Publisher's Summary

Those who have had a narcissistic parent can testify to how damaging it can be to one's psyche. Narcissistic parents lack empathy, show a severe sense of entitlement to micromanage the lives of their children, and often subject their children to neglect, as well as emotional, psychological, and physical abuse. From the unique challenges daughters of narcissistic fathers face to the ways in which adverse childhood experiences affect our brains, Shahida Arabi's insightful essays resonate deeply with those who have been raised by narcissistic parents. In this new essay collection, Arabi explores how narcissistic abuse in childhood can set us up for trauma repetition in adulthood, affecting how we navigate relationships, the self, and the world. She pinpoints the toxic traits and behaviors of narcissistic mothers and fathers, exposing how covert abuse insidiously plays out in these specific dynamics. She offers the essential tools, skill sets, and healing modalities for survivors who have undergone a lifetime's worth of abuse, helping them to break the cycle once and for all for future generations.

This book has changed my life

I have read nearly every single book on narcissistic personality disorder, relationships with narcissists and the very few books there are on the family dynamics in a narcissistically abusive family, and although some of them were informative, I found none of them really gave me answers in regards to being brought up in one of these families, I also found that none of them gave me the a-ha moment when being educated, where as this book, is BY FAR the most shockingly relatable, the most educational, the most accurate and the most helpful out of every one of the books I’ve read. I was so impressed im doing this book review, I’ve never once been so impressed with a book that I decided to write a review. Thank you to the author, I’ve needed a book like this for 15 years.
