5 Types of People Who Can Ruin Your Life: Identifying and Dealing with Narcissists, Sociopaths, and Other High-Conflict Personalities by Bill Eddy

emotional informative reflective medium-paced

4.0

Insight on personality disorders. It introduces a fairly new theory of high conflict personalities that can coincide with PDs and make someone the villain of someone else’s life. The language is fairly accessible, as well.

I wouldn’t say it’s empathetic or healing focused for people with PDs, though it focuses on behavior patterns and encourages self awareness, as well as mediating and solution-focused approaches to personal disputes. Not all narcissists are abusers, but awareness of shifting blame would ‘fix’ them, not just calling them a narcissist.
