Are all highly energetic people histrionics?

Hi,

As I understand it all histrionics have elevated levels of hormone noradrenaline (norepinephrine) which is responsible for higher energy levels. So I'm interested to hear your opinion and experiences, are all highly energetic people also at the same time histrionics?

I'm highly energetic and recently realised that I have HPD, I have 7/8 traits, also all of my past longlasting relationships were with other histrionics, among all good things they were emotional rollercoasters and high drama in all of them, with frequent cheating, but also my best friend have HPD, and of all my good friends, I enjoy spending time the most with those who also have some traits of HPD, not surprising all are in dysfunctional relationships, but all of them have amazingly high energy levels. I think it is that high energy that draws me to other HPD's. Since I realised that all my previous relationship were disastrous because of our HPD, I started working on negative aspects of my behaviour while trying to keep the positive ones in order to be able to build normal relationship in the future, but I still find energetic people the most attractive, so what are your thoughts? Is it possible to be a highly energetic person and at the same time be non HPD?

Their reference system isn't particularly good, they only list books.

Also about connection you could read:
