Does this describe your relationship?
Do you wonder if they will ever change?
Do you want to know why they lie so much...even when the truth would work better?

If so, you are not alone and this book is a great place to start.

How to create a safety plan if you are trying to leave.

Story
It’s not always easy to tell when you’re dealing with a narcissist. One day they draw you in with their confidence and charisma, the next they gaslight you, wreck your self-confidence, and leave you wondering, What could I have done differently? As Dr. Ramani Durvasula reveals in It's Not You, the answer is: absolutely nothing. Just as a tiger can’t change its stripes, a narcissist won’t stop manipulating and invalidating you. To heal in the aftermath of their abuse and protect yourself from future harm, you first have to accept that you are not to blame.

Dana saved my sanity
Back in 2018, I discovered Dana on YouTube with her 50 red flag series. I was hooked and this book being narrated by herself is soothing, healing, and empowering. Thank you Dana ❤🤗
