As the daughter of a narssasist this is a Bible.

Since the age of 7 ive been pulling out all of my hair without understanding why. I had no idea i was in such deep emotional pain.
This book is beautifully read and its contents have helped me accept and recognise the problem of my upbringing, the impact thats had and how its shaped me. Furthermore it takes the listener on a journey of self healing and recognising the traits we may be unwittingly perpetuating. At 54 I now recognise both my parents as Narsassists and understand why i have never felt good enough. I'm going to be listening again and again to this pot of gold of information as I move along my journey to heal.
Thank you Karly McBride for writing this life changing book.

Brilliant

I cried in most of the chapters, it should have a by line saying 'prepare a box of tissues and chocolate for it'.
It helped my a lot just after the first read. I starting to understand I am not alone with this issues and debuts but, with time I can accept my feelings with out tears.
I owe my senaty in part of this book.
Thank you Dr Karyl McBride.

Epiphany after Epiphany!

I only recently discovered the name for my Mum's behaviour. I felt like I've been walking around for the last 40 years feeling incomplete, depressed, incapable and unloveable but not really being able to see why. While there are many books out there on helping daughters understand and heal from their mother's narcissism, this book is well worth a listen/read if you're starting out on your journey. The author sounds like the mother you never had and it took me weeks to actually finish listening to the audiobook because every paragraph was a new epiphany describing those locked up feelings we all would have had growing up in the toxic environments we did. It made me feel like I wasn't alone for the first time in my life - I wasn't making it up, it actually happened and it caused deep deep trauma. I'd highly recommend reading this book and I hope you know you're not alone. There are many of us out there walking the same path to recovery and I send you so much love x

You are worth it.

Really enjoyed this book. It was interesting, relating, clearly expressed and influential. We are not victims.. We are survivors. We live and learn something new everyday and through each generation. Mental Health and emotional regulation should be supported at puberty in primary schools and ongoing if needed as parents traits can be passed down or can leave a bitter taste for a long time. Let's make the change for a better tomorrow. Thankyou for this book.
