“With remarkable detail, corroborating science, and content vetted
by a therapist, Shahida unravels the mystery of why so many highly
sensitive people are vulnerable to the machinations of persons of
disturbed character. A must-read for those looking to reclaim their
lives and fulfill their true potential.”

“Outstanding work! Once again, Shahida masterfully blends her own
insight and wisdom with evidence-based research and practical
strategies for empowering survivors to heal from narcissistic
abuse, and effectively disentangle themselves from toxic encounters
with individuals that meet criteria for narcissistic or antisocial
personality disorders. I regularly recommend Shahida’s books to
clients in my private practice, and without exception, they
emphatically find her writings personally beneficial in
multifaceted ways.”

“Shahida has become the voice of our generation, a global expert,
and a fearless thought leader. In this book, she not only
illuminates the highly sensitive person (HSP) experience, she
invites you to nurture your authentic self and discover how to use
your ‘superpowers’ to thrive! If you are sensitive, intuitive, and
attuned to the emotions and energy of others, you’ll learn not only
how to become wonderfully emotionally intelligent, but also how to
change your life and our world for the better.”

“I’m a big Shahida fan. Her writing is thoroughly researched,
cited, and written in a way that is engaging, witty, and oh-so
knowledgeable. This book will help the beginner just realizing what
narcissistic abuse is, as well as anyone fully educated and aware.
I highly recommend this to therapists, lawyers, judges, and
survivors.”

“A must-read for HSPs and for anyone who has ever struggled to
understand, handle, and survive toxic people. Shahida has written a
book that provides all the answers and information you could ever
need in a wonderfully clear, relatable way. This is a book that I
wish I had when I was trying to find my way through the minefield
of being around toxic people. It will, surely, change lives.”
