%COLLUSIVE ADDICTIVE CODEPENDENT FALSE SUBSTITUTION 881007

     Dishonest  substitutions  play a central role in  the
addictive and codependent behaviors of collusions.

     In a substitution one reality is offered in place  of
another reality. The character of the substitution depends
upon:

     1.   The    degree   of  similarity   between     the
substitute reality and the authentic reality.

     2.   The  degree to which the substitute reality  can
or  does  meet the needs which might have been met by  the
authentic reality.

     3.   The   degree  to which each person affected   by
the  substitution knows of and understands the nature  and
consequences of the substitution.

     4.   The  degree to which the substitution is made as
a unilateral deceptive maneuver by one party in a  pattern
of manipulative behaviors.

     5.   The  degree  to  which the  substitute   reality
is   regarded  by  various  parties  as  superior  to  the
authentic reality.

     6.   The   degree  to  which  the original  authentic
reality   is regarded as an inappropriate replacement  for
the  present  substitute reality;   while  the  substitute
reality  is  regarded  as the authentic reality due  to  a
state of complete confusion of consciousness.

     7.   The  level   of consciousness  of  the  affected
parties  with regard to the character of the substitution:
before, during and after the substitution is made.

     8.   The  character  of interpersonal  responses   in
the light of (or in the darkness of)  the substitution  as
made.

     9.   How   long    it  is  before  victims   of    an
unauthentic substitution become aware that an  unauthentic
substitution  has occurred,  and how they respond  to  the
realization of the unauthentic substitution.

     10.   How     those      responsible     for      the
unauthentic  substitution  respond to the  discovery  that
they   were   responsible   for  making   an   unauthentic
substitution.
                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
