A Narcissism Questionnaire and practical suggestions are given for dealing with narcissists whether it’s your spouse, a friend, a family member, a co-worker, or even yourself.

What are the most common narcissistic traits?
Find the answers to these and many more questions between the pages of the entertaining book, You Might Be a Narcissist If...
Dr. Paul Meier is a psychiatrist who has treated hundreds of people with this personality trait and thousands who have been negatively impacted by narcissists. In 1993, he appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show to discuss a book he had written about narcissists called Don’t Let Jerks Get the Best of You, and another book on codependency (about being addicted to having narcissistic friends or mates) called Love Is a Choice. Meier states that Narcissists are basically people who think the world revolves around them (or if it doesn’t, it should).
A few years ago, Meier enjoyed a TV special based on the New York Times bestseller You Might Be a Redneck If…. So, shortly after that, he and some friends jokingly and spontaneously thought of some ideas for “You Might Be a Narcissist If…” and thus the book began.
Message from the authors:
“We continually see numerous lives, marriages, and families, even churches, torn apart from the destructive forces of narcissism. However, what we know to be true…is that it is a rare person who intentionally sets out to destroy his own life or the lives of the people he loves. Until we each become more conscious of which attitudes, feelings and behaviors inadvertently hurt ourselves or others, we tend to go on for years repeating the same patterns… communicating in the same ways…not setting healthy boundaries, and so on… Life can become utterly frustrating and exhausting! However, when we know what the issues are, we can change. It is so invigorating to know that we don’t have to stay stuck…even if we’re not the one struggling with narcissism…we can change the way we relate to the people who do.”
