"How to Handle a Narcissist" is an informed guide to help you understand, handle and live with extreme narcissists. This spectral approach to narcissism combines the latest research with real-life stories and practical advice.
Research shows that the vast majority of people display self-enhancing tendencies to some degree or another, and that these tendencies maintain and promote healthy self-esteem. However, emotional abuse, gas-lighting and manipulation do not fall within the bounds of healthy narcissistic reactions. As we move up the narcissistic scale towards extreme narcissism, narcissistic behaviors start to harm those surrounding the narcissist, and often the narcissist's long-term outcomes.
This guide aims to give the reader enough objectivity to disengage from a damaging narcissist, build awareness and knowledge on the situation, and decide what to do from a position of informed clarity. Whether the narcissistic person in your life is your partner, family member, friend or co-worker, this book will help you to understand what you need to do to regain control of your boundaries, in order to guide the relationship in whichever direction is best for yourself and others.
Narcissists can make our lives decidedly hellish, but by understanding them and following a few simple steps we can take back control of our boundaries and empower ourselves when dealing with these harmful personalities.
