values on an interview from the 60s.
It’s not that she is not a victim, she is. But her personality is cemented as-of that abusive world. Her brain’s circuitry was not developed to respond to healthy stimulation, but to dysfunction. Thus, abuse feels good as far as her brain waves go. Like, she is addicted to harmful drugs.
@@mshat18 You just disqualified yourself using the word "woke". Gammon.
Tell me where I’m wrong. You can’t place your modern liberal sensibilities on an interview from 50 years ago. If you do then your a moron.
The amount of self awareness is astounding. She's highly intelligent.
Jeff Z even intelligent people can have mental issues
...and you know this is "self awareness" and not psychopathy how? You're aware that there are people with the ability to lie and manipulate anyone, yes? If I wanted to influence a man by gaining his sympathy, and I was a woman. . . what would you figure a good lie would be to sway him? You're judging this woman by her appearance. She has fully manipulated you, which was precisely the purpose of this video in 1969. To teach professionals how to spot this abhorrent behavior.
@@hollisdillon3594 I think that's the norm, rather than the exception.
@@austntexan Initially, I though your and few others' comments were harsh and unnecessary. But, then I read the video description, read again all of yours' comments, followed by attentive listening and observing. And, I must say, you guys are right. The signs are there, just so discreet to the untrained observer. A quick glance at the doctors' direction when he said she did well, along with a tiny smile was the most obvious one to me.
However, anytime, man or a woman speaks about abuse as a child, I never doubt it.
Are you stupid or what ?
This woman had the strength and courage to speak her mind, and the men in her life could not stand that about her. She’s smart, articulate and quite elegant. I hope that she found the happiness in life that she deserved.
There was no history of abuse, you are being suckered by her and don't understand what the video is about.
Please. People love telling children they only imagine being abused because it takes the heat or guilt away from themselves! No history or no evidence of history? Two very different things and lots of abuse happens without the capture of evidence. LOTS.
@@wendythomas9361 omg, read the comments of the video please. Then go watch the other videos in the series. They are describing particular mental disorders. So you know better than the people who interviewed her over and over, who are showing us very typical signs of this behaviour? Yes, it is possible that people make up abuse, and it is very obvious here. Imagine what it does to the people who she accuses? That is horrible. Just because someone mentions abuse does not mean they are always telling the truth, it is people like you with blind faith in a 'victim' which causes a lot of problems the world. The stupidity and/or devotion to victimhood without logic or reasoning is just... jeez.
@@kameliamaldonado7569 I prefer the truth over fiction. You seem to have jumped to conclusions from a 5 minute video where the purpose is to demonstrate exactly the opposite of what you have gleened. That is your truth.
@@robritoboyLook for a victim there is a lot of shame/fear when coming forward to tell the story. When they go to the police they will do their job and find whenever is true or false, they will most likely not bring support to them. So I prefer to just support the victim, who in most cases, is a real victim. Yeah every kind of scenario exists and there will be cases where it may be false and the conclusion for the supposedly abuser will be bad no matter what, but that does not happen a lot. Either way, I recommend Unbelievable on Netflix
Labeled crazy in an era where any woman overcome by deep trauma was deemed hysterical. And it still persists now.
You might be a little a lot crazy if you can even remotely think that not only is it okay to marry a man you hate but, to cheat on him and seek sexual relations with the doctors you're lying about seeking help from.
Amen. It’s tragic.
Thank you for saying this. I was born during this era and women were always considered hysterical when they weren't 100% "normal" according to what society thought women should be - which was submissive, compliant, happy as a homemaker or teacher, and quiet. Hysterectomy comes from the word hysteria. PMS was non-existent as a thing, it was just that she was being hysterical. The most incredibly frustrating and hostile time for women. Doctor's just prescribed "Mother's Little Helpers" to calm them down. Then the women had pills and alcohol to subvert the pain. This was really part of why the Women's Lib movement began - it was a backlash against all the forms of control women were under.
if you read the description she's making this up to manipullate people. worked on most viewers! none of the things you said is tru or was true back then
@@edl6398 no it does not. hysterectomy comes from "hyster"=uterus. the meaning is quite lietral. and all the other "facts" you said are also wrong and a lie.
The description is so disgusting. The therapists writes that she has a "seductive" quality after saying there's no evidence of her father inappropriately touching her. He thinks she's seducing him! There's absolutely nothing sexy or flirtatious in this interview. This poor woman.
First name Last name it’s also in the description, who made it and why
@First name Last name You realise this youtube channel is the only reason you are able to see this right? But more imporantly, if you read the description, it's clear these are not opinions shared by the owner of this channel and is merely a quote from the therapists report.
@First name Last name the one who wrote is obviously dead and too old to make youtube videos and post it here. Dont blame the one who posted it
You have to study psychiatry, psychology or psychoanalysis to understand why these words are used.
@@douglasdoo Yeah, the trained therapist is enticed by a woman. How dare she ?
He knows this is wrong and that he should not be seduced. He feels an attraction and crosses his legs to hide it.
It cannot be.
She must be a witch ! Bring the scales and the duck !
She is NOT hysterical. She is actually a well spoken woman with an abusive background.
You think hysterical people are hysterical 24/7? They can have a normal calm talk lol
It is possible to overcome abusive situations. Step 1 is Leave.
Why? Because she's pretty and she said so? Buddy. You have a lot to learn about women in general. This woman is clearly manipulating the interviewer. The ending is downright creepy. Read the notes, the purpose of the video is to teach how to spot this sort of behavior. These comments are hilarious. People are 100% convinced she's a victim of abuse, rather than simply a talented liar. I sincerely hope none of you maroons are in the mental health profession.
@wobbly nostrils she actually did seem seductive
@@yoboi13 exactly ,she is pure histrionic,they are truly devils,I am SHOCKED people are liking her in the comments,she manages to fool people nicely
Абсолютно адекватная и здоровая девушка🤷♂️, анализирует свою жизнь и пытается принять всё то дерьмо, которое произошло с ней... Раньше это видимо считалось истеричным 😒
Это обычный невроз, миллионы таких. Это норма по нынешним временам. У нее нет истерического расстройства личности, то совсем другое.
И сперматоксикозный мужло перед ней как всегда думает только передком и считает, что она его соьлпзняет, хотя она на него даже не взглянула. Типичное животное поведение
Неправильно поставленный диагноз , она пережила глубокую травму в детстве
Несчастный ребёнок, угораздило же родиться в семейке извращенцев
Может неправильный перевод?
This woman is more wise than the man “treating” her.
So incredibly self aware and intelligent. An eloquent and courageous young woman. God bless her and her family.
🙏🖤✌️
This woman breaks my heart. She seems so soulful, intelligent and well-spoken. She is swimming with sharks. I hope she managed to have a good life.
Read the description
@@odanemcdonald9874 what about it?
If she escaped from that so called doctors, that demons, she would be ok.
@@fighterflight I think Odane McDonald is trying to say that the description says she’s manipulative and the story of her abuse might not even be true since it’s not in her history. The woman is charming, intelligent, and beautiful but she is also manipulative... much like you would observe a psychopath interview and look for those traits. People are very convincing. This woman is very convincing.
@@jenli142 or maybe back in the day men didn't believe women were abused without them "wanting" it
Back when a woman being raped as a child was a personality defect...
How do you think personality defects start? Not because something good happens.
What do you mean by back and was?
Post traumatic stress disorder was not discovered yet.
Pretty sure she’s making it up. You can tell by her sly little smile at the end when the dr “agrees” with her. She knows he believed her story.
Well, she thinks he does.
Buck Bundy How sad that this woman is still being told she’s lying by men (only this time by a random dude with a hunch not a medical professional) 60 years later.
Why did he not ask her as the first question: "Why does the quietness scare you?"
Honestly? I think it’s because he’s bewitched by her and likes to listen to her talk/ruminate in a way completely inappropriate for a doctor.
@@ChatMort69420 nah. Besides her illness, she's average for her time
I think he was trying to assess her behavior in general. I too don’t like when they’re quite, you go in to talk, its not a date! 🤣 I had a therapist where it was like talking to a wall! So I changed her for someone else.
Excellent point. Your comment should have more likes
Yep.
I think today she would probably be diagnosed with BPD because it often starts with sexual abuse as a child. It's crazy to hear her describe her symptoms so eloquently and precisely and the doctor seems to just be sitting there as if he's learning from her.
Correct its the same bullshit different diagnosis. Pedophles eneberler drs
I agree with that but I also believe that BPD is not a real disorder. It's just trauma. Instead of labelling people with a personality disorder we should we working to help them heal from their trauma.
hysteria, histrionic personality disorder, and sleeping - anorexia' nervosa.
No, she would be diagnosed with histrionic personality disorder which still exists, just as she was diagnosed back then as a histrionic
I get the sense that the diagnosis of histrionic personality disorder is not very common anymore.@@Arginne
She is not crazy. She was abused an no one helped her. God bless her soul.
Angela Fender if omnipresent,,your god would have been responsible,! 🤔👩🦳
This seems to be a theme on all these interviews... the vast majority are totally normal.
Most people who have personality disorders were abused. People with PDs are not crazy, however, they can have highly destructive anti-social patterns, but it's like a they can't help themselves situation.
This is exactly why we should stop calling mental disorders "being crazy". An abusive childhood is one of the main reasons for mental illness. And this is exactly how people with disorders look like... "normal". Because it is actually "normal", to have some type of trauma.
Putting the weight and stigma of the word crazy on someone is what stops them from seeking professional help.
Exactly , like the majority of broken people, they have been abused and harassed , just like a GANGSTALKING victim.
Imagine calling someone who was literally sexually abused as a child hysterical smh.
What she has is not hystery, it's Histrionic personality disorder. It's an illness that affect both men and women. Women are diagnosed with HPD roughly 4 times as often as men. It is defined by the American Psychiatric Association as a personality disorder characterized by a pattern of excessive attention-seeking behaviors, usually beginning in early childhood, including inappropriate seduction and an excessive desire for approval. People diagnosed with the disorder are said to be lively, dramatic, vivacious, enthusiastic, and flirtatious.
One of the symptoms is Exhibitionist behavior.
Maybe you think that getting naked in front of everybody is appropriate.
yeah, I know, smh x 2
@@theplayer2319 Honestly, I could not see any of that in this woman. What I saw were attachement issues but nothing seductive in her behavior or story.
It. Is. A. Personality. Disorder. Not. A. Description. Of. Behavior.
It’s a legit medical term.
It's extremely common for people who've been abused "regress" to the age of their trauma
No it's not. I was sexually abused at 4. I don't act like a 4 year old
@@maggie0285 not the literal behavior in so much as emotional development. Regress into the fear/doubt/instability etc that those years imprint on us.
@@maggie0285 it refers to the psicologycal development
@@maggie0285Меня изнасиловали в лагере, я выросла. Работаю над эмоциями.
S^xual abuse can cause hypers^xuality as a trauma symptom. I know very little of her case, history and symptom presentation, but if she was abused in that way, it's actually extremely common for patients to present with that symptom, and I wonder if they didn't realize that back then like they do now and labelled her with histrionic personality disorder because she mentioned something along the lines of hypers^xuality. Very interesting. I'm always glad to see self-awareness among patients, since the first step in solving a problem is admitting there is one. Already leagues ahead those who don't admit there are problems with their mental health and then go on to hurt others due to their maladaptive coping mechanisms.
How much eye contact do they expect when a woman is reliving her traumatic past.
There’s been a lot of things learned since this video
True that I physically can't make eye contact for more than 5 seconds or I'll have a panic attack even if I'm just talking to my family or friends
Exactly! As we now know that when people look to the side, or sometimes even like their eyes are looking up, towards their head because their seeing, and recalling the past. That's how you can tell if someone is lying, they won't be busy "looking through their files" she's being genuine if anything. I see nothing "hysterical" about this.
She is still very frightened. I think that is the reason she is not making eye contact, poor soul.
@@suicidaltweek322 me too
Hysterical? More like introspective and deep. Sweet woman. Horrible abuse.
Hysterical: “deriving from or affected by uncontrolled extreme emotion”.
@@organicthug5220 r u crazy or something???? If any person goes through what she went through its normal to feel the way this woman feels!! Dnt explain the definition. We do have a dictionary and Google in case.
Read the description
are you trying to romanticise her disorders ??? Nobody is denying that she is "introspective and deep. Sweet woman." ... but she still has a disorder anyway, what would you call the disorder all those abuses have done to her then??? please enlighten us, since you know better
@@gargeesharma2630 read the description. There's no history of abuse. It's dramatization and self centred centred seductive behaviour. Again all in the description
" i just get scared when it gets quiet "
I know this feeling,shit always happen when things gets quiet.i can hear those insults and bad words.
Theres nothing more traumatized me rather than quiet situation,just uncomfortable.i always use earphone everytime its getting quiet,and now i still working on this trauma,try to face my fear.just hope this gets well
I hope and pray you will come to have peace and strength in quiet times. To be still and quiet requires strength and faith. I hope all the best for you. ❤️
Sending you hugs and hope you get better! 💙
Ich bin ziemlich beeindruckt von ihrer Reflektiertheit, ihrer Courage, eine Therapie zu machen und ihrer präzisen und angenehmen Sprache. Und ich kann hier nicht erkennen, wo sie hysterisch / histrionisch sein soll. Ich finde die korrigierenden Kommentare hier übrigens wirklich sehr erfreulich.
She's been misdiagnosed. She's a victim of sexual abuse, where the mother did nothing. My heart goes out to her. I understand.
I'm not sure how any of us could know whether she was or wasn't. Her disease caused her to make things up. I'm guessing the doctor would have checked out those statements pretty thoroughly and would certainly know more about her than we do.
Read the description. It's more likely she made that up on the fly.
@@rhondadaisy4342 I doubt it. I've been there.
@@rhondadaisy4342 Doubt it. The description accompanied the case study back then and it’s a bad one. There is no evidence to back what they say and they accuse her of seducing them. That is clearly their own bias coming through. Many women back then were diagnosed like this due to the misconception that all women who show their struggles are hysterical.
well to me it seems believable she has a disorder in result from her tramatic experience and histrionic disorder is real its not like in your face someone has it though its kinda like someone with minor depression you really dont know a lot of the time that someone has it they just do
There’s no hysteria here. Just a seriously broken and abused woman, but very well spoken, and seemingly alert to her problems
Exactly what I thought.
Shrink is off
Did you read the video description?
@@Robin_Coffins they never read... they know everything!! ;)
Err. 1960...
My dad physically and emotionally abused me. When my mom wasn’t there. I have a memory of something bad but it’s a flash, I think I suppressed it. I told my mom. She said I was delusional. Haven’t spoken to them for years
Plz meet a therapist
That moment when you realize the crazy people from the 50's-60's were well adjusted individuals compared to modern society. . .
This is a tragedy. She’s not hysterical. She was abused. She actually seems quite well spoken and thoughtful.
EXACTLY!!💯
That’s not what it means
Poor woman, abused and then labelled a problem. 🧚♂️
Yea. You may be thinking of a hysterical person. Hysterical personality disorder is different. However, it can definitely be caused by abuse, neglect, etc
EXACTLY!!!! I think her psychiatrist is glossing over the whole sexual abuse issue. Wtf is up with him?
If a man is angry or distressed, he is angry or distressed. If a woman is angry or distressed she is hysterical. Makes me hysterical every time I hear the word!
There are a couple long threads arguing this same thing above. Read the description. It explains that at that time the term didn't mean being hysterical.
Did you know the root word for hyster in Greek is uterus? Misogyny’s been around for millennia.
@@nanabusterd yes indeed, because Plato thought the uterus wandered around in the body and that women were a deformed version of men. As you say, the roots of misogyny go way back!
Great point. Also if a man is angry and distressed he could snap and does mass shootings, when a woman is angry and depressed she's overly emotional. And needs to calm down. Tell mass shooters to calm tf down.
@@crisj7704 some men when angry withdraw. My husband for instance. When I'm angry i yell. So not all men grab guns and mass shoot. Js
She is very intelligent with profound insight.
This woman has swag. I seemed like I was watching an old movie.
Any woman who had an opinion in those days was labeled hysterical
Now it’s the same but they call it BPD.
If the shoe fits.
@@blinkypushbuttons that's not what bpd is, educate yourself

2:52 -- "so I come in here. I thought well, I'll just get rested up, get my nerves straight, and then I'll go home and get a divorce."
Surrounded by blindly oblivious people, the only sane sensible person in a group is likely to be considered "ill".
A tremendously strong caring sincere woman. Trying to get help, some safety and some aware conscious helpful attention, to "control" someone into being helpful, all this was apparently considered an illness of being excessively "a person".
In the old-fashioned DSM-II of the 1960's.
Probably should have just gone camping in a beautiful natural environment, surrounded by thriving life, for a month of comforting leisurely relaxation, some breathing room, restoration, and inspiration. Sometimes a person needs comforting. Bring some art projects and have a beautiful contemplative time. *_Genuinely comforting environments._*
4:06 -- "Well, he's just a hardworking person. And when someone makes love to me now, I want them to be affectionate and consoling. Not just to want to have a sexual intercourse. And I have never had that."
She seems the only warm sane sensible considerate person in town. In the most wonderful way, not very obedient.
She is wonderful ❤️ this interview is such an eye opener. Heartbreaking but so wonderful to recognize this poor woman's pain.
She is describing perfectly the disconnect that occurs in relationships in a person who was sexually abused as a child.
Totalmente por ello tampoco hace conexion con el doctor ,no mira a los ojos.
POR QUÉ ES "DESCONEXIÓN"?...
She was raped. Went through a lot of phisical and psychological pain, and still people want to hurt her more by branding her by histeric personality, basically Stating that her uterus is the problem in her head. Misoginy at it’s worst.
Histeria é um nome que ETMOLOGICAMENTE se refere ao útero. O doutor em psiquiatria é mestre da ciência de classificar a dor da existência como doença mental, excluindo uma tonelada de pessoas de ser aceita como igual e sendo encaradas como Outros, fora da curva. Sinto muito se você prefere validar a voz de quem trabalha para separar as pessoas e, nesse caso, reforçar o sofrimento de uma mulher, que já é julgada pela sua biologia, através de desmerecer seu sofrimento chamando-a de histérica. O problema com a mente dela é o útero? Psiquiatras deviam estudar mais, tentar ser mais humanos, e você também. Abraço
Matheus Mendes: misoginia em seu segundo melhor
Matheus Mendes: você é o melhor aluno da psiquiatria misógina. Parabéns. Agora você pode oprimir cientificamente embasado.

Read the description
I think that she has every right to be ticked off, not just hysterical but FURIOUS !
I absolutely loved when she finally looked up & said "Well you read my mind." in that amazing accent of hers.
This woman wasnt "hysterical"
She was hurt and damaged.
Highly intelligent and reasonable.
did you even fucking look at the description
You knew her personally? Because how can you figure her out from 6 mins in front of a camera? 🤣
I totally agree with you 💯
Mental Health has changed so much through the years. Today, she would just need counselling.
We don't know what went on.
The title is "Hysterical personality", not "a hysterical person". This is for a viewer to understand that they will see an interview with a person who represents some of the attributes which belong under the "hysterical personality category". As perfectly explained in the description above. And yes, indeed, it might be misleading to try to estimate the broad scale of human behaviour from only 6 minutes display in an controlled environment where the lady is on guard.
She talks eloquently and gracefully. She looks more normal than most of us today...
😂true
genius and being psychotic goes hand in hand
That is the danger of this disorder just like with narcissists. She appears to be nice but much of it is staged to achieve control.
🤣🤣🤣🤣omg the accuracy!
@@LianExfeind exactly. Histrionics are considered now a form of psychopathy. BTW back then and earlier woman like her(more skillfull/seductive cases) were called "femme fatale" - most likely psychopaths/histrionics; sometimes borderlines. Narcissists were and are falling for them like crazy
This is one of what hysterical personality’s psychodynamic formation is . Very nice interview !
You can listen to her for 5 secs and know that she isnt crazy. She is just a beautiful soul that has been broken. Her voice is so soulful. I really hope she found peace. And those that hurt her are buried under a prison
You were George Jetson’s boss!
if you speak to most people in a psych ward they won't seem crazy... Talking from my own experience there. I probably didn't seem "crazy" either, but I was one of the patients, and I needed psychiatric help.
When I stayed there, there were only 2-3 patients that looked according to what you would imagine a crazy person looks like. The truth is, terribly mentally ill people frequently look like anyone else.
Unfortunately, psychiatric facilities didn't change much. Sure, we don't have shock therapy and lobotomies, but those seemingly normal patients still can be medicated against their will; and life in a ward itself is very isolating and restricting. I couldn't see my friends, I couldn't use restroom without asking someone to unlock it first, they took away my art supplies before I entered (what if I stab my eye out with a pencil?), couldn't even express my emotions without being judged... The attitude didn't change much since Ken Kesey. Perhaps it's in psych wards where mentally ill people start too look crazy; 2 of those 3 patients were the once who stayed there the longest.
@@humanbutterfly8583 Thank you for bringing that up! People seem to think that when people get to the stage where they are hospitalized, they are acting 'crazy'. This just isn't true, some have a psychotic break but most just need intense therapy, experimenting with what drugs or drug combos help the person and removal from outside stressors so that concentration can be solely on the patient without them worrying about their kids, parents, hubby/wife etc. I hope you were able to get the help you need and you are now on a good path that will lead you to fulfillment and strong mental health.

They're INGRATES .
No men on Earth have honored , protected and elevated women as much as American men have .
They don't have any idea how good they have it.
Heartbreaking what some people have had to live through.
Watching this video is so heartbreaking, I can't believe how all of them treated her, including the doctors; truly horrific! May God bless and keep her.
This was the time back then. Women were called hysterical for almost no reason, other than being honest and talking about their feelings.
That's not fair. Women and men's brains operate quite differently. Yes, I will give you some women are irrational, but you could say the same for some men. Making a broad generality is irrational in and of itself.
Megan Henry I didn’t advocate the beliefs back then. I just said any woman who was like this they called unstable. Stop being super sensitive. 🤦♀️
@Cobb Knobbler so you think a man raping a child isn't irrational? Please
Cobb Knobbler obvious troll is being a bit too obvious
Michael C 😝 agreed! ✌️
There is nothing wrong with this woman
She is simply explaining how she feels
Shes so rational and mature. Even after everything shes been through. Yet she never got the help she needed....the therapist was useless.
There is nothing wrong with her however she is struggling with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and as a result has attachment and relationship issues and also probably struggles with flashbacks, intrusive thoughts etc..
@@altinjpn Ya we know that
@@altinjpn Yep.
It's awesome.
Trust me.
Due to constant sexual abuse, affection towards others translates into sexual desire. As she explained, this happens to her regardless of whether it is with her husband, her mother-in-law or her doctor. She is not capable of a healthy affective exchange, since she only knows excitement or hate. That is why it is classified with the word hysteria (vulgarly she would be called a whore). Although this classification is no longer used, and other scientific terms are used, it does not change the fact that it is a mental pathology, and that it must be treated from its origin, which is obviously her constant sexual abuse as a child
Incredible video,,very very thoughtful,thought provoking.👍💯👍
These kind of videos and these people in general just shatter my heart and soul I feel so sorry for her but her voice is so touching.
Ever stop and think that humans put the guidelines on what’s “crazy”... just because people aren’t like everyone else doesn’t necessarily mean they are “crazy”.
Yessss
The definition of disease, mentally or otherwise, includes suffering or harming others.
Probably the sanest of us all in reality
Some pplz are called crazy because they’re different. Maybe they’re not crazy, maybe their environment is a little sick (as Dave Chappelle said)
It's a disorder when it impairs the patient's ability to function in life. "Crazy" is subjective, it isn't a diagnosis.
She is so smart. She knows what she needs. She is making the diagnosis herself. Be helpful if she had some validation.
...right at the beginning one minute in, she describes her father being drunk and molesting her, on many occasions, how she would cry to never be left alone with her father. She is not insane, she has a huge trauma. I hope someone really just addresses the trauma of her parent molesting her. And someone tells her it is not her fault, and gives her permission to have her feelings,.. when appropriate.
this brought tears to my eyes it hurts me knowing someone could be so careless with their child
>woman talks about her husband and traumas
>quack: is this seduction?

@@odanemcdonald9874 dude you’re not the only person who knows how to “read the description” give it a rest. they obviously did read the description, the word _seductive_ is not mentioned in the video, genius
@@odanemcdonald9874 ugh, another generic guy
They said the that she has no history of getting rape and she just made it up. Of course, I have no idea which one is correct in this case.
The sad thing is they’ll probably drug her into insanity, or by not acknowledging her abuse. She’s a beautiful self aware woman, it’s a shame.
one would hope. mother's little helper. this little liar is throwing up more red flags than a Chinese military parade. That very fact that comment on her physical appearance is proof that you've objectified her and based your opinion solely on your inherent bias, nothing more. There is nothing here that would suggest anything she is saying is true. In fact, in the notes it clearly states that abuse was ruled out. . . but I'd wager you'd argue based on feelings, rather than any facts.
bauhaus I enjoyed your comment and agree with you. Her looks are deceiving. Many will fall for the old trope of beauty equals goodness. If she were bad, she wouldn’t be so beautiful. Sometimes our emotions are difficult to understand and trust. You must be able to look for truth and be open to see how it’s possible that your feelings may not be accurate.This is a good topic to highlight in this video.
@@austntexan ruled out by who?? A man? Hahahahah!
Krazy Katlady you’re not too bright are you?
They’ll “probably” drug her? You realize this is 60 years old and she’s either in her late 80s or dead right?
an important note! the hysterical that refers isn't the stereotyped behavior, it's about a personality disorder. The hysterical personality are similar to the borderline personality disorder.
BPD is just the politically correct way of labeling women hysterical. It never stopped.
Bless her heart. I hope that going forward life treated her more gently🌹
The body language is crushing. By the end of the interview she closes up completely, while saying she wants to become better. I think shes trying to lead with her truth but is well aware the people around her that are supposed to help her simply will not see her perspective.
In another age, she wouldve been so much more free and not feeling like she needs approval of a therapist that just labeled her "hysteric".
I hope you rest easy, ghost lady
There was no history of abuse, you are being suckered by her and don't understand what the video is about.
@@robritoboy
Your moniker says it all.. get therapy yourself.
@@franco2b145 haha, good to see you have the intellectual capacity to argue your point. The description clearly states there is no abuse, but you are so wedded to your first impression (even though gullible) you have to say to the person who is pointing out your gullibility to get therapy. Grow up. Grow up, I don't think a therapist can help you with that.
Unfortunately its still so common and is still happening now
Just break down the word and separate it’s parts.
Therapist = The rapist
calling a woman “hysterical” because she is experiencing trauma is absolutely insane
edit: never knew one comment would spark outrage but I have no knowledge in the field of medicine or psychology and just wanted to comment my view. Whether you agree or disagree that’s up to you though I can see both sides after reading through the comments. Have a great day!
Please read the description next time: "As well as by her somewhat dramatic and suggestive statements about what her father did to her, although there is nothing in the history to indicate this." So basically, her telling this story might have been (and probably was) nothing more than a way to manipulate the emotions of the interviewer. Is there 100% certainty that she wasn't abused? No. Is there 100% certainty that she was abused? Again, no, but it's not indicated in her history. Also, the term "hysterical" used today in everyday language has different connotations than it used to in th 60s in the specific context of mental health diagnosis. I can see many people in the comment section commenting on how poorly the woman was treated at home an by the doctors without proof, I am responding to your comment because it is the most recent one I can see, but to everyone reading this: please be on guard and avoid jumping to conclusions :) Have a great day!

Read the description.She most certainly wasn't abused.That's her imagination.
I am so glad that I didn't have to be a pychiatric patient in the 60s. I sense nothing "seductive" or "over-dramatising" in her manner. She is giving out clues, hoping that the doctor will pick up the trail (sexual abuse). Instead, she is pathologized.
Good old psychiatry. Labeling victims as crazy instead of helping them.

Jicari Hickory Hill haha, “nazi is a leftist term”, definitely dude
@Jicari Hickory Hill and you're being the transphobic jerk.
When Freud began hearing women describe being sexually abused by their fathers instead of dealing with the hornets' nest he had opened, he just closed it up again and labelled it 'fantasy.' That added insult to injury, no only for his own patients, but also for countless other women whose truth has been disbelieved for decades by arrogant psychotherapists. This woman is not unique in being falsely labelled a fantasist. Psychiatry has a lot to answer for.

This woman is a sane as can be. She is aware, intelligent, sensitive, wise and knows exactly what happened to her and what has conspired since. She was a victim of sexual abuse as a child. Bless her heart. I hope she found a happy, safe life.
She seems honestly just very hurt and very angry and that’s so unbelievably understandable for what she’s lived through. She has a right to be angry or “hysterical”. She’s seems just sad and tired of life. I truly understand that.
I'm from the deep south, and to me, she sounds like someone far older than 27. But that's the pain of it, really. Because most women who speak like that are older these days. This thick accent is sadly disappearing with that generation. We still have accents in my younger generation of Southerners, but not like her. It's more than just the physical sound of her voice, but the syntax and phrasing. It's loss breaks my heart. There is nothing on the planet more charming than a proud Southern lady. And this woman here is a true blue Belle. I'll miss them forever when they go.
Her southern accent is so charming. Back then almost everyone looked so elegant and well groomed and almost everyone self-medicated with cigarettes.
I’m from the same area. She sounds a lot like my Mama. She’s a gorgeous lady. Southern women are freaking amazing. She’s so much stronger than anyone gave her credit for. All she wanted was to be loved and respected. That era was brutal for women.
I loved her accent too!
my mum was a young woman in the 60's. she smoked too. not a southerner, boston irish actually.. Not to glorify smoking but Mum was elegant about it, like this woman was. And it probably was her therapy too, my mum's childhood wasn't happy..
You mean texas alike accent?
My Mom was born and raised in South Carolina in 1916, and this woman sounds very much like her. Smoking too.
Seams like everyone around her was just a bad influence. When all she wanted was a normal life.

Her face also beautiful
Her seductive manipulations are working on you. *gasp* What a harlot.
Correct
Looks like "noir movie"
She is such an attractive woman
I admire her honesty. She is not hysterical.
As a mental illness, hysterical personality disorder doesn't mean hysterical as in common usage. It's now called histrionic personality disorder.
Remember it was 1960. Woman didnt work and were expected to be married and raise kids.
She is the opposite of hysterical. She is remarkably lucid, considering how much those closest to her abused her...in the worst ways. It makes me mad and sick to my stomach.
Women's Lives Matter.
Why don't you marry her then?
Kelly Andersen This is Hysterical Personality Disorder (now called HPD,) not hysterical like we commonly use the word. There’s some hints here that she’s a survivor of a suicide attempt.
I wish I could reach out and give her a hug. And her accent, gosh, it's a thing of beauty.
I don’t get ‘hysterical’ from watching an listening to her. I get calm, reflective…
According to the original summary "Her attitude toward the interviewer has a seductive, controlling quality." I didn't really get that impression. It seemed like her body language throughout the interview was closed and defensive. In fact the summary uses many judgements to depict her manner and behavior instead of factual descriptions, such as "affected attitude", "air of indifference","provocative manner", "manipulative manner", "dramatic and suggestive statements", and trying to "lead the therapist down the garden path." Where was she leading him, exactly? I didn't pick up on that.
It’s seems the psychiatrist is blaming her for his sexual attraction to her, which is disgusting.
K Wood that’s true, and unfortunately there are many people that blame women for being “seductive towards them” by wearing a skirt or right clothing etc and they even end up having the right to touch them! and in many countries it’s never the men at fault is always the women and in this case it’s very sad to hear that, when clearly the woman is only talking about her problems and this disgusting pig is getting turned on by that.
Agree
@@clutchcargo5259 Where does it say that she made it up? I saw in the summary that there was nothing about it in the history, but in the 60's a lot of stuff went unreported. I'm not saying she didn't make it up, but it seems like there isn't enough information here to say for sure.
I’m not picking any of that up either. I just think back in these days in times misogyny was way worse sooooo yea ... you know how that works. They labeled this woman who seems to be perfectly fine. Smh
I can understand her on a deep and personal level. She is not hysterical. She's deeply traumatized and probably has a form of PTSD.
Кажется можно абсолютно все назвать шизофренией или истерией.
Absolutely agree!
That's what I think too.
Shut up
Me too.
The term ‘hysterical’ is a term used formerly as a diagnosis. Long since out of use as it was not descriptive or therapeutic.
Reading the entire note above is informative
A lot of people in the comments seem to be misinterpreting the use of the word "hysterical". It's synonymous with histrionic.
Y'all expect someone being abused and not have a trauma or anything? It leaves scars, it's an horrible experience which completely destroys a person.
well said
For real!! All I get from this interview is men trying to understand why a woman is mentally suffering consequences after being sexually abused
Yes, it leaves scars if the trauma was done as a child (in its developmental stages); the brain actually forms scar tissue in areas where it had to process the emotional or physical abuse. Which is why for young people it has the potential to stunt their ability to cope later or PTSD. Trauma they recently learned can be passed through the genes and be hereditary. So when people say, just get over it, many times people who suffered from childhood trauma really do face an obstacle :-( vs someone who hasn't gone through horrific traumas.
@@lara76540 exactly, it’s insane!
@@crisj7704 you’ve said it, it’s totally true and it’s very sad that a lot of people still don’t understand that

Мне настолько её жалко, что я заплакала! Бедная девочка, она просила мать и бабушку защитить её от насильника, но она не получила этой защиты!

People speak eloquently and proper in the U.K. and all over the world. It’s not the phone or TV, it’s america’s disgraceful joke of a public education system.
She was provocative towards the therapist? All I see is an extremely sad woman talking about her experience. She doesn't even look at the guy! Talk about misogyny. 🙄
Plz read the description. It is frm a case study of which we r seeing a small part. According to that hysteria is psychiatry is not defined as we know in common language. Also about the abuse she is talking about has no history to confirm.
The shrink is a predator who found a way to keep women in his control.
@Jazeela Qazi -But back in the 60s, whether she was raped or not was basically a she said/he said. It would be reasonable to assume that society and doctors would believe the man over a woman, especially if he had first spread the idea that she was “hysterical”
@@saidnoone1531 Dude, the description was provided so that we could see how messed up psychiatry was in the sixties. The woman isn't even being seductive. And the report saying there's nothing in her history to indicate she was raped means diddly squat- all that means is that when the shrink asked her parents if she was raped, they said no.
@@saidnoone1531Whoever did that description is a scumbag and has no clue about psychiatry whatsoever.
"hysterical personality"
This girl's just traumatized .
What she has is not hystery, it's Histrionic personality disorder. It's an illness that affect both men and women. Women are diagnosed with HPD roughly 4 times as often as men. It is defined by the American Psychiatric Association as a personality disorder characterized by a pattern of excessive attention-seeking behaviors, usually beginning in early childhood, including inappropriate seduction and an excessive desire for approval. People diagnosed with the disorder are said to be lively, dramatic, vivacious, enthusiastic, and flirtatious.
One of the symptoms is Exhibitionist behavior.
Maybe you think that getting naked in front of everybody is appropriate.
Yeah in the 50 years of medical research after this they realized that
she has a disorder in result of a tramatic experience
wow, times have changed! You would never see a psychiatrist in my hospital today, just meds and lockdown.
She was abused in the worst way as a child and they say she has a personality disorder? ok...... Very scary what they would label totally sane victims of vile abuse.
She is not presenting a provocative demeanor at all. The doctor is projecting his feelings onto her. Creepy old dude.
Ding ding ding ding! You are correct.
you dont know why he's doing that, idiota
S Ward Exactly!
Poor lady, being "evaluated" by an asshole that found her attractive so he blame her for that too
Oh yes. All men are old and creepy
I love hearing her kind of Southern Mississippi accent. It's a shame it's fading, you never hear it anymore. It sounds very smooth and almost regal.

You need to watch the Steady Crafting channel with Da'Crafsman. He's a very special guy. Mississippi.
I hope she eventually enjoyed some peace and happiness in her life. It was so brave of her to seek help at that time in history - she didn’t even realize she was blazing a trail for mental health awareness such as we have today in our society.
The 60s were MUCH saner than today!
This is the world I remember as a little girl. Having to navigate unstable ,unreasonable, adults that just expected conformity to a cold society that always blamed female victims . The hysterical bs was so common
She did not seem like she was trying to seduce the interviewer, and I would love to see how they determined there was no history of abuse from her father. I feel bad for her. The system treated her badly.

@@IzayoiMeiHigu Exactly!
She's very polite and self aware. She's also beautiful, that's why the theripist thinks she's "seducing" him...
@@IzayoiMeiHigu the therapist was obviously projecting. This is a common fallacy that psychologists/psychiatrists make: imposing their own emotions onto the subject. The therapist was subconciously attracted to this lady (i don't blame him, she's conventionally beautiful and dressed well and she has very elegant mannerisms) and his stupid brain somehow scrambled that around to "she's trying to seduce me".
@@IzayoiMeiHigu He was wishing.🙄
"There is a provocative manner... She has a seductive quality"
What BS. So weird to describe her that Way, I did not get that at all.
I know.
Men love to get off on women's pain and trauma.. of course they had the gall to describe this as "provocative."
I know, right? What the heck are they talking about? Would anything she did be considered "seductive" just because she is very attractive?
@Geo Rock sure but what is and isn't seductive isn't objective, I think the issue is more that the comment is on her seductive manner rather than her mental health. You don't see, for example, "pictured in figure A is a patient with severe eczema and a rockin' behind" in most textbooks.
Yup. It's purely subjective, too. He's seeing her the way he wants to see her. No one should be described as seductive because that sounds like the doctor thinks she's coming onto him. But socioculturally in the 1960s it was about normalcy (i.e., everyone being the same) and suppressing free thought, so I can see it actually being what he thought or being used as control, especially with how the majority of men viewed women.
nothing hysterical about her. she sounds intelligent, insightful and articulate and working her way through understanding and processing her past, her feelings and emotions.
Reading a lot of the comments just shows how clueless a lot of people are and how little experience they have with people who are mentally ill. I grew up with a mother who was diagnosed as paranoid schizophrenic and paranoid pyschosis disorder. Every single day with her, I had to survive. That meant that I grew very adapt at reading body language and picking up cues on when the tide was about to change, so to speak. I had to adapt. And because my mother was mentally ill, she hung around other people who were mentally ill, in various ways. I would watch these people, converse with them, and most of them seemed "normal", but trust me, there's just little things that you pick up on, and I see that in this lady. She ain't right, and I'm honestly not too sure if i would believe everything that she was saying. I get a wary vibe about her.
So what are those little things you're talking about in her case??
