When drama shows up inside your head, know that the role isn't real. It's a choice. Exit drama now and take charge of your life.How do you react to conflict? Do you turn into a victim, persecutor or a rescuer? Do you keep repeating the harmful behaviors that keeps you stuck and prevents you from moving forward or do you take measures to break unhealthy patterns of thinking and interacting?Drama triangle provides an escape path to hide our underlying feelings and prevent us from addressing our real problems. It is a powerful framework to understand the dysfunctional roles we adopt to deal with the conflict. Each role—victim, persecutor, rescuer—represents a common and ineffective response to conflict. Latching onto one of these roles in the drama triangle is the root cause of most unhealthy interactions. Being caught up inside it can be damaging to your physical and mental health and can also ruin your relationships at work and in life.
