Invisible Abuse


Book Description

YOU'RE IN A RELATIONSHIP, BUT SOMETIMES YOU FEEL ALONE. Sometimes you worry that your partner is only "putting up" with you. These are just two of the common warning signs that you are in a relationship with a narcissist, and they should never be ignored. You may also find your partner to be very controlling, down to what you wear or eat. You may feel like you're walking on eggshells around another person, not comfortable or at ease with them (this is a big one). If this is the case, it's possible that you may be suffering from Narcissistic Abuse Syndrome. Congratulations! You have taken the first step towards recovery: seeking the truth. Informing yourself and arming yourself with knowledge is all too critical for those suffering under a narcissist because, as you may have observed, the narcissist will often assert their reality onto you. This can cloud your judgment and make it easy to forget what is normal and healthy behavior. And worst of all, the abusive tactics of narcissists are almost always covert, making them difficult to spot, and giving the narcissist "plausible deniability" that can result in hair-pullingly frustrating arguments with them that seem to go nowhere as they defend their actions. Take a deep breath. If you feel guilty or at fault, it's only the narcissist's voice talking in your head. The sole purpose of this book is to unravel that web that the narcissist has spun so that you can have a clear vision of the condition, and take the steps to heal from any trauma that has occurred and prevent it from happening all over again. Inside these pages you will uncover: The six unmistakable warning signs of Narcissistic Abuse Syndrome An easy trick to always spot a narcissist quickly and effortlessly Indefensible weapons to disarm the covert narcissist The surprising truth about why empaths and sensitive people are drawn to narcissists The number one most powerful tool for healing from narcissistic abuse Other recovery methods for the narcissists in your family, including narcissistic mothers Effective ways to protect yourself from future abuse and never tolerate it again! And much more... Don't let a narcissist convince you that nothing is wrong! Even if you feel like there is no hope for recovery, or you've tried and failed in the past, you can begin your journey to recovery and to the person that will treat you the way you want right now. Arm yourself with this collection of proven techniques and a wealth of knowledge that is quick and easy to absorb. Scroll up and add this book to your cart!
