Narcissistic Siblings

If you grew up with a narcissistic sibling, you know how much they affect the entire family system. If they are having a bad day, EVERYONE in the house is having a bad day. The universe seems to orbit around their moods, their whims, and trying to figure out how to have a “normal” relationship with them. I talk about the experience of growing up with a narcissistic brother or sister in today’s video. If you have a narcissist in your life, I've got your back. For over 25 years I've seen the profound damage narcissists can cause in my clients' lives. My easy-to-read practical guide, Surviving the Narcissist, is full of essential information and powerful exercises designed to help you understand what the heck is going on, why the narcissist does the crazy things they do, and how to navigate the relationship with them so you can stop being held hostage by the crazy and start to feel calmer. Discover the dynamics, the traps, and the strategies that will help you get unhooked from the cycle and help you find more peace. You can find the guide here: https://resilientlifetherapy.com/surv...
