I thought I would share a few books I’ve been reading….
Narcissistic Lovers and The Manipulative Man
They must have been written about my husband..!!!
I am amazed at the similarities..
Just thought I’d share.
Debthanks Deb.
I’ve been thinking a lot about narcissism. I never thought about it all before all this happened to me and my sons. It just seems obvious now but I couldn’t see any of it as I went along. Whenever I questioned the arrogance or selfishness of him and his mother, I was chastised by others or put down by the two of them. I wish I could have had one person say “that’s right, Diane, it is selfish and wrong”. Just one person.Now I feel like I see it everywhere. The pendulum does swing doesn’t it?
I think reading and learning about narcissism is very important to decode these men and understand the abnormal tools they use to survive and to manipulate
I Am going to look those books up
I also read A book called disarming the narcissist , a great book I would recommend for you to read as wellMy therapist told me I am not allowed to read anymore books about his problems!!! So I may have that kindle smashing party sooner than I thought!
here’s a good one
the language of emotions by karla mclaren.
i can’t express how much it has helped me to understand my emotions, how they protect me.
yes smart therapist. i don’t want to know anymore about compulsive behaviour, i get it.
for those of you that are new to these horrors, learning about SA is invaluable. don’t get us wrong, it’s still worth it to understand.
but there comes a time when you know enough to simply know its really fucked up. and that OUR lives are the ones worth focusing on.
