Radical Acceptance !
This book really changes oneโs perspective on dealing with narcissistic people. Prior to reading this book I used to be very offensive, aggressive, and used vehemently fight against the abuse, mistreatment, manipulative mindset of the narcissist people but after reading this book my whole thought process and behaviour transcended towards โradical acceptanceโ and I stopped fighting against the wall, I let go and build boundaries for my own personal peace and well being. Must read for people who are dealing with Narcissistic people of all kinds.

Dr. R is what the world NEEDS in this day and age!
Dr R, I want to thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart. Thank you so so much! If it wasn't for you, I would have never understood how I lost myself. I am now 30. I have been going through major depression for the past 12 years! And it was simply IMPOSSIBLE to explain to anybody about what I was going through. I have tried to explain in therapy, I have tried to journal, I have tried to talk to friends when I wanted to, but I simply never could. Because the pain had so many layers and projections. I was afraid I would carry this to my grave. And then I came across you on YT. I saw a clip from Jay Shetty's podcast and immediately something made me save it on my phone to watch it later. Then I watched, and then my life flipped! Then I watched you on Lewis's and Lisa's Podcasts. Then I explored your videos on your YT channel - FOR ONCE in 12 years I felt true relief from the gut-wrenching, chronic pain I was in! I can't tell you how grateful I am to you! I watched your videos for about 5 months continuously - made notes, and learnt a lot - then I took your AFFORDABLE healing course - then I bought this book and as I read it - I recognise my triggers and I immediately try to journal - for once I am finally able to journal after multiple attempts to journal it down over many years in the past. This is like THE HARDEST thing to explain, and you have written it so bloody well. You are simply awesome! For me, there is the sky, there is love, there is the universe, there is Buddha, there is Rumi and then there is Dr Ramani! I love you Dr. R. Thank you for the AMOUNT OF EFFORT you have put in to help people like me. I would have NEVER EVER, EVER, EVER found closure and regained a chance to reach my full potential in my life if it wasn't for you! I never expected to find ALL THE PIECES OF THE MISSING PUZZE IN ONE PLACE! It's remarkable that I did in your teachings. I really hope I can see you someday and talk to you. And really hope you are taking care of yourself well and win a Nobel prize!

Best book on narcisstic abuse
If you have ever felt that Noone understood what was going on in your life with narcissistic abuse, this is the book for you. Dr Ramani has shared some deep insight into the behaviors of narcissist and given ways to cope/protect yourself from the abuser. The parts on Radical acceptance and grief made me cry bucket loads because for the first time it felt like someone really knows what you have gone through. What a wonderful book! A masterpiece.

The best out there from the expert herself
Dr Ramani wrote this book for us victims of this unique form of abuse, which most people just don't get when we try to explain to them. It's validating my feelings, making me feel less alone in my healing journey and ofcourse tremendously helping me heal. I recommend this to every victim wholeheartedly โค๏ธ๐ฏ

A must read for all survivors
Thank you for writing this book. I left a toxic relationship of 26 years 5 months ago, and only after leaving started to understand what had happened to me and why I ran like I did. This book has helped me understand what I have been through, that I am not alone, and the practical advice that I have followed has helped me to start sleeping again...

Deskundig, helder, warm en hoopgevend
Het boek geeft heldere inzichten, maar ook erkenning en hoop voor de toekomst. Dr. Ramani doet bijzonder belangrijk werk en is een baken van compassie voor iedereen die hiermee te maken heeft (gehad). Ze is zeer deskundig, schrijft helder en biedt handvatten voor heling. Ik ben haar zeer dankbaar voor haar tomeloze inzet.

The best book I've read
This is a book about how to return to yourself and while it is mainly focused on narcissistic abuse survivors, it can also be useful to anyone who wants to break free from a pattern they don't like in their life and build a more peaceful one. It has practical work too to help you in your journey. It greatly helped me into believing more in myself and leaning more into all the parts of me that I used to reject and I have a better relationship with myself now!
