About this listen

You feel drained. Confused. Unseen.

They never yelled. They never hit you. But somehow, you lost yourself.

They made you doubt your memory. Your emotions. Your instincts. And even now, after everything, you still question whether it was really abuse—because it didn’t look like what people usually call abuse.

But deep down, you know: something was deeply wrong.

This is what covert narcissistic abuse does. It’s invisible, manipulative, and designed to make you feel like the problem.

You gave more, stayed longer, tried harder—hoping things would change. But they never did.

They gave just enough to keep you hooked, then pulled away to keep you desperate. They smiled while you spiraled. They used guilt as a leash, silence as a weapon, and your empathy as fuel. By the time you realized how much it cost you to stay, you barely remembered who you were before it started.

This audiobook isn’t here to explain narcissists. It’s here to reconnect you with yourself.

What you’ll gain as you listen:

•Recognize the red flags of psychological and emotional abuse early

•Understand why it felt like love even when it hurt

•Break free from emotional addiction and trauma bonding

•Spot the patterns of manipulation, gaslighting, and false empathy

•Stop chasing closure from people who can’t give it

•Create a safe exit strategy that doesn’t rely on confrontation

•Reclaim your identity piece by piece after emotional erosion

•Set boundaries that actually stick—even with guilt present

•Heal your self-trust and recognize your own instincts again

•Build relationships where peace doesn’t feel like walking on eggshells

You’ve already done the hardest part: surviving. Now it’s time to stop carrying their silence, their shame, and their story.

This time, it’s about you. Your peace. Your clarity. Your life.

I had no idea what covert manipulation looked like until I heard this. The silent treatment, the guilt trips, the constant criticism disguised as "help" - it's all here. Listening while commuting made my drive time productive. Recommended for anyone who thinks abuse has to be obvious.

Eye-opening experience!
