The biggest danger to all of us in recovery is the acting out of these roles. It wasn't good news to find out there was the solution.
Ever feel like you're stuck in a never-ending cycle of conflict? In this episode of 'Dad In Recovery - CONNversations', Nick Conn sits down with Mike Stillwell to unpack the Drama Triangle, a concept that might just shed light on those destructive interactions you can't seem to escape. The Drama Triangle, proposed by Stephen B. Karpman, identifies three roles people often fall into during conflicts: the persecutor, the victim, and the rescuer.
Understanding these roles can be a game-changer in addiction recovery, especially when it comes to family dynamics. Nick and Mike dive deep into how these roles play out and why it's crucial to move from a child ego state to an adult one. They also discuss how group therapy can be a powerful tool in this transformation.
Asking for help and setting boundaries are highlighted as essential steps in recovery, but ultimately, it's up to the individual to put in the effort. If you've ever felt trapped in a cycle of blame and rescue, this episode offers valuable insights on breaking free and finding a healthier path. Tune in to learn how understanding the Drama Triangle can help you navigate your recovery journey more effectively.
