About this listen

THE definitive practical and emotional survival guide to narcissistic separations and divorce, from medical doctor and Amazon bestselling author, Supriya McKenna. In the first book of her 'Narcissists in Divorce' series, Dr Supriya, one of the most well known names in the area of narcissistic relationships, offers up her years of experience working in this field.

In 'From Love-Locked to Leaving' Dr Supriya will first walk you through how to assess whether your partner is a true narcissist. Through a cast of compelling characters, who bring the different outward presentations of narcissism to life, together with in-depth questionnaires, you'll learn exactly how to deconstruct narcissistic behaviours. You'll discover the predictable divorce and separation behaviours to expect from a narcissist, and their impact on you and your children.

Dr Supriya will also help you to understand the psychological reasons why these relationships are so difficult to break free from, why you are likely to be confused or struggling, and what may have predisposed you to being targeted by a narcissist. With practical and compassionate guidance to help you decide whether (or when) to leave your relationship, you'll also learn essential strategies to build your resilience which will help you regardless of whether you choose to ultimately stay or leave.

If you do choose to separate, 'Narcissists in Divorce: From Leaving to Liberty' is the follow-on guide in the series. Dr Supriya, a former family doctor, works with clients and their lawyers to circumnavigate the pitfalls and difficulties specific to narcissistic divorces. She also teaches family justice professionals, at all levels, how to manage these challenging cases. Dr Supriya has written various books and articles on the subject of NPD, including the only book about narcissism specifically for family lawyers, and her podcast, 'Narcissists in Divorce: The Narcissist Trap' ranks in the world's top 5% most downloaded podcasts.

I love the book because it helped me to understand my husband and the possible causes of his dysfunction with interpersonal relationships, as he constantly complains about everybody he is surrounded with (work, mother, sister, father, friends and of course me as a wife). This book is helping me to prepare for a battle, a childish battle. Supriya provides you with tools on how to deal while living in with a person with NPD, how to prepare to leave a toxic relationship and the after. The information you find on this book is unique, and not easy to come across for high conflict relationships and helps you on how to act and avoid to react, you will find information on how to recover and the specific therapy you need as not all will help i.e MBRS meditation but the most important tips on how to deal with your children and help them to not become narcissists.

Very knowledgeable in the chaos and struggles when in a relationship with a narcissist

The extent of detail across a variety of narcissistic types was very interesting and empowering to gain an understanding. This is an essential read / listen if you suspect you have been abused by someone with NPD.

I've consumed several books on narcissism and consumed countless hours of YouTube and podcasts. This book is outstanding, it explains narcissism in simple practical ways through example and application. It gets to the core of how narcissism and gaslighting actually manifest in day to day interactions. There are no abstract concepts here, instead there is relatable and utterly priceless essential information. This book is excellent, the best I've consumed on the subject. From a red haired Irish non narcissist (-_^)

I read Dr. Supriya's new book "Narcissists in Divorce: From Love-Locked to Leaving" and I found it incredibly validating and helpful. I have been helping narcissistic abuse survivors for a few years now and have done a copious amount of reading and learning myself. I still found Dr. Supriya's book informative and easy to read. It's very well laid out considering all the aspects of what it's like to be in a narcissistic relationship to leaving and parenting with one. As a survivor, I found Dr. Supriya's advice and guidance on healing very helpful. I particularly admire her mentioning holistic tools such as EFT. Much literature would narrow healing to psychotherapy and I don't think it's fair or provide readers with a wider view of different ways to heal. But, Dr. Supriya has talked about different avenues. I thank Dr. Supriya for her work. Keep it up.

Outstanding read! This book has brought so much clarity and insight to my difficult marriage. Most importantly, it has explained the subsequent separation abuse for which I was not prepared and which left me reeling. It has given me peace of mind and helped me understand and process the distress of my divorce. Thank you so much for writing this book Dr Supriya McKenna.

This book, as are all of Dr McKenna's books, is an excellent resource for people in difficult relationships seeking a way through and out the other side. It is well-informed, practical and engaging from beginning to end. The audiobook is also very well performed. I recommend it without reservation.

Excellent resource, well read

I have read a significant amount of materials (included the limited books) across the field of narcissism and this is undoubtedly the best piece of literature thus far.. the author somehow manages to educate with clarity, depth, candour and empathy all at once.

Unlike other resources which often just list characteristics and features of NPD, the detailed case studies included in this book uniquely provide both victims with 'real world' experiences to relate to as well as helping educate their support network such as family and friends to be able to understand better the complex and devastating experiencing that suffering narcissistic abuse entails.

Highly recommended!

Exceptional book and potential lifesaver!

Dr. Supriya McKenna understands narcissistic behaviour and abuse in a way that is very relatable. Using everyday language free of jargon she aptly describes what to watch out for with different types of narcissists during divorce. I would recommend this book to all those interested in knowing more, preparing themselves as much as they are able and wanting to understand thier circumstances more.

Another helpful read

This book is the perfect companion when you feel isolated and lonely. When you can’t make sense of what’s been happening to you and all you know is that you have to find a way to survive and get through the next however many months of pain, manipulation and self-doubt. It’s my bible and It would have saved me years of abuse had I come across something like this while I was in the thick of it all. I hung on every word. Thank you !!

Every word resonated with me

This book is an incredible insight into narcissism.

Narcissim has become such a buzzword with so much content and misinformation out there, but this book cuts through all that. Dr Surpiya clearly explains what narcissistic personality disorder is, the behaviours and how to recognise them, dispelling multiple myths along the way. The deep dive in Chapter 3 is particularly useful.

In my work as a coach, many clients ask about narcissism, often believing their partner is one (and in some cases, sadly they are) and I always refer them to this book and the narcissist tests, which are so useful to help people have clarity about their partner’s behaviour.

The book also explores how the narcissist’s behaviour can play out in divorce and the impact on children, before closing with a wonderful chapter on becoming stronger where Dr Supriya shares advice on how to heal and grow, giving survivors of abuse reassurance that they can, and will recover.

It really is a must-read for anyone dealing with or recovering from narcissistic abuse, not just from their partner, but in all relationships. I definitely recognised a few old bosses in her characters.

An incredible insight into narcissism.
