Narcissism is an illness, a more or less incurable disease that, in some cases can be managed, if the individual—the narcissist—participates in his or her own recovery. Instead of waiting for this to happen, or trying to make it happen, we can take the attention we''ve showered on the narcissist and apply it to ourselves. Surviving the Narcissist: 30 Days of Recovery—Whether You''re Loving, Leaving, or Living With One can help bring clarity to the process of letting go of a present-day relationship or one that has haunted you from the past. This book addresses the difficult and often surprising feelings that arise from letting go of the narcissist including sadness, anxiety, confusion, disbelief, anger, and numbness. Use the meditations, suggestions, and information in this book as a road map on your journey of overcoming the effects of narcissism. Revisit it in your recovery as you watch the changes take hold—inside you.

Every parent is different. Every child is unique. But when the parent is a narcissist, there are patterns and behaviors that are specific to how they relate to their child. These patterns and behaviors can set the stage for how the child''s self image develops. The purpose of this book is to present these manifestations in a distilled format, simple and ordinary, to demystify the dynamic to help individuals grow and let go. In writing When Your Parent Is a Narcissist, the purpose is to help readers see how the unhealthy dynamic, having taken root in childhood and manifested insidiously, may continue into adulthood. Think of this as a guide to help you understand the nuanced ways that a narcissist parent''s toxicity infiltrated your life, and then to help you achieve what you need most—to reestablish the relationship you have, and may have lost, with yourself.

Contact with a narcissist can be at once exhilarating and confusing, hurtful and seductive. It can make you feel like you are losing your mind, yet without an understanding of why you feel that way. Some narcissistic people, many in fact, seem quite normal, welcoming, even nice. But betrayal often follows, and so does hurt. This little ebook can be used to help you recognize the many ways narcissism looks and how it seduces in relationships, friendships and at work. Understanding the disease of narcissism can also help the non-narcissist begin to heal. This ebook offers tiny but powerful suggestions to promote healing from the pain narcissism has inflicted. Sneak a glance (on your phone or other e-reader) when you need extra support as you work through your day, deal with emotions, and learn how to step back, and away, from the damaging effects of a narcissistic person.
