Book excerpt: Buy the Paperback Version of this Book on Amazon.com and get the Kindle Book version for FREE If you feel overwhelmed by living with a narcissistic mother or cannot get rid of the trauma, then keep reading.. Helping a person with narcissism to heal is a challenging endeavor. You need to come up with a strategy to internalize and practice what you learn in this book. While you are working within this relationship, make sure you take care of yourself. This is important and requires respect for the model to work. Consult frequently. After each meeting, debrief. Exercise your health and wellbeing and take care of it. Do not customize the activities of narcissistic individuals. Inside you will find an in-depth analysis of the disorder to enhance your understanding about it. As a result, you may change your perception about it and eventually view the victims differently. Similarly, a clear understanding puts off the myths and misconceptions associated with Narcissistic Personality Disorder and gain grounds to support you in case of bullying or misinformation. Anyone can go through this and no one should be discriminated for such an experience. Mothers with Narcissistic Personality Disorder are more likely to seek therapy if they see it as a means to mend relationships. An important barrier to obtaining adequate professional therapy for narcissistic personality disorder arises from the nature of the disorder itself, as those afflicted with it are often unwilling or even unable to acknowledge the problem's presence. A significant first step in promoting someone with NPD to undergo therapy is to convince them that the issue needs to be addressed. Keep in mind that it can be hard to circumvent someone with NPDs defense mechanisms and persuade them of the need for therapy. Approaching the situation without judgment or blame is useful and acknowledging that recovery is likely to be a long and continuous method. Only then will we be able to recognize our children, especially daughters, for who they are and help them achieve their complete, distinctive potential. Inside you will find: - In-depth analysis of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) that includes cause and treatment. - The different faces of narcissism and their distinct characteristics - Common characteristics of NPD and how to tell the extent of the disorder. - The roles that fathers should play to protect their daughters from narcissistic mothers. - Effects that you might experience in case your narcissistic mother is harsh on you and if nothing is done to stop it. - How the disorder affects your relationship with your mother both in the short and long term - Various ways that have proven to treat the disorder and how to go about them - How easy and feasible ending the narcissism legacy is.

The issue of toxic mothers undeniably challenges the status quo in various ways, but most certainly needs to be addressed. Adult children of narcissistic parents are often plagued with such an abundance of guilt and sense of deep obligation and shame that it causes them to feel duty-bound to keep whatever happened in the family secret, even when it is destroying their lives. It's really difficult to share your experience in this case, because narcissists, and especially a narcissistic mother, can be very good at creating the perfect family image for outsiders looking in. The solution is not forgiving or forgetting. You should understand your situation and work on your self-development in order to take back control of your life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you a son with a narcissist mother and emotionally immature parents? Do you want healing and recovery from emotional abuse.? If yes, then keep reading... Men that grow up with a narcissistic mother have almost definitely suffered from emotional abuse. It is shown in just about every one of the narcissist's actions. They will truly try to control you and make you feel as if you are nothing. Recovering from this and learning how to deal with it can be difficult but there are definitely ways that you can protect yourself from further emotional abuse. Most people are very familiar with what physical abuse is as it's easy to see and it, unfortunately, runs rampant around the world. Emotional or mental abuse can be harder to pinpoint. It can happen at any point in our lives and is just as detrimental, if not more detrimental, then physical abuse. Perhaps someone abused your trust to the point where your entire reality was flipped upside-down and inside out, leaving you with deep doubts and confusion that threaten your very perception of what's real and what's not. You lost trust in yourself, others, and likely even the universe/god. The repetitive experience of fear, terror, deceit, betrayal, and loneliness has shaped your life in some major way after narcissistic abuse. It's normal that your trust has been wounded and the good news is that it can be recovered. After months or years of abuse, your sense of trust is deeply damaged.

There are mothers, in the traditional sense of the word "mother", who would do anything for their children, irrespective of whether they are young or old with families of their own. And then there are narcissistic mothers, who are the complete opposite of 'traditional mothers'; lying, manipulative, always wanting to get their way, always striving to become the center of attention, always turning things around to be about them, never apologetic, never taking responsibility and much more. If your mother falls in the 2nd category, you know just how tiring, helpless and thankless your relationship with her can get. And the guilt and sense of obligation you may feel as an adult child could literally drive you nuts, as you feel the need to keep everything secret and maintain the rosy image that your narcissistic mother has held for years!

How can you spot her manipulative and narcissistic strategies from getting through to you?

And even if you become a parent, it can be hard to know how to parent your children; because you have nothing to guide you on how to parent your children properly.
