“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.”

book exposes new types of toxic personalities, offers practical
advice for protecting yourself, and dives into the hidden strengths

how to empower our empathy.”

“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.”
—Monica M. White, LMHC,
licensed mental health
counselor
“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.”
—Kristin Sunanta Walker,
founder of Mental Health News
Radio (MHNR) Network: the world’s first podcast network
dedicated to mental health, with over twelve million
listeners
“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.”
