Publisher's summary

It's okay to have needs of your own

You fell in love with him. But over time you've come to realize he's in love with himself - and you feel trapped. His needs, his problems, and his plans always seem to take precedence over yours. Dr. David Hawkins, director of the Marriage Recovery Center, offers a guide to help you identify signs of narcissism, understand how your loved one's issues are affecting you, and prepare a biblical game plan for freeing yourself to live courageously in light of God's love.

Whether the man in your life can be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), exhibits narcissistic traits and emotionally abusive behavior, or has arrogant and self-centered tendencies, the emotional pain he causes you is very real. Discover the truths, wisdom, and grace you need to spark change in your relationship, set boundaries, and experience healing.

Great book, love this author!!

This book covers a wide range of topics on emotional health. I highly recommend for both male and female genders to read. Great information about the importance of setting boundaries to protect yourself and others. My husband and I attended a marriage recovery intensive with Dr. Hawkins and was very pleased with the communication skills we learned while there. marriage recovery center.

An awesome insightful read!

I highly recommend this book!! I didn’t think it would even apply to me, but everything made so much sense after listening to this book. If you’re married to a stronger, louder, more opinionated spouse, it’s like turning a lightbulb on in your relationship, especially if you’re a quieter reserved type person.

Life changing

This book is life changing. I am only halfway thru it and had to come and leave a review. The wisdom is unmatched and the way in which he educated you on the topics is so relatable and measurable. He had found his calling, and I am grateful God has used this book to change my life and guide me to the freedom I have been longing for. I am going to find myself and live the life God gave me and stop only surviving it. THANK YOU!

Loved it!

Great insight on a complex subject. As a survivor of narcissistic emotional abuse I felt my feelings were validated and understood. This book helped me to put a name to certain things I thought I was the only one experiencing. I now feel I have a better understanding on how to set healthier boundaries.
