About this listen
In this groundbreaking audiobook, clinical social worker and psychotherapist Sandy Hotchkiss shows you how to cope with controlling, egotistical people who are incapable of the fundamental give-and-take that sustains healthy relationships. Exploring how individuals come to have this shortcoming, why you get drawn into their perilous orbit, and what you can do to break free, Hotchkiss describes the "Seven Deadly Sins of Narcissism" and their origins. You will learn to recognize these hallmarks of unhealthy narcissism - shamelessness, magical thinking, arrogance, envy, entitlement, exploitation, bad boundaries - and to understand the roles that parenting and culture play in their creation.
Whether the narcissist in question is a coworker, spouse, parent, or child, Why Is It Always About You? provides abundant practical advice for anyone struggling to break narcissism's insidious spread to the next generation and for anyone who encounters narcissists in everyday life.

Finally, it makes sense...
The narrator was somewhat robotic at times, but the content made up for that.
This book was invaluable in understanding some of my own relationships. Within the text, I clearly saw my mother and my narcissistic ex-husband. It also helped me see how my own self-esteem issues and lack of boundaries perpetuated that narcissism in my 20-year marriage.
Despite the psychological trauma narcissists cause, I have empathy for them. After all, they are made not born.

Gem after gem is revealed. The facts are profound. She exposes the narcissist without blaming and emotional attacks. The author provides techniques to deal with narcissists and confirmation that what you may already be doing is acceptable. I'm listening to it again.
