No Contact

This is the best book ever if your really serious about going no contact with your narc or narcs you will be surprised as to were they actually are in your life for me I’m surrounded and this book has opened my eyes right up to them I strongly recommend x

I was in a very bad tim3 when my ex blocked me on FB , even though I left him, but we still see from time to time. I was furious when I found that HE blocked me and was just about to call him , entangle him with charm, etc but because of the point of the narcissistic/ the author/I found that I was entrapped by a Power play. Ev3ryone dealing with narcissist must read and understand the book.

Although I've never been the partner of anybody with any kind of NPD, I've been in two situations in my past with two men who I strongly suspect to have been toxic narcissists. One was the partner of an ex friend. The other a colleague. Because I was pretty much only on acquaintance terms with both, I got off lightly in my problem experiences with them compared to partners who have had intimate relationships with abusive people with NPD/severely suffered from their mistreatment. However, I still found it very useful to learn how to properly implement no contact (by avoiding certain errors), in the event I should meet somebody else similar in future (in some context) when I might unexpectedly need to use it. I also found that, regarding my observations of how the first man treated my friend of the time/certain ways he would treat me/how often she would leave him (only to go back to him at a later point) it strongly came over to me that much of what's covered on certain power play/pity manipulation approaches is accurate. I also found it useful/interesting to learn of types I didn't know about before. As with the book "Smeared" I thought a better editing job could have been done. But, overall, I found this a helpful/informative book to read/learn from.

I wished I had read this book before I decided to go no contact with my ex narcissist husband of 19years being together. I made the stupid mistake of going no contact with this man thinking he would change. Well he refused, basically I lost my teenage sons whom he deployed to abuse me, all my friends, money, and had to move two hours drive away with my youngest son. It has been 3years of hell and he does not stop with the abusive text messages or uses my teenage sons to send them instead, even though he is remarried. To top it all off learning about narcissism I have found out both my parents are narcissists. I would encourage people to read this book, so the above never happens to anybody, and you can get prepared. HG Tudor, is shockingly honest. Don’t know if I like it or not, some of the read made me want to slap HG for sure. However, it is the truth and this book could safe lives.

I rarely write reviews but I felt compelled to for this book! I have lived through everything written here, had the thoughts mentioned and every move played on me by my ex husband, down to every last detail. I recognised that he was a narcissist through the counselling that I required after he left me (for his PA) but this book is spookily accurate-bravo! I definitely will continue my NC approach, especially after reading this!

Good book but as I can’t go no contact as we have a child together it wasn’t as useful to me. However for those who can then great advice

Very useful book , written with honesty .

Was a bit funny as well, HG is so much drama. I hate narcs they are all trouble., stay away

I found the book interesting and useful. It offers good insights in terms of how important it is to understand the patterns of a narcissist's behaviour and how predictable they are. The No contact is both the question answer to it.

The authors words are a vindication to our experience

No Contact was an educational eye opener with some practical confronting and life saving truths. A must read for anyone who is trying to leave a Narcissists or who has just left.

This is the best book on No Contact ever written. No Contact is much deeper than you just not speaking to your abusers. I can’t apply this to all the ppl with NPD in my life (some I can’t actually go 100% no contact with for different reasons) — but it has been helpful for me to make sense of a former relationship that broke my spirit. I finally walked away and have been No Contact for nearly a year. I wasn’t, however, doing everything in this book. Since I read this book, I have stopped thinking about my former partner, checking their social media, or anything that reinforces the delusional world I have created where they are a good person who cares about me. They don’t. And never will. I wanted to seek revenge for a long time; however, I realized No Contact is not about them; it’s about ME. And this book is fundamental to anyone seeking to walk away from narcissistic abuse and never look back.

Como primeiro livro comprado da série, consegui responder perguntas de uma vida, compreendendo como um familiar meu se comportava e porque ele era assim. Me afastei. A pressão voltou ao normal, o coração parou de bater acelerado e as confusões praticamente acabaram. Ao criar uma rede de suporte, também consegui levar este entendimento aos próximos a mim, evitando julgamentos e falácias. Este conhecimento é essencial para você se ver livre de um narcisista, mas para isso, é necessário praticar os ensinamentos de maneira integral. Em resumo, para mim, este livro respondeu as questões que fazia há mim mesmo, por muitos anos, apliquei a solução proposta e funcionou. Leitura essencial.
