WHY RETHINK NARCISSISM?

People ask, “Why rethink narcissism?” and sometimes they get a little confused from the title that somehow I’m talking about how great narcissism is – that’s not what this book is about at all. In fact, it draws on many of the most promising and recent research findings that we have in understanding narcissism and includes my own research in helping people understand narcissism in a different way, which gives you a much clearer path through all of this than we’ve ever had before.

THE NARCISSISM TEST

If you haven’t already done so, I suggest you go to The Narcissism Test on www.drcraigmalkin.com/the-narcissism-test and take the brief online version of the measure my colleagues and I have developed (The Narcissism Spectrum Scale) to see where you or your loved ones score (if you want to take it as if your loved one was taking it; many people have).

The Biggest Barrier to Leaving a Bad Relationship

Bad relationships often blind us to what’s important to us, or push us towards ignoring what we’re thinking or feeling in favor of the other person’s POV. Defensive empathy is one of the most powerful (and confusing) mechanisms people fall into when dealing with narcissistic friends, partners and family members. In this video, I share some examples of defensive empathy– and how you can recognize and break the cycle when it affects you and your relationships.
