THE WINNER OF THE 2024 ROBINSON NEW VOICES AWARD Anyone who has experienced bullying, coercive control or narcissistic abuse may know what it is like to be fearful, anxious, angry, confused, guilt-ridden, grief-stricken, self-doubting and so much more. It can feel like a tsunami engulfing the mind and body - and the subsequent pain is very real. This minefield of sensations, thoughts, urges and feelings can feel impossible to navigate. This book offers you a road map and provides the skills and tools you need to see the path ahead more clearly. Using evidence-based and trauma-focused acceptance and commitment therapy, you will be guided through the FOG of your fears and feelings of obligation and guilt, so that you can focus on living the life you value. This book is relevant not just for people who have been in intimate romantic relationships with individuals who have narcissistic traits but also for anyone who has experienced narcissistic abuse at the hands of a child, sibling, other family member, work colleague or friend.
