Q: The best way a person with HPD can get better is through treatment. However, most people with HPD either don’t seek treatment or they only stay in treatment for a short period of time. You should encourage your loved one to get treatment. If they are already seeking treatment, help encourage them to continue treatment, even when they get bored or want to quit.  "I love you, and your behavior is hurting yourself and me. Would you be willing to get treatment?” “I know you feel that treatment is no longer exciting or that you are better, but this is a major condition that cannot be fixed quickly. Will you please reconsider going back to treatment?” Psychotherapy is the most effective treatment for HPD. This includes talking with a therapist who can use different therapeutic approaches to help your loved one, such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Most people with HPD don’t continue with their therapy after beginning because they lose interest, think they are better, or are too impulsive to follow through with their treatment. Cognitive behavioral therapy can address problematic behaviors, such as impulsive actions, manipulative behaviors, and theatrics. Often, people with HPD also have other disorders, such as depression. Because of their feelings of insecurity, inadequacy, and abandonment, they may feel depressed and need to be treated for this. If this is the case, your loved one can take selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) to treat the depression, which may help their overall mood. SSRIs are common in the treatment of depression, and include medications such as Zoloft, Celexa, and Prozac. Histrionic personality disorder may lead to self-destructive behavior. People with HPD often exhibit suicidal behavior or behavior leading to self-harm. The person may just be threatening these behaviors to gain attention, so you need to make a decision about the seriousness of the threat.  Some people with HPD will harm themselves or try to commit suicide to gain attention. Try to notice when your loved one is getting to this destructive stage. People with HPD may also exhibit dangerous behavior towards others. Watch your loved one to see if they exhibit any tendencies to hurt those around them.
A: Encourage treatment. Help them get psychotherapy. Seek treatment for underlying conditions. Watch for any destructive behavior.

Q: Depending on what phone type you have, most major carriers provide free options for tracking your phone but must be set up initially. You will be able to send a call or notification to your phone that will make a noise.  iPhone users will need a phone that must support iOS9 and have iWork for iOS installed for tracking software to work. Using a web browser, create and configure an iCloud account by navigating to icloud.com. Either log in to your iCloud account or, if you do not have one, you can create an account for free. Android users will need to access the Android Device Manager on the smartphone. You can access the settings in one of two places. You can use the “Settings” app and scroll down to tap on “Google” then tap on “Security.” Or you can use a dedicated “Google Settings” app then tap on “Security.” The following steps vary depending on the type of phone you use.  iPhone users must access the iCloud app. Open the iCloud application on your iPhone. In the app, scroll down to turn on “Find My iPhone.” You will receive a new prompt. Tap on “Allow” to proceed. Android users must allow their phone to be remotely located. Under “Android Device Manager,” tap on “Remotely Locate This Device.” Navigate to the “Settings” app, which is separate from the “Google Settings” app. Scroll down then tap on “Location” and ensure that all location services are activated. You will need to use another device such as a computer.  iPhone users must navigate to iCloud.com or access “Find My iPhone” on another iPhone or iPad device through the iCloud app. Click or tap on “Find My iPhone” which will bring you to a map with the last known location of your phone. You can choose to either “Play Sound” or “Send Message” to play a sound on your iPhone. Android users will need to navigate to android.com/devicemanager in a web browser to make sure your device appears on the map. Tap or click on the “Ring” option to cause your device to emit sound. Make sure this other device is logged into the same Google account as the phone you are trying to locate.
A: Configure tracking program on a different device. Configure your phone for tracking. Test your phone’s ringtone.

Q: Purchase a small tube of sealant meant for fixing aquariums, or other leaks. Pipe a thin band around the joint between the gasket and the bottle. If you need to, use a popsicle stick or a toothpick to smooth the sealant down. Allow the sealant to cure. You may need to seal the area between the gasket and the tubing itself. You don't really have to do this, but it will make filling the bottle easier. You can also cut it off only partway so that it's still attached to the rest of the bottle by a "hinge." This will allow you to partially close the opening.
A:
Seal the area around the gasket and tubing. Cut the top part off of the bottle, if desired.
