You Thought You were Safe from Abuse. . .

It is estimated that one out of every seven people in the world suffer from one or more of the Cluster B personality disorders. No matter if they suffer from anti-social, borderline, histrionic or narcissistic personality disorder; all emotional abusers have this in common: unhealthy, superficial, inappropriate or completely nonexistent human emotions and extremely abusive, erratic, dysfunctional and toxic behavior.

Emotional abusers use anger, aggression, deceit, exaggeration, seduction, manipulation and excessive emotion to get what they want and to hide who they really are. Most are so good at what they do, and so relentless at pursuing and achieving what they desire, that most of the time their victims won’t truly realize what is happening to them until they become so isolated, hurt, confused, and disoriented, that they lose all sense of reality and self-identity.

Emotional abuse can happen to anyone, but it is a personal hell through which no one should ever have to suffer. Honest, open, insightful and thoughtfully written from the first-hand experience and perspective of an abuse survivor, this book will not only help you identify behaviors that can lead to emotional abuse, but it will also give you the ability to recognize, avoid, escape and recover from its various forms, in all of its subtlety and expressions. It also provides an understanding of why people with Cluster B disorders do what they do, simultaneously shedding light on these disorders that are so often behind mental and emotional abuse.
