Script and the stress• Stan Woollams has
suggested the idea of a stress scale.
• The greater the stress, the more likely the person is to get into script.
• It we grade stress say from 1 to 10, I may get into script in a situation that is stressful at level 6 or higher.
• You may be able to go up to to 8 before moving to script.
Script and the stress• Say I have a disagreement
with my immediate line manager. This represents only a level 3 stress. So I stay out of script.
• I discuss our differences in an Adult way. I reason that my manager and I will either work out a compromise, or have to agree to differ. If it’s the latter, then no disaster.
Script and the stress• But now the line manager
calls in the Director. An argument with the boss counts as level 6 on the stress scale.
• I flip into script. Faced with Director, I activate the same physical reactions, feelings and thoughts I used to have as a child when my angry father loomed over me like a giant, shouting words of abuse I couldn’t understand.
Script and the stress• Without realizing it
unconsciously, I have made the Director ‘become’ my father. And I respond as if I were a terrified kid of three again.
• The stress scale is a good way of pointing up the relationship between stress and scripty responses. It does not mean that stress can make anyone go into script.
• The movement to script is decisional, even though the decision is out of awareness.
Script and the stress
• It is probable that simply by
learning about script, I will
become able to take greater
stress before I move into scripty
behavior.
• If I undertake personal therapy,
I can further improve my ability
to problem solve rather than
reverting to scripty behavior.
