As someone who fell prey to someone that way, yep. I try not to be callous, but at a certain point it goes from "you're part of the problem" and into "you're incapable of coping with a boring normal situation and so you just cause problems to deal with it"

    People who feel the need to feed drama in their life feel like they don't matter. They create problems to feel like something actually matters in their life, that they matter, that their problems matter, and they create these problems themselves to involve others to get that social validation of themselves as being people who matter. It's basically narcissism. They feel like they don't get as much attention as they think they deserve, so they create problems for everyone so that they have to pay attention.
