Download or read book The Narc Decoder written by Tina Swithin and published by . This book was released on 2016-02-22 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divorcing a narcissist? You are probably left feeling baffled and shaken by the communication that you receive from the narcissist. In my mid-twenties, I contemplated learning multiple foreign languages. I envisioned dabbling in French to successfully make my way around Paris or Irish Gaelic to explore the rich history of Ireland along with my deep ancestral roots in that country. My day dreams about learning new languages always went hand in hand with the imagery of world travel. The thought of exploring exotic and old world places far away from home intrigued me. My mind summoned several foreign adventures, but never did I think I would need to learn a foreign language to navigate my own life. In 2008, I heard the words, "Narcissistic Personality Disorder" (NPD) to describe my then-husband, Seth. It took a couple years for the reality of those three little words to really sink in. Looking back, the red flags had been waving in the wind since our very first date. Those flags grew taller and more vibrant in color during our marriage. As it turns out, those same red flags that had been lining my path for years were dipped in a highly flammable mixture of kerosene. I realized the danger only when they exploded near the end of my marriage. Like any unexpected explosion, I was unprepared and left nursing deep, emotional, third-degree burns. In my research, I discovered a new language which took quite a bit of studying and insight on NPD to understand. As it turns out, the reason that I was so bewildered by Seth's communication style was that we were speaking completely different languages. I spoke the English version of "human" while he was speaking the non-human "Narc-ish." I am convinced there is a Narc-ish dictionary or manual hidden deep in a dark, musty hole somewhere in a faraway land with step-by-step instructions on how to inflict fear, confusion and despair. From this land, narcissists hail. Their secret language can only be decoded by those who aren't fooled by the narcissist's stealth ability to inflict confusion and chaos with it. My computer has a feature that allows me to translate most languages. However, this particular area of my life requires technology that is a bit savvier. Need is the catalyst of industry: and I was in need of a device to decipher Narc-ish. So, I invented one. I call it the "Narc Decoder" and have made life-altering good use of it. The good news is, everyone has access to the Narc Decoder because it is a machine that I am honored to replicate and share with anyone who is forced to communicate with a narcissist. Once you understand how to use the Narc Decoder, your life will change for the better. You will become empowered and will regain your voice. Over time, you will begin to find humor in the communication style that once left you on your knees begging for mercy.

Book excerpt: Tina Swithin was swept off her feet by a modern day Prince Charming and married him one year later. Tina soon discovered that there was something seriously wrong with her fairytale. The marriage was filled with lies, deception, fraud and many tears. Tina was left in an utter state of confusion. This wasn't the man that she married...or was it? Tina first heard the term, Narcissistic Personality Disorder from her therapist in 2008 but quickly dismissed the notion that something could be wrong with her husband. It took several years for Tina to begin researching the disorder and suddenly, the past ten years of her life made complete sense. Tina soon discovered that there is only one thing more difficult than being married to a narcissist and that is divorcing a narcissist. In her book, Tina will explain how a smart, independent woman can fall prey to a narcissistic man. Tina discusses the red flag reflections that she chose to ignore while dating and during the marriage. Tina acted as her own attorney in an extremely high-conflict divorce and she will share the strategies that helped her to navigate through this battle while maintaining her sanity and sense of humor. Tina will help you to feel less alone in your journey and will assure you that there is light at the end of the tunnel no matter how dark things are right now.

Download or read book Divorcing and Co parenting with a Narcissist written by Amanda Lynn and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-14 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to learn how to deal with divorcing a narcissist and the co-parenting? If yes, then keep reading... Maybe you've picked up this book because you think that your partner might be a narcissist; you might have a few inklings that this could be the case, but you want to learn more to ensure whether or not this really is the case. ◆ Information gives you power, and knowledge allows you to make solid and firm decisions that you're not always thinking back over and wondering whether you made the right choice.◆ When you choose to leave a narcissist, married or not, you're going to have times when you wonder whether you did the right thing or not. This is because you're going to be subjected to either a constant bombardment of charm, or you might end up with the opposite - a constant bombardment of blame and abuse. Depending upon which option you face, depends on how you feel during the process. Narcissistic Personality Disorder, or NPD, is a recognized personality disorder that falls under the mental health spectrum or umbrella. Whilst there are many people walking the streets who have very strong narcissistic traits, they may not meet all the criteria to be completely diagnosed with NPD itself. The issue is also complicated by the fact that most narcissists truly believe there is nothing wrong with them, so they're never going to reach out for help and will therefore never be diagnosed. Can you see what we're dealing with here? This book covers the following topics: Definition of narcissism Causes of narcissistic personality disorder Healthy and extreme narcissism Types of narcissists Treatments for narcissistic personality disorder To escape from narcissist's manipulation Setting boundaries from a narcissist Narcissistic relationship pattern How did you fall for a narcissist? Things a narcissist will always do in a relationship The effects of narcissism and other anti-social personality disorders in childhood Gaslighting - how to avoid gaslight effect Divorcing a narcissist To choose a divorce attorney When to tell the kids about the divorce The information on rights Managing the trauma of your divorce How to get over them in real life The golden rules of shared and co-parenting Building a secure, safe home base in a two-home family Mistakes parents make when communicating with their co-parent What's best for the children? ...And much more Again, this type of therapy for NPD is extremely rare in take-up, because most narcissists do not believe they need treatment. If anything, narcissists believe there is something wrong with you, and not them. Of course, that's extremely far off the mark, but pushing that thought onto you is what they do best. There are many different types of narcissists, and there are varying degrees of severity. You might meet someone who is a very mild narcissist, and you only really notice their behavior occasionally.

Download or read book Raising Resilient Children with a Borderline or Narcissistic Parent written by Margalis Fjelstad and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being partnered with a narcissist or borderline personality can be hard enough, but learning how to shield children from the fallout is paramount. Here, the authors show readers how to manage parenting when a narcissistic or borderline partner is part of the equation. Life in a narcissistic family system is at best challenging, and too often filled with chaos, isolation, emotional outbursts, and rigid controlling behaviors. It is too often devoid of peace and emotional safety. In the worst outcomes, children in these families grow up with low self-worth, issues with trust and belonging, and a lack of self-compassion. They are at significant risk of carrying the cycle forward and having poor adult relationships. This book offers a way to intervene and disrupt the cycle of negative outcomes for children. Written by two family therapists who bring a combined total of sixty years of clinical practice with individuals and families, the book pulls no punches, giving clear-headed advice, easy to follow actions to help children, and an abundance of teaching examples. Instead of the doom and gloom scenarios often presented about life with a narcissist or borderline, this book provides a much more positive outlook, and most importantly, it offers hope and a path to an entirely different outcome for the family members. Supported by current research in neuroscience, mindfulness and parenting information, the book focuses on teaching resilience and self-compassion to raise emotionally healthy children, even in a narcissistic family system. It starts by helping parents get a clear understanding of what they face with a narcissistic or borderline partner. There is no room here for denial, but there are also many options to explore. It explains how and why the narcissistic family system functions so poorly for raising healthy children, and pinpoints the deficits while providing information on how to intervene more effectively for the benefit of the children. Using their years of experience, the authors present ideas for staying together as well as knowing when to leave the relationship and how best to do that. Emphasis throughout the book is on supporting and strengthening the reader with encouragement, concrete ideas, skills and compassionate understanding.
