Identifying and Healing from Narcissistic People
Ratings3
Average rating5
One of the most insightful and validating books on the subject of narcissistic abuse. This has helped me immensely in my healing journey. I'll be thinking about what was taught in these pages for years to come. Highly recommended!
Highly recommended for anyone with a narcissist in their life. So, pretty much everyone. If you have a parent, partner or boss on this spectrum, then you definitely should read this.
This book is not about the voyeuristic infatuation with why narcissists act the way they do, or how to “diagnose” someone. It’s specifically about how they harm, and how to heal. It’s eminently practical in understanding that not everyone can go no contact, with advice for how to deal with different levels of interaction, recognizing gaslighting, boundary setting, rewriting stories, giving yourself compassion, and importantly, a refusal to push the toxic, ubiquitous advice that victims must forgive people who will never change.
“It's Not You” deserves to break the Goodreads rating mold. This audiobook gets a bonus shooting star!
