Narcissism: Learning To Find Peace Following A Toxic Relationship With Psychopaths And Antisocial (Abuse That Is Emotional And Nar (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781837875054)

Narcissism is a mental disorder that can be complex and difficult to understand, but it is important to be aware of its effects and be vigilant.

Most likely, you have been strategically trauma-bonded to a narcissist for a considerable amount of time while existing in a false reality.The casual use of the term "narcissist" has led many people to believe erroneously that a narcissist is simply someone with an inflated sense of self-confidence and possibly an inflated ego as well. Unfortunately, this misconception is reinforced by the dictionary's definition of a narcissist as "a person who has an excessive interest in or admiration of themselves." This is more apt to be the definition of an arrogant person than a narcissistic person. The reality of a narcissist is significantly harsher.

Covert narcissists seek high-status positions, which they intend to acquire through their considerable influence. However, they disguise themselves with modesty in order to conceal their inner character, which reveals their true emotions and intentions. Being praised for their actions is the driving force behind their actions. Regardless of the circumstances that may exist at such a time, their primary objective is to achieve the initial objectives they have established, and there is no turning back.
