Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The term narcissistic is often thrown around loosely to describe vanity and self-absorption. However, people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder have a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, excessive need for admiration, and lack of empathy. #2 Narcissistic partners engage in chronic manipulation and devaluation of their victims, leaving victims feeling worthless, anxious, and even suicidal. This type of continual manipulation is known as narcissistic abuse. #3 Narcissists are abusive towards their partners for several reasons. They are over-critical and controlling, they put down their partners, they are physically and/or sexually abusive, and they create hostile or aggressive situations where their partners feel trapped and controlled. #4 Malignant narcissists are dangerous, but partners who display even some of these behaviors and refuse to change do not need the diagnosis of NPD for victims to recognize that they have a toxic relationship partner.

They expect special treatment they have not earned, and they expect complete obedience from others.
