Dana HartnettPublished 7 months ago in PsycheDynamics of the Victim-Rescuer-Persecutor Psychology Triangle
Human interactions and relationships are complex and often involve intricate psychological dynamics. One such dynamic is the Victim-Rescuer-Persecutor (VRP) psychology triangle, a concept popularized by the Karpman Drama Triangle. This model, developed by psychiatrist Stephen Karpman in the 1960s, helps explain how people can adopt different roles in interpersonal conflicts and how these roles are interconnected. In this article, we'll delve into the VRP psychology triangle, explore each role (Victim, Rescuer, and Persecutor), and discuss their relationships within the context of human interactions.

Bright JohnsonPublished 8 months ago in PsycheWhy We Get Triggered
The notion of being triggered, although sometimes overused, rests upon a profoundly significant concept within the realm of psychology . Being triggered, at its core, entails reacting with intense fear and anger to a current situation, which, to others, may appear innocuous and untroubling. In one moment, we may be composed, and in the next, we find ourselves plunged into despair and terror. The future, which once seemed promising only moments ago, now appears fraught with ruin and catastrophe. Those who experience these episodes would greatly prefer to maintain their composure and optimism. While it is crucial to understand how to experience fear or anger when circumstances genuinely warrant it, being triggered often feels counterproductive and utterly draining. It involves grappling with powerful emotions that are unjustified by the immediate surroundings and offer no benefit to our well-being.
