Melotraumatic

When a person has a horrible experience/injury and either talks about it over and over again or blames all of his/her faults on it for months after it happened. Either way, he/she makes way too big a deal out of the traumatic experience.

Man 1: I swear, I feel bad for that girl who had a nasty concussion after that car accident, but now, every time she loses her temper, she just blames that accident for it.
Man 2: I know, she's so melotraumatic.

Friend 1: Dude, I can never date any woman again after my last girlfriend cheated on me with my brother.
Friend 2: Hey, man, I know that what she did was wrong, but you have to get over her. That was like 11 months ago.
Friend 1: You don't understand, she hurt me deeply-
Friend 2: Dude, stop being so melotraumatic.

melodramatic

The state of being exaggeratedly (theatrically) dramatic.

'Melodramatic' is derived from melodrama, which is in turn derived from the Greek word 'melos' (music) and the word 'drama'.

Random student: *watching commercial in class about poor children in Africa*: Oh, those poor kids! I just want to hug them and kiss them and tell them *sniff* they're going to be okay! Oh, I'm sorry *sniff*... can I get some water?

Me to another classmate: ''Ugh, just another display of attention-seeking from Ms Melodramatic. I swear, she's constantly trying to make herself look more thoughtful or 'nice' than she really is. Either that, or she's just overreacting.''
