Victim triangle

Let’s meet the players:

Dr Stephen Karpman’s 1968 idea, was that conflict needs players and players need roles. The consequential objective of each role is just to have its own needs met – even if temporarily – in order to feel justified in its rationale/behaviour/feeling. #narcissisticpersonalitydisorder #narcissist #narcissism #narcissiticmanipulation #narcissisticsociopath #femalenarcissist #narcissisticabuse #toxicpeople #npd

Have you come across the concept of the Drama Triangle? While the original Drama Triangle focuses on the dynamics within a group where each individual adopts a specific role, the Codependent Drama Triangle showcases how a person with codependency tendencies eventually and predictably assumes all three roles. 🔗 Explore the blog to discover more about the characteristics and actions associated with each role, along with strategies for overcoming codependency! #relationships #codependency

A series to show the larger world the impact of Transactional Analysis on the lives of people and how It has been applied by many in their own lives.

There are times when we all react to situations as victims. There are times when we really are the victim. Other times though maybe not so much. However, when we don’t take any responsibility for ourselves we will always react as a victim.

The Drama Triangle was first described by Stephen Karpman in the 1960s. It is a model of dysfunctional social interactions and illustrates a power game that involves three roles: Victim, Rescuer, and Persecutor, each role represents a common and ineffective response to conflict.

The Drama Triangle is something I use a lot. Which are you - victim, rescuer or persecutor?

Living in The Drama Triangle, like anything we do from a reactive mindset, is costly: It’s ineffective over the long term, exhausting, demotivating, and endlessly limiting. Yet, accordingly to some estimates, 90% of people spend 90% of their time operating from this place.
