I’ve been posting a series of articles on the erroneous ways disordered characters tend to think that lead to significant behavior and relationship problems. Some of the “thinking errors” I’ve addressed already include unreasonable thinking, possessive thinking, combative thinking, and prideful thinking: “Unreasonable Thinking” “The Possessive Thinking of the Disturbed Character” “Having to Win: The Combative Thinking...
Disordered characters are very unrealistic in their thinking about life and the world around them. They also tend to harbor excessive expectations. But their expectations are usually very one-sided. They tend to set virtually unattainable standards for everyone else, while feeling no concomitant sense of obligation to meet the expectations most of us would like them to accept. Disturbed characters expect a whole lot from their government,...
I’ve been posting a series of articles on the ways disordered characters tend to think. The kinds of problems individuals of disturbed character tend to have in their relationships are a direct outgrowth of the “thinking errors” they engage in, so it’s helpful to understand their distorted thinking processes when we’re attempting to understand and deal with their problem behavior patterns. Some of the erroneous thinking I’ve...
I’ve been posting a series of articles on the erroneous ways disordered characters tend to think. Prior posts have covered such “thinking errors” as possessive thinking, combative thinking, and egocentric thinking. All of these erroneous ways of thinking lead to attitudes that predisopose disordered characters to behave in socially irresponsible ways. Many disturbed characters engage in so much prideful thinking that they can’t...
My recent posts have addressed several of the erroneous or distorted ways that disordered characters tend to think. The “thinking errors” disturbed characters engage in lead to the formation of irresponsible and antisocial attitudes which in turn lead to behaviors that cause problems in relationships with others. Some of the topics we’ve already discussed in this series of posts include the tendency of disordered characters...
I’ve been posting on the erroneous ways disordered characters tend to think that lead to problematic behaviors in their relationships with others. Some of these thinking errors include possessive thinking, egocentric thinking, and self-deceptive thinking and I have prior posts on each of these thinking errors. Disturbed characters also tend to think about things in an impulsive way. They’re primarily concerned about what they want at...
I’ve been posting some articles on the erroneous ways that disordered characters tend to think. Prior posts have covered such “thinking errors” as possessive thinking (see: The Possessive Thinking of the Disturbed Character), egocentric thinking (see: Egocentric Thinking), and combative thinking (see: Having to Win: The Combative Thinking of the Disturbed Character). One of the more insidious thinking errors common to disturbed...
This post continues a series on the distorted thinking patterns displayed by disordered or disturbed characters. Earlier posts have dealt with the distubed character’s penchants for thinking in distorted ways (see: What Were They Thinking - Pt. 2), thinking of others as objects to possess and control (see: The Possessive Thinking of the Disturbed Character), thinking of themselves to the exclusion of others (see: Egocentric Thinking)...
This post is another in a series on the erroneous thinking patterns common to persons of disturbed or disordered character. Persons with character disorders tend to think in ways that lead to problem social behaviors. Some of the thinking errors I’ve already posted on include possessive thinking (see: The Possessive Thinking of the Disturbed Character), egocentric thinking (see: Egocentric Thinking) and extreme thinking (see: The...
I’ve been posting a series of articles on the ways persons with disturbed characters tend to think. Prior posts have addressed their penchants for egocentric thinking and possessive thinking. (See: Egocentric Thinking and The Possessive Thinking of the Disturbed Character). Disordered characters also tend to perceive things in terms of black-and-white or all-or-none. They might take the position that if they can’t have everything...
