Mental Illness

This a purposefully short book that contains powerful messages. It is like having a good and genuine friend by your side. Written by a therapist with many, many years of practical experience in the resolution of problems such as these, what this book does is to turn sufferers into survivors and then those survivors into happy and fulfilled regular people. It shows how that wonderful, but fake, love affair is all about the narcissist and not you. They can only love themselves. That is narcissism, and it is a personality disorder.

Or are there identifiable influences that foster and encourage such behavior, influences that can be modified, reduced, and eliminated?

Ava Lee has lost everything there is to lose: Her parents. Her best friend. Her home. Even her face.
