Take Back Your Life: 103 Highly-Effective Strategies to Snuff Out a Narcissist’s Gaslighting and Enjoy the Happy Life You Really Deserve (Detoxifying Your Life Book 3) Mar 15, 2015

**SECOND EDITION: UPDATED 2018**

Are You Being Gaslighted?

You’re at a party and you notice your husband getting a bit too close to another woman. After the party, you confront him. He tells you to stop being so insecure and controlling; that he’s his own man and if you don’t like it, you shouldn’t have acted like that in the first place. After arguing all night, you end up begging for forgiveness and apologize for the trouble.

Maybe it’s your mom - she’s picking on you like it’s a sport. She’s worried about what you’re wearing, what you’re eating - who you’re hanging out with - but it’s unhealthy. Instead of fighting back, you just suck it up and take it - maybe you’re too sensitive, or perhaps you really are crazy after all. Who can’t take a bit of criticism, anyway?

Or it’s your boss, who told you that you had her support on your latest project, only to backpedal when it’s time to present it to the team. Suddenly, she criticizes you for your poor choices and she’s jumped ship - but when you talk to her later, she tells you it was wrong from the beginning and you need to be more careful in the future. You find yourself wondering if your judgment might really be flawed, after all.

Maybe this stuff doesn’t happen in your life, but for many people, it’s an everyday reality. If you think it could never be you, think again! Some of the most intelligent and capable people are living in painfully toxic relationships with narcissists, and they’re plagued by regular bouts of gaslighting, an insidious form of emotional abuse and manipulation that can be crueler than more obvious forms of abuse because it sort of sneaks up on you.

Because of its insidious nature, gaslighting is one form of emotional abuse that is hard to recognize and even more challenging to break free from. Part of that is because the narcissist exploits one of our greatest fears - the fear of being alone.

This book offers a comprehensive plan for dealing with gaslighting and other forms of narcissistic abuse.

Inside you’ll find all kinds of tools to help you snuff out gaslighting and toxic emotional abuse, including the following.

Are you in a relationship with someone who makes you feel crazy and "not good enough" all the time?

Being involved with a narcissist can be a crazy roller-coaster ride of emotions - from the highest of the highs to the lowest of the lows.

Knowledge is power. Admitting the issue is the first step. Next, you'll learn to understand, identify and overcome the behaviors of the narcissist.

That's when you'll - and begin to heal - whether that means inside the relationship or by ending it.

So no more putting band-aids on this problem, alright? Stick with me and we will get this figured out together.

Your Love is My Drug: How to Shut Down a Narcissist, Detoxify Your Relationships & Live the Awesome Life You Really Deserve, Starting Right Now Jan 23, 2015

**Second Edition, Updated 2019**
Are you tired of feeling like you're not good enough? Do you wish that someone in your life would just put your feelings first, for once? Or maybe just to consider you at all?

Tired of being told you're the crazy one as you deal with mind games at home or work? You might just be involved with a narcissist.

Narcissists are abusers – but they don’t usually beat their victims physically. No, narcissists are sneaky - they're much more insidious in their form of abuse.

When you think of someone in an abusive relationship, you think of someone who is getting beaten and battered on a regular basis, right? But while domestic violence is heartbreaking and unacceptable, there’s another form of abuse that might be even more dangerous.

But even though you can’t always see physical evidence of abuse, the kind of overwhelming, all-consuming emotional abuse inflicted on the victims of narcissists is a form of aggression that should also be recognized.

The soul-crushing kind of abuse that is inflicted on the people who love a narcissist might not be visible to the naked eye, but it can leave devastating emotional scars that never go away. Most people have no idea how much the “sources” of narcissistic supply suffer in their relationships – and yet when these victims speak up, people often mistake them for whiners and dismiss their pain.

This, of course, leaves them confused and blaming themselves for everything that is wrong in their lives.

This book offers a in-depth guide to surviving and thriving during and after life with a narcissist, in whatever degree necessary for your life. You'll learn to recognize narcissism in those around you, plus how to identify and stop typical manipulation techniques, such as gaslighting, in their tracks.

Find out how to start focusing on what you want and need first, and learn how to stop feeling like you're not good enough. You'll find out how to choose your new reality and sharpen your skills for coping with anxiety and stress.

How do you know if you’re in a relationship with a narcissist?

Ask yourself: is there someone in your life always puts their own feelings, needs and wants ahead of yours – someone who never seems bothered to ask how you feel about anything?

In these pages, Author and Certified Life Coach Angela Atkinson, herself a survivor of narcissistic relationships, offers insight from both personal experience and professional understanding. In addition to giving you tips and tools to understand and handle the toxic people in your life, Atkinson shares practical insight into the workings of a narcissistic mind and serves up proven techniques for handling encounters with your narcissists. Plus, you’ll learn how to redefine yourself as an individual and start on the path of rediscovering yourself and your own identity.

This book doesn’t ask you to do anything you’re not ready to do, and it’s not going to tell you to end the relationship no matter what. Instead, it offers a detailed blueprint on various options you have to deal with the toxic relationships in your life and helps you to learn how to take the upper hand with narcissists and come out on top.

Ever feel like you're dead inside? Many victims of narcissistic abuse report that they feelove numb and emotionless - dead inside.

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you might be in a relationship with a narcissist.

Whether you're a family member, friend or a romantic partner, becoming a "narcissistic extension" leads to your becoming the primary source of narcissistic supply.

This book offers a in-depth guide to surviving and thriving during and after life with a narcissist, in whatever degree necessary for your life. You'll learn to recognize narcissism in those around you, plus how to identify and stop typical manipulation techniques, such as gaslighting, in their tracks.

Find out how to start focusing on what you want and need first, and learn how to stop feeling like you're not good enough. You'll find out how to choose your new reality and sharpen your skills for coping with anxiety and stress.

Plus: You'll get two supplemental appendixes, including one that offers a series of Affirmations & Reflections to help reinforce the lessons learned, plus a series of letters and personal advice on narcissism and much more.

You've heard of narcissism, but do you know what narcissistic abuse means? Here's the truth. Within every culture, race, religion, income bracket and country, there are abusive, toxic people hiding in plain sight. They are part of your family, you're married to them; you work with them. They might be your friends, part of your family of worship and your neighbors. The spectrum of toxicity is broad, and when cluster B personality types are involved, it gets more complicated.

When you're dealing with a narcissist in any type of relationship, you're bound to be dealing with a subtle form of psychological abuse that no one wants to talk about. You can walk down the street and look perfectly normal - this kind of abuse doesn't leave bruises and it doesn't leave broken bones. But it leaves scars that feel like they'll never go away.

Toxic people play mind games with you. They put you down in sneaky ways that are hard for outsiders to detect. They triangulate you with others, isolate you from your friends and your family. They use gaslighting and projection to control and manipulate you. Even worse, they are rarely held accountable for this deplorable behavior. The narcissistic abuse cycle typically includes a love-bombing or idealization phase, followed by a devalue phase, rounded out by a discard phase. Often, the cycle begins again when the narcissist hoovers you - or sucks you back in. In some cases, this goes on for decades.

Angie Atkinson, a certified life coach, author and YouTube creator, is also a survivor of narcissistic abuse. Atkinson's work has been touted as some of the most accurate and easy-to-understand by survivors of narcissistic abuse, and she has long been recognized as the go-to expert on how to discover, understand and overcome narcissistic abuse in toxic relationships. She has helped thousands of survivors to discover, understand and overcome their own abuse, and now, she's teaching them how to evolve.

In this anthology, Angie has collected stories of survival from the "SPANily," a support group of survivors of narcissistic abuse. Inside, you'll find their true stories, from love-bombing to thriving - and everything in between. Plus, Angie and the SPANily offer their personal advice on how to go from being a victim of abuse to being a survivor and then a thriver. You will find new insights on what it means to heal after the long-game trauma inflicted by narcissists.

You are not powerless, dear survivor, and you are not alone.

Angie hopes that by sharing the voices of survivors of narcissistic abuse, you can be inspired to become the healthy, evolving thriver you were meant to be - and maybe, one who will change the course of history by ending the cycle of abuse in your own family moving forward. One person truly can create a difference in the world, but by bringing these amazing voices together in this anthology, Angie hopes to spark widespread, meaningful change that spans generations.

Compiled & Co-Authored by Angela Atkinson, Featuring Insight & Stories by Colleen Brosnan, Lise Colucci, Jillian Tindall, Esq., James LaCroix, Andy Maycen, Annabel Holguin, Palma Mingozzi, Rebecca McGranahan, Shermonicia Slaughter, Angelena Lewis, Blair Botelho, Jennifer Primo, Phyllis Gilbert, Gable Young, Eva Leigh, Dita, Nelly Juma, and Anonymous.
