About this listen

The first book specifically for daughters suffering from the emotional abuse of selfish, self-involved mothers, Will I Ever Be Good Enough? provides the expert assistance you need in order to overcome this debilitating history and reclaim your life for yourself. Drawing on over two decades of experience as a therapist specializing in women's psychology and health, psychotherapist Dr. Karyl McBride helps you recognize the widespread effects of this maternal emotional abuse and guides you as you create an individualized program for self-protection, resolution, and complete recovery.Narcissistic mothers teach their daughters that love is not unconditional, that it is given only when they behave in accordance with maternal expectations and whims. As adults, these daughters have difficulty overcoming feelings of inadequacy, disappointment, emotional emptiness, and sadness.

This book was recommended to me by a professional therapist and it has blown my mind. I always felt I was alone in my experience but after reading this book I no longer feel this way. This book will help those who were raised by a narcissistic mother. I never knew I was raised by one until I read this book which hit the nail on the head. Have listened to it about four times and also ordered the book as I wanted to highlight some useful things that were narrated within the audio version. Could not recommend it enough.

This helped me on my healing journey

Listening to it, made me realise how hurt we are as people, how many challenges we have in front of us, how much work we must do. Hope this book will help many people as helped me and people around me to spread understanding and awarness about narcissistic mothers and harm made as consequence. Will continue to learn and master about CPTSD and devour/edibles mother and help as many people I can help. God help me with that!

life changing
