About this listen

The Covert Passive Aggressive Narcissist: Finding Healing After Hidden Emotional and Psychological Abuse is the most comprehensive and helpful audiobook on the topic of covert narcissism. This type of narcissism is one of the most damaging forms because the abuse is so hidden and so insidious. You can be in a relationship that can last for decades and not realize you are being psychologically and emotionally controlled, manipulated, and abused.

These people are well-liked; they are often the pillars of the community. Parents, spouses, bosses, and friends who are covert narcissists come across as the nicest people. They can be spiritual leaders, they are moms who bring over casseroles to needy people, they are the bosses who everyone loves and feels so lucky to work for.

These relationships are incredibly confusing and damaging. They leave you questioning your own sanity and reality. Even though they are treating you terribly, you wonder if you are the problem, if you are the one to blame. You are filled with constant self-doubt when it comes to these people in your life. When you are around them, you feel confused and muddled inside. You have a hard time seeing clearly.

These relationships can bring you to a state of deep depression and complete depletion of energy. You may wonder if you will ever see clearly and heal from these destructive and debilitating relationships.

This audiobook will give you hope that you can heal and feel alive again, or maybe for the first time. You will learn what the traits of a covert narcissist are, as well as how they control and manipulate. Your eyes will open, and your experience will be validated. You will also learn ways to heal and actually enjoy life again.

Debbie Mirza uses decades of her own experience with covert narcissists as well as her years of practice as a life coach who specializes in helping people recover and heal from these types of relationships.

Enjoyed the book

For someone who just came out from a toxic relationship, this book and the narrator was easy to listen to and I was able to enjoy listening to the messages. I’m not surprised this book was chosen by professionals in the mental health industry as one of the best books to read.

Amazing!

This book made all the heartbreaking crazy thoughts and experiences that emanated both during and after decades of abuse from a CN father and sister make sense. It will be an invaluable tool for helping me make my way back on the healing journey. The author’s narration is gentle and soothing making it a pleasure to listen to as you deal with the grief and pain as you relate your experiences to the content. So good i subsequently bought the paperback to enable me to re-read and journal.

Life changing. Grateful to find this

If you found yourself here after much confusion, listen to this book.

If you spend time wondering why it's so hard to have a basic conversation which includes your needs, listen to this book.

If you have seen the things you loved in yourself diminish to a dim memory of a former glow, listen to this book.

This book was written to help us sort out fact from fiction when coming to the realisation we have been the victim of covert narcissist abuse.

"but he/she is so nice" - that's what they would like you to think and many others have only seen the side of them they want them to see.

If you have felt isolated and alone, unlovable, and fundamentally wrong, it is because your empathetic nature has been taken advantage of by someone who does not take responsibility for their own issues.

This book will help you find a place in clarity where you can begin to understand what has happened to you. It is a smooth and sequential listen which will help you see what is on the other side of healing from what you have been through.

You are worthy of acceptance. You are worthy of actual love. There are people in the world who want to support you for being completely you.

I cannot recommend this book enough.
