Repelling Others With A Victim Mentality

There are “toxic” habits that tend to be repellent to others in relationships:

• Negativity
• Victim Mentality
• Over-Sensitivity
• Over-reactivity
• Neediness/Clinginess

(Inspired by Kathy Caprino’s “Toxic Behaviors That Push People Away” post.)

If you are in a VICTIM MENTALITY habit, you may be:

• blaming a “persecutor” or “villain” for how you feel
• searching for a “rescuer” to solve your problem or “save” you
• refusing to take responsibility for the results you’ve created

I invite you to consider these questions about having a VICTIM MENTALITY habit:

• What do you tend to think or believe when you’re stuck in this habit?
• What do you tend to feel?
• What actions are you taking or not taking?
• How does having a  VICTIM MENTALITY habit temporarily benefit you?
• What is a VICTIM MENTALITY habit costing you?
• When do you notice connecting with someone who has a VICTIM MENTALITY habit?
