Publisher's summary

Why can't I be normal and happy like everyone else? Why do I always have problems? Why do I constantly feel as though I am not good enough? Why don't I love myself? Will I ever be loved?

Do these questions sound familiar?

A child who is abused by her parent will try to reduce the effects of the abuse on them, emotionally and psychologically, by scaling the abuse down. You might even find yourself trying to believe that you are not abused and that something happened which caused your mother to react abusively.

However, because many forms of narcissistic abuse, such as manipulation, slander, withholding, and emotional blackmail are not often discussed, people don’t think of these actions as abuse. Therefore, many children of narcissistic mothers don’t even realize that they are abused.

According to a recent study published on the American Journal of Psychiatry, someone with one or more indicators of childhood maltreatment had a chance of developing recurrent depression in later life around 2.27 times higher than that of people who had no history of maltreatment. Evidence suggests that childhood maltreatment may negatively affect not only the lifetime risk of depression but also clinically relevant measures of depression such as course of illness and treatment outcome.

Don’t you think it’s time to stop feeling guilty and inadequate?

Don’t you think you are mature enough to recognize how your narcissistic mother is still affecting your life, get her out of your head, and become who you really are?

I think, then, this book might help. I know you don’t need another book filled in with useless information. You just want to heal.

Here’s just a tiny fraction of what you’ll discover:

  • Ten signs of a narcissistic mother
  • Eleven signs of narcissistic abuse
  • Manipulative tactics
  • The effect on being raised as a daughter of a narcissistic mother
  • Ways how your narcissistic mother affects your mindset
  • Steps to allow your feelings to grow and accept them
  • Methods to learn the art of self-discipline
  • Self-compassion exercises
  • Ways to heal through mindful acts and thoughts
  • Ways to heal your subconscious mind
  • Six strategies to overcome anxiety
  • Ways to build the life you want, become the person you want to be

Your life is worth living, and you are an amazing person with great talents. Take the step to get yourself the help you need and deserve, so you can learn to understand narcissistic abuse, understand that you are a victim, and find ways to cope and overcome the abuse, so you can reach your full potential and live the best life possible.

I have to be honest: This won’t be easy, but I have been there and I have done that. That’s why I authored this book to help you get unstuck and transform your life forever. The decision is yours.

Fantastic book! I love it!

I am so happy I bought this book in my journey of healing my inner child. The author does such a great job on explaining about narcissistic mothers and so much on what she shared was relatable and also shed new light on areas I had not even pieced together yet. The narrator was a perfect fit and she does a wonderful job. I highly recommend this book to anyone, no matter what their past might be.

The book is good so far, great voice to read it

From my point of view I have been in tears since the beginning of how close it hits home and revels a lot that I knew but constantly pushed away because I always felt like the villain. 27 years old and wondering why my mom hates me so much but wanting to heal and learn to help myself. Its crazy how a book makes you feel less alone

Very Helpful w/ Healing

I started my journey into recovery (substance addiction) a few years ago and have continued to dig. This book is great - very informative and lets me know I am not alone or damaged beyond repair. The tone it is read in sounds very compassionate and the pace it is read at is very comforting. I am finding the book a very helpful tool in my healing tool box.

Eye opening

I knew very little about this topic. I was very suprised when I listened to some aspects that really refers to things actually happened to me, things I saw as "normal" back then. This book helped me to better understand myself. Thank you
