Amazing!

If there’s someone in your life with BPD or NPD, this book is for you! It’s very thorough and comprehensive. My only issue is that the narrator sounds like a robot.

Freedom! Wish I had found this sooner.

Extremely insightful and cheaper than a therapist. I found the suggestions in the book to be practical and helpful. Now to use them in real life…

Gold for anyone with narcissistic/BPD in their life

This is gold

It was traumatizing for me when I first tried to read it. I don’t know why, but I put it down & didn’t continue reading until 2 years later.

I am glad I got through it. It explained everything about the BPD/narcs in my life as if the author knew my exact story & met everyone. It was scary accurate.

Finally & thankfully the author gives concrete steps to get out of the situations.

Wish me luck as I go through them. I will need to reread this a few times to take in everything. Especially the recovery chapters.

If you have people like this in your life; Read this book. I’ve read 3-4 other books & nothing beats this one so far.


Hopefully you don’t react like I did.

Good luck. Hopefully this helps you live the life you want.

Exactly what I Needed!

This book literally explained everything I needed to understand myself even deeper and to get myself out of these care taker/ drama triangle roles. Will be listening a few times more!!
