About this listen

Are you afraid to feel good? Do you see everyone else pursuing their right to happiness yet feel held back? Do you feel alone, strange or that there’s something wrong with you? Here’s the good news: None of these feelings are true! This is how people feel after a childhood as the scapegoat to a narcissistic parent. These parents require this child to feel bad so that they don’t have to. Scapegoat children learn it is psychologically dangerous to feel good about who they are. This book lays out three steps to finally make it safe to feel good about yourself. First, you will find compassion for yourself by making sense of what happened. Second, you will protect yourself by moving away from narcissistic abusers and toward safe people. Third, you will discover freedom by defying the rules of your narcissistic parent. Most importantly, you will learn how to overcome obstacles and put these steps into action.

The author, Jay Reid, is a practicing psychotherapist who specializes in helping adult scapegoat survivors recover from narcissistic abuse. His first book “Growing Up as the Scapegoat Child: A Guide to Healing” helped thousands understand and address the lasting effects of such abuse.

This book is a guide to understanding what you went through as a scapegoat and how your psychological development was forced to grow in ways that allowed you to survive a narcissistic family. There is a lot of information out there that focuses on narcissistic people and this only perpetuates the idea of how important they are and can keep you stuck in the pattern of focusing more on them than breaking free and focusing on yourself. The people narcissists damage the very most are their children. Jay Reid explains clearly many hidden aspects of the subconscious beliefs you had to adopt to be in relation to your narcissistic parents and how to break free.

Essential and insightful for survivors of narcissistic parents
