Divorcing a Narcissist: Rebuilding After The Storm Paperback – October 14, 2015

This is a MUST read for anyone going through a high conflict divorce. It is "real-life" help. Not only does it make you realize you are not alone it gives specifics on rebuilding after you've been torn down by a Narcissist. Tina's books and words are heartfelt, touching and empowering. They provide an education none of us ever thought we would need. Her words are truly life changing and bottom line- helpful. The experiences she shares from court battles, to dealing with your children and what's best for them, to working on your own recovery are key pieces and valid points to help support your battle. Her books have provided a lifeline and changed my life. This book in particular has allowed me to reflect, learn, grow and heal-- it provides invaluable tools for my own custody battle which after 3 years is at its height; but I am prepared. Ready. The hardest part about dealing with the Narcissist is convincing yourself that your own judgment is not skewed. Tina's experiences validate life with a Narcissist. It's their behavior that's the issue; you are not the problem. Thank you Tina for doing what you do! Forever grateful!

Reading Tina's books is like talking with a dear friend. She offers so much wisdom but without the know-it-all air like many experts may inadvertently evoke. She comes across so level-headed and relatable.I've learned a great deal from her. In every day situations I now find myself asking what would Tina do? What would she say? Would she accept that answer? Would she set a boundary there? And for me, this technique works to keep my healthy thought patterns in place and continue to fight the long fight of almost seven years now against a personality disordered individual who does not put our child's best interests first - and rarely does the Family court system. Because of advocates like Tina in my corner, I can keep going and my child is absolutely thriving despite the instability from his father.This book in particular offers so many reflection points, encouraging you to really consider what you've been through and then practical steps to HEAL. As with all of her books, I highly recommend it!!

I own all of Tina Swithin's books, and just like the previous two, this one is filled with invaluable advice. Ms. Swithin is able to step back from her situation and give clear and concise advice on how to get ones life on track both during and after life with a person or people with a cluster-B personality disorder.What I love so much about her books is, she speaks from experience, as a layperson -- and lets the reader into her life, admitting where she needed improvement -- and how far she has come. Wonderful book and wonderfully written. A great for anyone who must continually face an ex with NPD or BPD.

I absolutely love this book and her other two books, as well!! This book has brought back some light to my life. I am in the middle of divorcing a narcissist and it has been by far the hardest thing I've ever gone through. Her books have helped me see a light at the end of the tunnel. I can relate with her in so many ways and this book has given me so much hope. Thank you for pouring your heart out and giving us tools to use in the present and the future!!! God bless you!!!

I would not have known about NPD if it were not for this author. I have read 3 of her books now (started w/ Divorcing a Narcissist) and now fully understand what a narcissist is like. For years, I was made to think I was crazy for being upset that my husband was going out, getting drunk and coming home at 3am and then saying "sorry" and then repeating the process all over again. I even apologized to him for asking him if he was cheating on me (he was) and for spending too much time cooking for him. (yes, I actually apologized for that at the end of my marriage). Now still going through a divorce 13 months later, I now have a understanding of how my ex thinks, why he does what he does, how crazy he is and i know how to deal with him (thanks for Narc Decoder, I now understand his lingo as well). Still trying to "rebuild after the storm" as when you are co-parenting w/ Narc, there's no end in sight. Everyday there's a email, a call, etc. and all I do is try to do no contact. Only what is mandatory in terms of communication. This author is a lifesaver (literally). If you are dealing w/ a narcissist, you are NOT alone. You will read her books and think you wrote it cuz they are the exact words your ex narc used/uses.

Easy read . Tina ‘s story is heartbreaking. Her book is a connection and educational ride that is the path to healing and getting your joy and power back. Loved it . Thank you Tina for sharing your life and helping others to heal and navigate the mind fields of the horrifying disorder.

This book has just enough simple steps and prompts to get you on track to controlling the chaos. Looking forward for reading more from this author.

I have read all of Tina's books. Before you even look at these reviews, know that father's rights groups come on Amazon and on her one mom's battle page and belittle and harass this woman. She has done so much for people that have gone through bad divorces and custody battles. That being said, Dr. Malkin is a guest post in her book which is awesome he is a knowlegable man. This book helps you decipher the Narcissist behavior. I love that when you are reading it, there is no down playing of what a Narcissist is or how they behave. You read her book sitting there going YES! that is so and so. I love how down to earth and realistic is, because we are able to understand now through her books that Narcissists abuse their victims and family court systems need to WAKE UP.
