About the episode

Are Narcissism and Narcissistic abuse major problems in society today?

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few years – you’ve likely heard some of the discourse around both.

Never fear – we’ve got THE definitive take - It’s Not You: Identifying and Healing from Narcissistic People - from author and PHD haver: Ramani Durvasala – an expert on both narcissism and narcissistic abuse; particularly within interpersonal relationships.

On this upside of Book Wise, host Britt Brewer AKA “Dr. Books” will answer these three questions:

1. How do you know someone is a narcissist?
2. What does narcissistic abuse feel like?
3. And finally, how do you get out of it?

And this one goes so in-depth, we made it a two-part barn burner!

It’s Not You by Dr. Ramani Durvasula is a guide to understanding and healing from the toxic effects of narcissistic relationships. Dr. Ramani, a clinical psychologist with over two decades of experience, explains how narcissists manipulate and damage self-esteem, often leaving their victims feeling at fault. The book teaches readers to recognize the behavioral patterns of narcissists, resist gaslighting, and break free from trauma bonds. Dr. Ramani emphasizes that the narcissist’s behavior is not the victim's fault and offers a path to healing, setting boundaries, and reclaiming a sense of self after constant invalidation.
