Understanding the Drama Triangle vs. Presence

Learn the about the roles that keep you stuck in the drama triangle and have you repeating issues in your life. Also learn about the roles that support you in living in presence where you can permanently solve your life's challenges.

*The Drama Triangle was created by Dr. Stephen Karpman and the counterpart above the line roles are from The Empowerment Dynamic by David Emerald.

This is the empowerment dynamic (TED*) created by David Emerald. He deserves to be credited in this video as does Karpman for the drama triangle.

@1:05 Mindlessly exercising? - wow, who does this? "Sorry Honey, I'm going to be a hero by getting some exercise right now.."
Exercise is a great stress relief and can give ourselves time to process our thoughts and emotions. Do it whenever you can.
@1:25 Blaming yourself, like, "I should be/do.." is good as a correctional process.
But anything that we repeatedly dwell upon to the exclusion of healthy thoughts is excessive. Anything excessive is not good.
Balance in everything, as much as it lies within you is the target.
Thanks for the video, we need to keep the Drama Triangle in mind.

Great video!! Thank you for explaining the roles we play IN RELATION TO OURSELVES and how we play the roles first within ourselves and then project them out onto others. VITAL vital point. I would add another word to the presence archetypes - EMPOWERED :)

[lesleykemp]

well created video - it would be helpful though to to see examples of the creator, challenger and coach roles in action.

Great explanation of the Karpman Triangle. I love how you describe the references to ourselves

It was very helpful to recognize my pattern and to know what to do instead, I am buying the book too soon.

Interesting material, in the right hands and right minds. But not if it's being used by someone who is using it as a weapon to hit someone over the head with, with an overzealous ambition to reform someone whom they personally have chosen to reform. That's how I came upon this video...some well-intentioned individual took it upon themselves to give me some unsolicited advice.

[FeonaLeeJones]

I can relate to being the hero, villain, and victim all at the same time lol

[InterchangeAnalytics]

this is a fantastic video, thanks for sharing

[stewartcaldeira]

How is this video created. Love the animation

[CraftyOldGit]

The term 'drama triangle' is already taken. I found this confusing as I didn't at first realise this video isn't about the 'drama triangle' used by Eric Berne in Transactional analysis. It was proposed by San Francisco psychiatrist Stephen B. Karpman. See Wikipedia.

Cheers. Watched this curtsy of NHS Elect. I was expecting to see a clip on 'Manager or Leader?' Instead the link took me to 'Drama Triangle'! Interesting concept. Will update provider too.

I must be a villain, because I can't get past their misspelling of "villian". 😢
