How to Deal With High Conflict People | Bill Eddy

The goal is adapting what you do to either manage the relationship, decide, okay, that's not someone I'm gonna get close to, but I can still work with them or have them as neighbors or whatever. So I wanna emphasize that, because I think you're right. There's a lot of that today. And people come to me with that concern and say, Bill, you teach about personality disorders.

Yes, so people understand patterns of behavior and how to adapt your own behavior. I'm not teaching people to label other people. So that's real important.

So we have to be cautious. But on the other hand, aware. And the more you're aware of patterns, like being aware of someone with an alcohol abuse issue is to go, okay, I'm not going to be serving him alcohol with dinner. It's a great person, but I'm just going to leave that out of the evening meal. Adapt to what we do rather than judging them.

And I don't see people with personality disorders as lesser beings. I see them as having a different set of behaviors. that they acquire pretty much in childhood. So I don't hold it against them. I may dislike their patterns of behavior, but I really don't hate people like that. I've been a therapist with clients like that.

So I think our awareness needs to be there so we adapt how we work with people. But I think the gut feeling is... is so important. And as a therapist, I was trained, pay attention to your gut because that's going to help you with your clients. And that's why the web method, their words, their behavior, but how I feel often gives me tips.

Yeah. I would say, first of all, that we see high conflict people in every occupation, in every culture, in every community, every economic status. I think that, I don't think there's research on this, but I think that healthcare and higher education are are two fields where there's a slightly higher incidence of high conflict people because there's a higher tolerance.

Oh, also I would say churches. And we get consultations with churches sometimes. There's a high tolerance for behavior that's outside the norm.

Yes. Yes. Students and faculty and staff? Yes, both. Administrators sometimes. And I believe it's because of the higher tolerance.
