Publisher's Summary

Malignant narcissism is a psychological disorder that's an extreme mix of narcissism, antisocial behavior, aggressiveness, and sadism. It has all of the characteristics of narcissism - but it takes them to the extreme.

I suffered at the hands of a malignant narcissist for seven years. I was emotionally tortured by his nasty, venomous words, his hateful behavior towards me, and his sadistic enjoyment of anything that upset me. For years I was under his control, systematically beaten down to the point where I had no perception of reality or self-worth. I was a shell of a human.

I wrote this book as a resource for anyone else who is suffering at the hands of a malignant narcissist. I want to offer not only healing words but also guide you through understanding the disorder in order to better help you deal with it. The book includes sections on:

  • Explaining what malignant narcissism is
  • Translating the language of a malignant narcissist
  • Discussing if a narcissist can ever change
  • The dangers of a malignant narcissist
  • The traits in you that the narcissist saw as "prey"
  • Trauma bonding
  • Escaping the narcissist

Through this audiobook, there are also stories from other survivors scattered between sections. These real-life experiences from those who've had to endure malignant narcissism serve to offer you some familiarity. Hearing the tales of others can give you inspiration and courage when you need it most.

To beat the narcissist, you need to really know the narcissist - and that's where this audiobook comes in.

On Point

It's a hard pill to swallow, but hearing the similarities and understanding the whys based on key personality traits was revealing. Pushing through the emotional trauma and breaking the cycle is important to move forward. The light at the end is knowing you'll be freed.

Learn your true value

This will cause pain, but pain that must be felt. There will be things you hear that you wish didn’t apply to you, but they do. I would say this is a must
read/listen. How could she? Why does/doesn’t she? What have I done to deserve this? Use this book as a tool to dig yourself out of the heart ache and trenches of being victimized by a malignant narcissist.

Great book

I am a family doctor who is coming out of a narcissistic relationship. I recommend listeners buy the 2-in-1 combined book which is this one bundled with "my narcissistic ex" as there are slight overlaps. Overall both books are fantastic.
