If you look at Karpman’s Drama Triangle, you’ll wonder just how many people fall into the ‘rescuer’ corner, and further than that, how you might get the saviour complex from it.

Just as you say, the response there isn’t to switch to the victim or even the persecutor. The response is to break out of it.
