Narcissistic Abuse
Summary
Are you the victim of a narcissist? Do you want to find out how to deal with abuse? Then, keep reading... Recovering from an abusive relationship requires a lot of effort on your part, and it probably took a lot of courage even to choose this book, and I commend you for that. It can be so overwhelming trying to understand different conditions you may be suffering from while trying to integrate back into a normal social lifestyle after the traumatic abuse you endured while in the relationship. Simple things such as communicating with others or making it through each day without questioning everything due to irrational thinking can make a recovery so difficult, but by forgiving yourself and taking every day one step at a time, you will finally begin to heal. Healing is a process, and you must remember it will not happen overnight. It may have been some time since you made your own decisions about your own future, and all of the possibilities can seem a bit overwhelming, overall. Figuring out which course of action is for you, while still being cautious so that you don’t fall right into the trap of another narcissist, is going to be critical with this one. And the thought of all these possibilities and what could happen in the future is enough to make you pause. A narcissist will always look for someone who can complement his or her traits. Opposites indeed attract, and the traits and characteristics - being independent, professionally successful, financially secure, fit, and strong - that you have cultivated will often draw a bad person instead of a good one. This does not mean you should stop being the best version of yourself. It just means that you must be aware of some warning signs so you know who you should attract and who you should keep at arm's length. This audiobook will focus on the following: Narcissistic abuse syndrome Narcissistic personality symptoms Traits that attract a narcissist Long-term effects of narcissistic abuse Ways for handling narcissistic abuse Steps to recover from a narcissist relationship Methods to set strong boundaries An understanding of how self-compassion opens the door to self-healing Ways to have a love affair with yourself Divorcing a narcissist Frequently asked questions And much more! Now, it's time to move on! If you are ready to create happy relationships and the life you deserve, scroll to the top and select the "buy now" button.

Nearness of You
Summary
A deeply personal story about what defines a mother from the critically acclaimed author of How to Be Lost and The Same Sky. In this profound and lyrical novel, acclaimed author Amanda Eyre Ward explores the deeper meanings of motherhood - from the first blissful hello to the heart-wrenching prospect of saying goodbye. Brilliant heart surgeon Suzette Kendall is stunned when Hyland, her husband of 15 years, admits his yearning for a child. From the beginning they'd decided that having children was not an option, as Suzette feared passing along the genes that landed her mother in a mental institution. But Hyland proposes a different idea: a baby via surrogate. Suzette agrees, and what follows is a whirlwind of candidate selections, hospital visits, and Suzette's doubts over whether she's made the right decision. A young woman named Dorothy Muscarello is chosen as the one who will help make this family complete. For Dorrie, surrogacy (and the money that comes with it) are her opportunity to leave behind a troubled past and create a future for herself - one full of possibility. But this situation also forces all three of them - Dorrie, Suzette, and Hyland - to face a devastating uncertainty that will reverberate in the years to come. Beautifully shifting between perspectives, The Nearness of You deftly explores the connections we form, the families we create, and the love we hold most dear.
