- Want, dont only need

Karpman drama triangle
 |
If you feel the urge to rescue, stop and think
If you feel the urge to persecute
If you feel the urge to be a victim
|
- Only confront if the adult is in charge otherwise you become persecutor
- If not asked for help or no intention of helping you become a rescuer
- If you become a victim Ill never do that again moves you to persecutor
To get out of the triangle
- Have other stroke sources
- I will get on with my life no matter what
Manipulative stroking controls behaviour withholding strokes
Conflict resolution
- Consensus but often I want what you want what I want
- Concession one person always gives in
- Compromise nobody gets what they want
- Cooperation agree to disagree
- Confrontation ok if adult in charge: there is a real problem here, we have to talk it through
- Conciliation overcome hostility and secure friendship; works if the child wants it and the adult knows how to get it
Unhooking
- Dont give or take stamps
- Give low value strokes
- Dont be persecutor rescuer or victim
- Stay ok but dont flaunt it
- Keep in adult
- Stay in the now
- Protect the other persons child if possible
- Develop other relationships
- Be consistent
- Stay friends if possible
In relationships, get the adult working by asking
- Where is this relationship going?
- How much punishment am I willing to take?
- What are my values?
- What will I be doing in 5 years time if I dont change?
