Narcissistic Mothers & Abuse Recovery (ePub)

Toxic relationships are hard to spot and even harder to break away from. Discover how you can do both, and break the cycle of abuse for good.

It is thought that between 1% and 6% of adults may suffer from Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), but the reality is that many more people than this are affected by the behaviors associated with narcissism.

Children, parents, colleagues, friends -- anyone who has a relationship with someone with NPD -- lives with the ramifications of their behavior, often for a lifetime. And unless those issues are addressed, there's a very real risk of carrying harmful behaviors forward into future relationships.

Whether someone has a clear diagnosis of NPD or simply displays some of the qualities of a narcissist, their behavior can be manipulative, dangerous, destructive, and often, if it's left unchecked, it only gets worse.

When you've lived with a narcissist for years, whether that's a parent, a child, or a sibling, it can be hard to spot the red flags that are telling you there's something wrong -- and even harder to know what to do about it.

But there's an easy solution: it's simply a case of understanding narcissistic behavior and how to deal with it -- and when you do, you'll have all the skills you need to break the cycle of familial narcissism and begin your journey of healing.
