Being in a relationship with a narcissist is like being on a roller coaster ride that never ends. One moment, you feel loved and adored. The next, you can't do anything right, and nothing you do is good enough. Narcissists have often been described as having a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde personality. They are unpredictable and unstable. You find yourself walking on eggshells around them, worrying about what may set them off next. If you're in a relationship with a narcissist, it's critical you understand the pathology of their personality and why a relationship with them will inevitably drain, exhaust and confound you. Underneath the flashy exterior of the narcissist is a fragile ego, which requires constant attention and validation. The implications this has on a relationship are far more damaging than you may realize. The narcissist will only cause you pain because they are incapable of love and terrified of intimacy. They will push you away when your relationship becomes too serious, and manipulate and abuse you, for as long as you allow it, or fail to recognize it. In the beginning, they put on a brilliant act to secure your love. However, the only reason they enter into a relationship is to ensure they have a constant source of narcissistic supply (i.e. YOU) to stroke their insatiable ego and indulge their obsession with themselves. They are secretly sadistic and enjoy frustrating you. You need answers to understand why this relationship is so difficult, yet intoxicating, at the same time. Surviving the Narcissist provides the answers to these questions and more: What is a pathological narcissist? Why can't they love or accept love? Why do they dread intimacy? What is gaslighting ? Why do they keep coming back? Why can't I stay away? In addition, The Six Steps and Seven Mantras within this book help you reconnect with yourself on a deep level and begin to practice the kind of self-love you deserve. Take back control of your life and get on The Path Forward to self-discovery, peace and happiness now.
