So it makes sense that they would change attention gathering strategies to becoming appealing in a maternal sense or using illness real or imagined (somatization) to gather attention supply.

There is some evidence that certain in certain PD's (AsPD) the acting out of associated behaviors decreases due natural decline of hormones and energy; probably also occurs in HPD which when not responsible for the decline of the condition itself might explain a shift in supply strategies...


the somatization is a very real and active strategy of my dad's, i think it is a byproduct of poor coping mechanisms for him with strong mental//inter-personal relationships though. *shrugs* just thought i would throw that in there.
