Crazy
It was Einstein who defined insanity as doing the same thing and expecting different results. Any therapist working with couples sees this definition enacted over and over. Partners will insist on repeating behaviors which experience has proven to be either futile or destructive — controlling, coercing, criticizing, nagging, blaming, guilting and shaming, for example. Then they wonder why they still feel so frustrated, helpless and crazy.
