Vulnerable Moment: Savior Complex

Now that 2024 is coming to an end, I wanted to reflect back on my year and I started to realize that I have savior complex. I always felt the need to help people with their mental health even when they were a terrible person to me. But I realized it’s not my job to “save” people and I should stop putting my self in the position of God!!!

I always grew up a people pleaser/shy kid and I’m seeing that it moved over to my adult life. Looking back, I’m upset at myself for putting up with it for so long but I’m happy that I’m able to move forward now without repeating myself. I’m also glad that I realized this towards the end of the year so that I can start a new year fresh.

Any one else can relate to this? So happy I have a support system to help me during this process….

Vulnerable Nursing Moment 🫠

A few months into night shift on my step-down unit, I started seriously questioning if I made the right choice. It was 3 a.m., my 3rd shift in a row. I was exhausted, overstimulated, and barely holding it together in the break room. I kept thinking — Is this really what I worked so hard for?

That feeling is most commonly called a savior complex (also known as the rescuer role).

Related terms you might also hear, depending on the context: • Codependency – when your self-worth becomes tied to fixing, helping, or rescuing others, often at the expense of your own needs. • Rescuer role (Karpman Drama Triangle) – a pattern where someone takes responsibility for others’ prob

Seven characters from The Vampire Diaries stand on rocks in a dark, misty forest. Text announces "You're invited to the Graduation. Dead or Alive. the Vampire Diaries SEASON FINALE THURS 8/7c."
