Publisher's summary

Do you have a narcissist, sociopath, or psychopath in your life, or think that you might?

Do you continually feel anxious around someone in your life, but can’t pinpoint why?

Do conversations seem to go off track, leaving you feeling knocked off balance and confused?

Does it feel like they are making your life a living hell, but they insist that you are too sensitive, crazy, or to blame?

Perhaps you know you are being manipulated or abused, but don’t know how to make it stop. The Narcissist’s Playbook can help.

Some of the topics covered in The Narcissist’s Playbook are:

  • What manipulation is and isn’t.
  • How to spot manipulative behaviors early (and why most people struggle with this).
  • How and why people get caught up with manipulators, and why they have a hard time breaking free.
  • How to identify the emotional “hook” that is keeping you stuck in manipulation and what you can do about it.
  • How to effectively disable manipulation as it is happening.
  • How to identify the common personality traits that are frequently exploited by manipulators.

You can take back your life. The Narcissist’s Playbook tells you how.

This is simply a very excellent book!

I am not going to gush, but say truly that you will be exposed to very helpful information and ideas, and gain incredible insight to problematic persons and behaviors; all of which will enhance your understanding, and facilitate your protection and or recovery from abuse and manipulation. The book is really well written and narrated masterfully by the same person. Highly recommended!!!

Clarifying and informative

This book is informative, clarifying, and anchoring for anyone walking through a toxic relationship. I am beginning to see many manipulation tactics that have plagued me for years and feel more empowered and aware. I highly recommend this book for anyone untangling toxic relationships in their life.
