About this listen

Do you have a narcissist, sociopath, or psychopath in your life, or think that you might?

Do you continually feel anxious around someone in your life, but can’t pinpoint why?

Do conversations seem to go off track, leaving you feeling knocked off balance and confused?

Does it feel like they are making your life a living hell, but they insist that you are too sensitive, crazy, or to blame?

Perhaps you know you are being manipulated or abused, but don’t know how to make it stop. The Narcissist’s Playbook can help.

Some of the topics covered in The Narcissist’s Playbook are:

  • What manipulation is and isn’t.
  • How to spot manipulative behaviors early (and why most people struggle with this).
  • How and why people get caught up with manipulators, and why they have a hard time breaking free.
  • How to identify the emotional “hook” that is keeping you stuck in manipulation and what you can do about it.
  • How to effectively disable manipulation as it is happening.
  • How to identify the common personality traits that are frequently exploited by manipulators.

You can take back your life. The Narcissist’s Playbook tells you how.

I wish I had read this book decades ago! I found this book very informative and the information accessible. The use of stories woven throughout to illustrate the points were incredibly helpful. It certainly helped me identify patterns in my own life. A great book!

Extremely informative and well done

It's strange to say, but this book and Dana's other titles are like friends who are right there when I'm feeling weak or vulnerable. There are moments where I feel like I have overreacted or made a mountain out of a molehill and I start tumbling backward. I run, no walk to my audible files and flip on this audiobook. It has been indispensable in these early days having figured out what I was dealing with. Some of her stories are word for word the things I have heard for a long time. I have probably listened to three of her books half a dozen times or more. I highly recommend that if you think you are being abused by a narcissist you buy these books and keep them handy as you free yourself and arm yourself with tools and knowledge. There is quite a bit of repetition in these books, but I have found that to be a catalyst to engraining the learning. Thank you, Dana. Your books are literally saving my life.

Like a friend who is always there

No dislikes in this book. It is very simple and educations. Gives you a general overview of your possible relationship and allows you to reflect on yourself not just the other person. I wish I bought the hard copy to highlight important points. I always read the reviews before books therefore I hope this helps if anyone is looking for a very simple explanation on a toxic relationship whether it comes to work or personal.

Very educational
