High-Conflict Emotional Warfare
Briefly

High-conflict people (HCPs) are characterized by their destructive behavior, targeting those closest to them, including family and community members, through emotionally charged attacks. This emotional warfare, marked by seduction of negative advocates and a blame-targeting approach, creates chaos by dividing communities and asserting HCP dominance. Victims of HCPs often experience confusion and immobilization as they struggle to comprehend the irrational nature of the attacks, making it vital for them to recognize this pattern in order to understand it is not their fault and to seek ways to protect themselves from further harm.
