About this listen
What Causes Narcissism?
The world has been indoctrinated with the false notion that narcissism is the result of a bad childhood.
It’s as if narcissists have been granted immunity from responsibility. Mental health professionals - and the general public alike - seem more than willing to offer narcissists a perfectly convenient scapegoat: trauma.
The goal of this book, using the most recent empirical evidence on the etiology and treatment of narcissistic personality disorder - is to dispel the widely held and already discredited myth that narcissism is the result of childhood trauma. Despite evidence to the contrary, this widely held myth continues to prevail in popular media and culture.
This book aims to correct the mistakes related to the cause of narcissism so that mental health practitioners and the general public will have a scientifically informed understanding of etiology and intervention. Because the reality is that almost everything we have been taught about the cause of narcissism…is wrong.

Empowering, Eye-Opening, and Deeply Validating
This book has given me the clearest understanding of narcissism I’ve ever encountered. It left me feeling empowered, validated, and truly seen, while deepening my understanding of myself and narcissistic abuse. Thank you, Dr. Salerno, for this incredible book.

A MUST READ
For anyone involved with a Narcissistic personality, regardless of gender, this book will make you feel better. Similar to a sociopath, the Narcissist is missing important parts of their brain, and to expect them to be anything else would be masochistic. (I'm paraphrasing). Great book!
