I am reading an article called Choice Theory and Emotional Dependency by Joan Hoogstad.
She states, "Dependent individuals have not acquired the effective behaviors they need to satisfy their need for power, largely because the choices they make involve all or some of the disconnecting habits they learned as a child. Disconnecting habits are blaming, complaining, nagging, punishing, threatening, criticizing and rewarding in order to control."
I love reality therapy and choice theory the best so far of all the therapeutic models I learned this semester.

What was I thinking?
Hello friends,
It has been a very busy last couple of weeks with adjusting to college after ten years. I must say alot has changed. They used to hand you a book and tell you to memorize it. Not anymore. They want to "see" the learning. So lots and lots of papers and research on top of the book. lol.
Anyway, I really am enjoying my classes if my head does not explode first. I am taking 5 courses. yes! you are reading correctly.
I just thought I would let you all know I am still here but have not had time to post anything and I will try to see what you all have been up too!!
Hugs!
