Narcissists Exposed - 75 Things Narcissists Don't Want You to Know: 75 Things Narcissists Don't Want You to Know

This is a great book for anyone who has or are involved with a narcissist and has questions. After manipulating my actions, my husband of 34ys cleaned out our house & accounts to move in with his married gf without a word. He then manipulated our children to disown me. He is an extreme, covert, abusive, alcoholic narcissist who uses our children as his flying monkeys. But, even now I still love and devote my life to. In an interview for publication he even stated what a great job I did raising our children and how proud he was..... and then he was gone with everything & never a word. I've been through Hell with him. I suffered physical, emotional, mental, financial abuse to the point that I have had to have half my neck rebuilt and my spleen was damaged amongst other injuries and now am forced to live in a 20' camper. His preference if legal would have been to have took me out & shoot me in the head. I live in fear of him every day. This book helped me a lot. And as I said it answered a lot of questions. It also has a lot of resources for people who are or have encountered a narcissist. Even if you haven't, you should read this so you don't end up like me.

If you ever wondered if you mother was a narc...this is the book for you! Great read!! It would be the first book in her series that I would recommend you read first. You may see yourself there, but that's because we are a little narc. However, if you were raised by one, they are on every page. Read it, then read it again! I have read it 4 times already. My mother is there on every page. It gave me my AHA! moment. I finally realized that there was no pleasing her no matter what I did and it was when I knew it wasn't me, it was her throughout the entire book. Now I have stopped all contact and I am finally happy. Thank you for writing this, it was what I needed to begin healing and made it easy to separate myself from her toxic personality. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have given me permission to live my own life with your words.

If you are uncertain if you are dealing with a narcissist, this is a good place to start. This book is very introductory in it’s presentation and very much to the point.

Although this book may read as quite aggressively unkind towards the narcissist it could be exactly what you are looking for. Both narcissists and co-dependents do not live close enough to objective reality, and sometimes a sharp kick of awakening is required to change the situation.I first came across the book when reading the authors website when searching on the internet. I was surprised just how many of the statements rang true. This intrigued me to get the book which I read in about 24-48 hours with ease. It connected with me on a deep level, the part of me that was unhappy with my own situation and was looking for some answers. Reading this book is like getting the battle plans for the enemy general, a must have for a recurring victim of a narcissist. It really helped me to put a stop to some of the painful cycles that kept reoccurring.This book will not give you any long term ideas or expand much upon the theme. At times the authors own pain and resentment did shine through the written word, but this just made it more real. I would say this book is a great starting point for those wishing to understand a narcissist, and will help a co-dependent to escape the traps they keep falling for. However, you may wish to supplement with more in depth and researched reading once you get over the initial eye-opening first steps.

'Forewarned is Forearmed', be prepared to protect yourself in and outside of the workplace. Don't be surprised if the narcissist keep their mentality long after you recognized what they were doing to you. They just do it to the next victim they want to control, no matter what.

Very basic information. I already knew all of this information from online research. Interesting but zero depth and was not worth the price in my opinion.

Going thru a nasty divorce and custody battle I couldn't understand how vicious my ex was. After all he got what he wanted but destroying me was next on his list. I couldn't "get" what his deal was. Once I figured that he has NPD big time the next question was "how do I as a normal person deal with him in relation to the kids?" This book answered every question I had and many I didn't think to ask. It also validated my thoughts and emotions. While yes this whole divorce thing sucked and all that, this book empowered me by gaining an understanding of what took place and more importantly how to deal with him.This book is easy to read (I finished it in a day) and so to the point. No BS. No fluff. Just the 75 things that you NEED to know. You will be glad you got this book. I am in such a better place of understanding now than I was 24 hrs ago!

Not comprehensive by any means, but this book is more of a highlight, or the summary version, into the world of NPD. I’m the victim of a NPD spouse, and this book definitely validated many of the things I’ve endured over the past 30 years. I certainly have much more to learn about NPD and, more importantly, how to rise above the blame-shifting and gaslighting. The more I can learn about my spouse, the better I can separate myself from the abuse. I want to learn to stop being his victim and take responsibility for my emotions and unrealistic expectations of a relationship that will never be what I need.

VERY INFORMATIVE AND HELPFUL

Perhaps the brevity bugged me and the fact that it was like a series of topical pamphlets...

Very incisive read , factual and direct a must have for anyone who has reservations and the person they are involved with.There are some excellent books out there on this topic ive read about six already and each one was spot on about the man i was with for the wasted 2 years of my life.The vanity, the " i no better" attitude , the constant idealisation the devaluation .If you feel that you when your with this person your just there for convenience then your probably right get out whilst you can, i did , the final straw will come i promise when you cant take anymore your life will improve ten fold when you " get rid " ,

Enlightening

Good summary of narcissist behaviours.
