Resumen del Editor

Some difficult people aren't just hard to deal with - they're dangerous.

Do you know someone whose moods swing wildly? Do they act unreasonably suspicious or antagonistic? Do they blame others for their own problems?

When a high-conflict person has one of five common personality disorders - borderline, narcissistic, paranoid, antisocial, or histrionic - they can lash out in risky extremes of emotion and aggression. And once an HCP decides to target you, they're hard to shake.

But there are ways to protect yourself. Using empathy-driven conflict management techniques, Bill Eddy, a lawyer and therapist with extensive mediation experience, will teach you to:

• Spot warning signs of the five high-conflict personalities in others and in yourself.
• Manage relationships with HCPs at work and in your private life.
• Safely avoid or end dangerous and stressful interactions with HCPs.

Filled with expert advice and real-life anecdotes, 5 Types of People Who Can Ruin Your Life is an essential guide to helping you escape negative relationships, build healthy connections, and safeguard your reputation and personal life in the process. And if you have a high-conflict personality, this book will help you help yourself.

Great Insight

Interesting and quick read

I am interested in personality, psychology and dynamics. Though this book is informative regarding all of this, it guides the reader to avoid these personalities, which I don’t agree with or find possible. People deserve community regardless of their genetic makeup, and what this book could be helpful with is being aware of those personalities that are more challenging and arming the reader with the knowledge of how to maintain healthy boundaries.

One of my favorite books

This was incredibly eye-opening. I think everybody should read this book. If you ever get caught up and drama and wonder how you get there, can read this book.

Everyone should listen and be aware of these personality types!

Informative, balanced & solution oriented. I highly recommend this book of you are dealing with a highly difficult person in any area of your life.

Eye Opening

This gave me deep insight to exactly what type of personality and that there were more than one, how to identify it and how to deal with it. it feels so amazing to know I'm not the one that's crazy and that all the things I thought my boyfriend of 11 years was doing intentionally.... WAS!
