The behavior of individuals with Narcissistic Personality Disorder generally defies logic but sadly, their tactics in the Family Court System often fool Judges, Commissioners, Attorneys, Minor's Counsel, Social Workers, Therapists and even trained Evaluators.

Author, Tina Swithin, understands what it's like to divorce a narcissist. Tina spent over four years on the battlefield of the Family Court System while acting as her own attorney in a desperate attempt to protect her two young daughters.

Download or read book How to Divorce a Narcissist and Succeed in the Family Court written by Diana Jordan and published by . This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaving a narcissist and going through the family court is likely to be the scariest thing you'll ever have to do. This book will be your trusted companion and guide to the practical, legal and emotional challenges you'll face along the way. It contains information you won't find elsewhere and it costs a fraction of the price of an hour with a solicitor. Narcissists form a disproportionate percentage of those who separate and divorce because they're not good at relationships. They tend to fall out with family members and work colleagues too and they can't be in an intimate relationship without lying, manipulating, shaming, confusing and controlling. This book is for you if you are: A woman or a man who is or was married or cohabiting Leaving, or thinking of leaving, a difficult or narcissistic partner A parent facing children proceedings in the family court Being alienated from you child Trying to co-parent with a narcissist In divorce and/or financial proceedings with a narcissist A litigant in person (self-representing) Represented by a solicitor and/or barrister The different types of narcissist are explained, including covert narcissists, sociopaths, and those with borderline personality disorder. You're likely to find yourself in court when you leave because you can't negotiate with a narcissist and there's no other way to resolve the disputes around your children and/or come to a financial settlement. The book helps you to set boundaries with the narcissist, communicate with them and manage their behaviour to mitigate its effects on you and your children. Unfortunately, most lawyers and judges don't understand the narcissist's disordered personality and try to settle these disputes in the same way as they do other cases. That doesn't work, and it will cost you a lot of time and money and play into the narcissist's aim to ensure you can't afford legal representation. The narcissist has to win and doesn't care how they do it or who they hurt on the way - and that includes their own children. Author Diana Jordan is a former solicitor and now works with people needing help through court proceedings against a narcissist. Many of her clients can't afford a lawyer and she has written this guide to the family court in England and Wales with the litigant in person very much in mind.

Download or read book Was it My Fault written by Alana Sharps and published by Surthrive Tribe. This book was released on 2021-12 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm a survivor. For sixteen long years, I didn't believe I'd ever get to call myself that. Self-doubt, low self-esteem imposed on me by my abusive, narcissistic ex-husband, and fear held me hostage. I didn't recognize myself. Hope no longer existed. The stress and strain of just trying to live to see another day took a devastating toll on me physically, emotionally, and financially. My life was not my own, and I was tired of it. At my core, I knew I had to fight back, but after living in such a toxic environment, I wasn't sure it would make a difference. Thankfully, I summoned the courage. Call it dumb luck, an epiphany, or a sheer desire to shield my children from any more trauma, I left. Unfortunately, the abuse didn't end when I closed that chapter of my life. The next chapter invited a different form of abuse into my life in the form of dubious legal tactics, mean-spirited counter-parenting, battling false parental alienation claims, and harassment replaced the abuse I endured when we lived under the same roof. But, I had changed. Leaving left me feeling more empowered. Slowly, I saw my worth and understood that my freedom from my ex was what I needed to not only survive but thrive. Was It My Fault? is my story. In it, I share intimate details of my toxic marriage, but more than that, I share my journey out of the depths of despair and how I continue to fight for myself and my children post-separation. It's my hope that my story will inspire someone who may be in a toxic relationship and feeling like they have no fight left in them to not give up and find a path forward.
