The Wizard of Oz and Other Narcissists: Coping with the One-way Relationship in Work, Love, and Family | Eleanor D. Payson
14 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
"Disguised as high self-esteem, narcissism is actually a destrucitve form of self-love or extreme self-absorption. Soon the lion's share of attention and resources are going in one direction--towards the narcissist. When involved with the narcissist, the damage to your own self-esteem can be enormous, resulting in chronic anger, depression, and feelings of helplessness"--Back cover.

I just got out of a relationship with a narcissist, and I spent much of this book shouting, "YES, YES, SO MUCH THIS!" It helped me understand his motivations and behaviors, and it also helped me start to understand myself. I feel less alone and crazy having read this, which is never a bad thing.

Oh my god. Two chapters in and I already feel intense relief - it wasn't ME.
