A forensic psychologist has said Amber heard displayed signs of borderline personality disorder as the court battle between Johnny Depp and the actress continues.
A forensic psychologist has told a court Amber Heard displays signs of a personality disorder which involves ‘extreme effort to be the centre of attention’, while also doubting her claims of post traumatic stress disorder , as the latest person to testify duringDr Shannon Curry said during the trial on Tuesday that Heard suffered not only from borderline personality disorder but histrionic personality disorder, which can involve ‘manipulation tactics to try and get their needs met’.
Heard was seen concentrating on notes as well as watching the testimony as Dr Curry told the court of her observations of the two disorders: ‘ a tendency to be very self-righteous but to also deny that self-righteousness and to judge others critically against these high standards.‘They could use manipulation tactics to try and get their needs met, very needy of attention, approval, acceptance.
She went on: ‘When someone is afraid of being abandoned by their partner or by anyone else…they will make desperate attempts to prevent that from happening. ‘When people are displaying these emotions with this personality disorder, there’s a sense of shallowness to it,’ Dr Curry said.‘This disorder involves extreme discomfort with not being the centre of attention, extreme efforts to be the centre of attention.‘When they feel they’re not the centre of attention you will see some strange things making up stories to try and get attention taking on the victim or princess role.
