Description

Do you find it practically impossible to regulate your emotions around your mother, even though you handle conflict fairly well everywhere else? Does she undermine your authority in front of your children, act entitled to them, and create chaos in your family? Do you often wish you could do something to have a more peaceful and happier life, free from your mother’s toxicity? If you answered yes, trust your gut. Something is wrong. And the insidious abuse you endured as a child is still affecting you today. For many daughters, the moment of clarity comes when they have children of their own. For the first time in their lives, they’re able to see their narcissistic mothers for who they truly are. You were conditioned to accept covert abuse as a child, so when you finally see through it, the pure anger you feel toward your mother is entirely natural. But that anger can become all-consuming, harming your mental health and your relationships. Now, you are at the point of realizing that healing is absolutely necessary. In Covert Narcissist Mother , Ella Lansville—a scapegoat daughter who recovered from a lifetime of hidden abuse—guides you through the stages of recovery and shows you how to protect yourself, your children, and your peace. Inside, you’ll discover: The signs and traits of a covert narcissist mother, including passive-aggressive, enmeshed, and gaslighting behaviors. How maternal covert narcissistic abuse affects your mental health, development, self-esteem, and attachment style and how to begin healing the damage. Stages of recovery, including radical emotional detachment, letting go, and reparenting your inner child. How covert narcissist mothers use flying monkeys and smear campaigns to isolate you, rewrite the narrative, and turn people against you, plus how to recognize these tactics and protect your peace without being pulled back into the drama. Why being raised by a covert narcissist mother makes you an easy target for other covert narcissists and how to break the cycle. Healing exercises, journaling prompts, and letter-writing practices to heal the mother wound. How to regain self-trust, rebuild trust with others, and create healthy relationships. How to rediscover yourself and build a calmer, happier, healthier life. And much more. When a covert narcissist grandmother feels she is losing control, she may make false CPS reports, claim grandparents' rights, or threaten custody. These are legal matters that require a licensed family law attorney. While this book cannot provide legal advice, it serves as your emotional roadmap through the chaos. It will help you recognize her tactics, document incidents, protect your emotional health, and shield yourself and your children once you decide to limit her access.

If you’re ready to take back your role as a parent and protect your children from the manipulations of their narcissistic grandmother, this book will be your comprehensive guide. Review: I cried realizing how much I’d been effected - I actually cried. With that being said, I didn’t expect this book to hit so close to home for me! My mother wasn’t a narcissist but my father was. Although the author focuses on daughters with covert narcissist mothers, she offers several tips, healing exercises, and encouragement for those who have faced any sort of narcissistic abuse. She writes from the standpoint of an overcomer, as she herself had a narc mother. While I disagreed with some of the definitions of forgiveness, there is no denying that anyone who has suffered narcissistic abuse could benefit from reading this book and following her advice. The focus, however, is on the effects of covert (less obvious) narcissistic mothers on their daughters. It affects so much in your life to the point you have to wonder how much would be different with a different mother. Unfortunately, by the time most people realize that they had a narcissistic mother (or father) the damage is done. As the author describes it, you can suffer several developmental, emotional and mental challenges from the abuse. Many narc parents will also try to continue their cycle with their grandchildren. My father is deceased so I hadn’t even considered how narcs may be as grandparents. However, the author offers a lot of advice to stop and to prevent a similar abuse of your children. She tells what the narcissist is likely capable of and offers the reader an action plan to stand against any further cycles of abuse on your children. Overall, I recommend reading this book if you or anyone you know suffers from narcissistic abuse. Not sure if you’ve dealt with a narc? This book also outlines the less obvious signs of narcissism that we often attribute to other things. Whether you know nothing about narcissism, heard a bit about it, or are completely sure that you’ve suffered this kind of abuse - this book is an excellent starting point for your healing journey. She recommends seeing a therapist to get the full extent of support you’ll need in overcoming the abuse. But this book is packed with several tools to get you started. I plan on doing the work she suggested to work on healing my inner child. I actually cried as I read it because I discovered some things about myself that I realize are still unhealed areas from my own abuse. Get the book! Review: 5+ STARS! So Validating! - 5+ Stars! The book I ordered was delicered yesterday and I couldnt wait to start reading it. I have been looking for this book for a long time now and have read many similar and although helpful they never were exactly what I needed. This book is validating, reassuring, to the point, and even goes beyond the abuse to the daughter but the impact the covert narcissist mother has on her daughters children. I am on pg 38 of 261 and really enjoying this book. The author writes from her own experiences and is hands down amazing! The author cares and wants to help others. I am so grateful she wrote this book! If you are a daughter of a covert narcissist mother or suspect your mother is one, don't wait.... buy this book now and start your healing journey. I couldn't wait until I finished the entire book I had to write this review now, in hopes that it will someone else in my situation. Many thanks to the Author Ella Lanaville (and no I don't know the author lol).
