If you are in a relationship that seems to be suffocating you and you are no longer happy and want to come out of it, keep listening….

If you do a quick online search of toxic or narcissistic persons, the overwhelming advice you’ll find is to cut these people out of your life. But that’s easier said than done, especially if these people are family, colleagues, or other people with whom we live or work closely. We’ve all been around those people who can leave us feeling drained or a bit "off" after an encounter with them. Some people can leave us feeling agitated or annoyed or even just feeling really bad about ourselves. The most important thing you need to understand when dealing with someone like this is: Their behavior towards you has nothing to do with you, and more often reflects what they are going through or have gone through personally. Identifying their harmful behavior is the first step to minimizing their impact. You might not be able to change what they do, but you can change what you do with it.

Humans are social beings. There is an inherent need in all of us to socialize and interact, but not everyone that walks into our lives has our best interest in their minds. Thus, we all have come across toxic individuals at least once during our time on earth. But the situation can become ugly when you are involved in a relationship with that toxic person. These unhealthy patterns hold us back and generate a lot of suffering. They condition our reactions and responses in a way that is not serving our highest purpose. So, how can you stand up for yourself and confront this unhealthy relationship? This book will provide you with all the tools necessary to heal these toxic relationships and move forward.

This book's main aim is to help you come out of a toxic relationship and heal from everything you have faced. Even if you feel utterly hopeless right now, it’s never too late to start working on yourself and take baby steps towards healing.

Helpful and Extremely Clear!

This book is a must-audio for anyone who is an HSP as it explains the why of your intense emotions and the how of being manipulated by others occurs because of it.

Understanding and Tools for Recovery

This book is a perfect companion to Susan Forward’s Emotional Blackmail on narcissistic abuse. Thank you for a skillfully presented book which details the challenge and necessity of moving forward. I would love someone to take a dive into embracing positive history with an emotionally abusive partner. For example, a 20 year marriage which resulted in the gift from God of beautiful children can be a focus of deep gratitude. That this can be cherished despite the dynamics which ultimately ended the relationship. I have not seen an author address this aspect of healing, though I think it deserves an entire chapter.

Highly recommend
