I suffer from NPD

This book really opened my open eyes on my situation and has help me take the correct steps to fix my NPD. Listening to this book gave me a different view of my NPD issues and made me reflect on my behaviors and how to correct them

Short but helpful.

This book was much shorter than I'd expected but had helpful information. Pretty basic info.

There is HOPE , IF the narcissist wants to change.

Great description of symptoms . If the narcissist is willing to get treatment , his world can change for the best . He can learn to recognize and appreciate kindness & love and even reciprocate. Whole families can benefit and heal if everyone will participate in treatment .

CLEAR CLINICAL PRECISION

Perfectly hit the spot. I was looking for an explanation and clinical discussion in accordance with the diagnosis manual and that's precisely what I got. Bravo.

Wish it were longer

Good information about NPD. However in my opinion it gives false hope as to having the ability to help them in any way. It's my experience that the advice given dosen't work.
Otherwise a very good book

Too short

Only scratched the surface and did not go particularly in depth. The tips on what to do were also high level.

Consice, Clear, Practical

This is clear in content and narration. It offers unambiguous detail about the disorder and how to cope with it from multiple perspectives.

confirmational

if really want to deal with troubling behaviors of NPD being the problem; this book simply excellent in breaking down, confirming and dentifying what needs to be recognized... and tips for tackling this distraction from healthy actions and suggests the work (when applied consistently) that can provide a happier life

Disappointed

Not a good read. Was not very descriptive. Only scratched the surfaces of the disorder.

Really more an article than a book. Very basic.

Short intro to the basic ideas. The suggested actions are more "soothing" than helpful. Disappointed.
