Ramani Durvasula: The problem is not in you
Recognizing narcissists and healing from narcissistic relationships.
It is not easy to recognize narcissists. One moment they draw you in with their confidence and charisma, and the next they trample your confidence and leave you wondering, "What could I have done differently?"
As Dr. Ramani Durvasula reveals in It's Not You, the answer is: absolutely nothing. Just like a tiger cannot change its patterns, a narcissist will not stop manipulating you and belittling you. In order to heal and protect yourself from future hurt, you must first accept that it is not your fault.
Drawing on more than twenty years of studying and helping clients navigate the world of narcissism, Dr. Ramani Durvasula shows how to recognize narcissists and how to protect yourself from their toxic influence. Thanks to this book, you will become resistant to gaslighting, you will free yourself from traumas that keep you trapped in unhealthy relationships, you will not grieve over losses, you will set realistic expectations and after years of humiliation, you will come back to yourself.
