One Answer to EQ Answered!

I've decided on one answer to my essential question: the identified patient. This is considered a problem in many families. The identified patient is someone in the family who is blamed for all the problems as a whole. My mentor, Vivian, introduced this term to me, and as I went through my research, I found that this is more than just a problem. For some people, it is a way of living. It becomes a big problem, which leads the family to therapy.
