Do you try to please a loved one, only to find your efforts have made matters worse? Have you felt worthless after another raging session of criticism and ridicule by someone close to you?

Psychologists and behavioral experts are still debating the causes of narcissism, but they all agree on one thing: having a narcissist in your life is extremely harmful to your well-being. The energy spent coping with a narcissist can leave you feeling drained and empty, deeply affecting your self-esteem.

If you’ve found yourself in such a torturous situation, and you feel trapped and hopeless, take a deep breath: you’re not alone and there’s a way to regain your freedom and confidence.

Do you know someone who is overly arrogant, shows an extreme lack of empathy, or exhibits an inflated sense of entitlement? Do they exploit others, or engage in magical thinking? These are all traits of narcissistic personality disorder, and when it comes to dealing with narcissists, it can be difficult to get your point across. So how do you handle the narcissistic people in your life?

Disarming the Narcissist, Second Edition, will show you how to move past the narcissist's defenses using compassionate, empathetic communication.

By validating some common narcissistic concerns, you'll also find out how to be heard in conversation with a narcissist. This book will help you learn to meet your own needs while side-stepping unproductive power struggles and senseless arguments with someone who is at the center of his or her own universe. This new edition also includes new chapters on dealing with narcissistic women, aggressive and abusive narcissists, strategies for safety, and the link between narcissism and sex addiction. Finally, you'll learn how to set limits with your narcissist and when it's time to draw the line on unacceptable behavior.

Book Description

Are you interested in knowing what a covert narcissist is? If yes, then this is the right book for you! Narcissists are often manipulative, obsessed with their own needs and desires, and indifferent to others' needs. But there is another equally challenging type of narcissist: the covert narcissist. A covert narcissist is also self-centered and manipulative but has a generally charming demeanor that keeps his or her faults under wraps. They are highly attuned to other people's reactions and adept at using mind games to their advantage. Unlike regular narcissists, it can be hard to spot a covert narcissist; they can fly under the radar for years without detection. But leave no doubt, they are just as dangerous as their overt counterparts -- if not more so. ★★★This book covers the following topics:★★★ Who Can Be a Covert Narcissist? How to Recognize a Covert Narcissist? Control and Manipulation Tactics The Isolation All the Stages of a Relationship with a Covert Narcissist Your Body Knew: Common Illnesses Divorcing a Covert Narcissist ...And many more! Perhaps it's telling that many people can recognize covert narcissists on sight and yet struggle to see them in their loved ones - and in this, I suspect there is a bit of projection going on. I'm sure we all want our relationships with family, friends, and colleagues to be more harmonious and less fraught than the truth sometimes is. Moreover, it's important not to make judgments about those we love based on how they present themselves; thus, we can unwittingly fall into a form of narcissistic injury that engenders resentment on their part.
