Seven years after its release, Disarming The Narcissist is receiving renewed attention as one of the most unique books for dealing with narcissistic personality disorder as a spouse. Recent reviews have celebrated the book’s timeless advice and the helpful, understanding tone that the book takes in dealing with its sensitive subject matter.

At its core, the book seeks to help those in relationships with narcissistic individuals save their marriages and develop healthy coping strategies rather than leaving those relationships, as other books tend to suggest. The title includes real stories from women who have gone through that process, including a breakdown of the strategies they used in their situations and a wealth of relevant advice.

The book opens with a detailed explanation of what a relationship with a narcissist might look like, how codependent relationships tend to form, and some key things to keep in mind when considering whether a relationship is worth saving. Setting itself apart from other similar self-help titles, Disarming The Narcissist presents this information through lived experience, rather than the cold, often clinical attitude that may be found elsewhere.

Across 5 stories, the book presents strategies that can be used to mitigate the most harmful manifestations of narcissism, particularly jealousy, gaslighting, and manipulation. To deal with these issues, the book demonstrates how to build support networks, avoid toxic situations, develop communication strategies, and more.

As author Nora Simpson explains, many of the couples whose stories are on display here have been married for decades, and are still married to this day. Furthermore, these women have managed to find joy and flourish in spite of their partners’ shortcomings, something which Simpson hopes readers will be able to find for themselves in their own lives after reading.

One reviewer stated, “This book is very helpful in the realization that I’m not crazy, I’m not alone, and it’s okay to stay. I’ve been wondering if staying with my narcissist was really the best for my children and me. The ups and downs are real and everything is not my fault. It’s amazing to read about the lengths other women have gone to appease their spouses.”

Disarming The Narcissist currently stands at a 4.1-star rating on Amazon, and has become one of the foremost resources on the topic in the time since its publication. It is currently available in both paperback and Kindle formats at the link below.
