How to Divorce a Narcissist: and succeed in the family court Paperback – 17 Nov. 2021

This book came to me at a time when I was feeling truly broken. Reading the stories of other women going through the same experience helped me realise I wasn’t alone. Diana offers not only solidarity but also invaluable insight.The divorce process is incredibly hard — and divorcing a narcissist is even harder. Sadly, there are often additional forces at play: judges who may be biased, or aggressive solicitors — the kind narcissistic husbands seem to seek out and find with uncanny ease.But this book gives hope. It found me at my lowest point, and helped me get back on my feet. As I prepare to face my FDR hearing alone, as a litigant in person, I feel just a little bit stronger because of it.

This is one of the books I struggled to put down. The book is filled with excellent insights, advice and knowledge to help domestic abuse victims. Hopefully the book will empower people. Most importantly, the book explains what has been happening to victims and preparing them for what lays ahead.I won't sugar coat it, victims of domestic abuse may find some parts difficult or upsetting to read, especially how the system sees domestic abuse victims. At times the text brought tears to my eyes as I could relate to it. The book advises on court proceedings, a narcarcists behaviour, different forms of abuse, the effects on victims and their children. I am sure that every domestic abuse victim can associate with many of the stories included.For victims who have or are thinking or leaving a narcarcist, this book is a must read. Be safe and reclaim your life.

This book gave me the courage to take my case to the family court and have faith in being able to get a good result. I have asked Diana about a McKenzie friend and got a good reply. I thoroughly recommend this excellent work.

Made for a good secret santa present!

This book is a MUST if you are dealing with narcissist! It was painful reading for the victim to start as she was reminded. But It has given us good advice and guidence in many aspects on our journey to the final hearing in court. Our case had to do with contact and relocation. With the help of this book we succeeded to come through with imortant facts to to the judge which resulted in relocation granted, no overnight contact and limited unsupervised contact with the child. We are so pleased! The book gave ideas when writing the posision statement and also gave the victim courage and help going through the final crossexamination in court. The whole family are still reading the book as it has lots of detailed useful information of how to deal with a narcissist. In particular things like staying cool, dont argue, do not respond strait away and dont give him fuel to act. The narcissist is not going to disappear so we need to be reminded how to handle him.Thank you for writing this book."Grandma"

The most helpful pages for me were the overview of the court system, how it works, what are the steps and how to navigate through it. Also so many helpful resources including counselling specialising in narcissistic abuse, which I’m using. I’m very grateful for this book and highly recommend to anyone going through this nightmare.
