Do you have an ‘‘irregular
person’ in your life? Accor-
dingo Joyce Landorf, in her
book ‘‘Irregular People’,
they are poeple ‘who have
the knack of wounding you
every time you see them.
They say the wrong thing,
they ruin your day, they keep
your emotions in constant
turmoil and an irregular per-
son is someone you can’t
escape, usually a close
relative - mother, father, hus-
band, wife, brother, sister or
in-law.”
‘Irregular people have
similar personality traits.
You can’t reason with them,
can’t depend on them, and
can’t expect any real support
from them.” :
As with Joyce Landorf’s ir-
regular person, it seems that
most of these persons have
some degree of emotional
deafness. “It is as though
here and there in the. ir-
regular persony mind, big
chunks of denial block or plug
their heart’s ability to hear.”
Landorf goes on to say that
“Once in awhile you’ll have a
fairly normal conversation
with Jour irregular person, in
which he or she seems to hear
quite well. When this hap-
pens, you are so pleased that
you eagerly plunge ahead
and boldly share something
which is of vital importance,
only to find you are not talk-
ing to a Jing, breathing
human being, but a stone
mask. A sudden and profound
deafness has overtaken
them, and instant denial sets
up like cement in their ears to
block out everything you've
just said.” ;
Barbara Muse, Director of
Support Programs, Mental
Health Association in North
Carolina, adds that it has
been her experience after
more than 25 years of coping
‘with an irregular person that
during this season of the
year, irregular persons seem
to have a special knack for
seeing to it that no planned
event will be carried out ac-
cording to plan.
' However; there areways to ff
learn to cope with these per.
sons - ways to continue to love
and accept them, ways to
have good days in spite of this
person.
On Tuesday evening,
January 7, Ms. Muse will be
speaking about what happens
to families who are struggl-
ing with irregular persons.
She will talk about how these
families can learn to change
their response, and how they
can again enjoy life.
Under a $64,100 grant from
Kate Bitting Reynolds Health
Care Trust, Ms. Muse is ac-
tively working to begin
REACH (REAssurance to
eaCH) programs throughout
North Carolina, helping
families of these Irregular
People learn new and better
‘ways of responding.
The Mental Health Associa-
tion in Gaston County, an af-
filiate of MHA in North
Carolina, is sponsoring this
program, to be held in the
United Way Bldg., 200 E.
Franklin Blve., at 7:00 p.m.
The program is free of
charge. If you have an Ir-
regular person in your family
(and most people do) or have
a close friend who does, you
will not want to miss this
discussion. Be sure to invite
that close friend also.
