An interesting interpretation of the drama triangle I’ve heard is that some people will cast themselves in the “villain” role if they tend to blame themselves in any situation where there’s conflict or someone else is upset. In a sense, they’re taking too much responsibility but in a non-productive way, particularly if they can’t identify anything in particular that they did wrong.
Is this a habit you’ve encountered in anyone you’ve coached?
