Difficult People (Large Print)

Description

Expert Australian psychologist Dr Rebecca Ray shows us how to identify and manage the difficult people in our lives. An explosive boss a controlling boyfriend a gaslighting colleague an interfering mother-in-law a friend who talks only about herself - we all know them but how do we deal with them? Difficult people take over our lives. They live rent-free in our heads. We steel ourselves before we meet them. We cant relax when we are with them. We ruminate on their behaviour after theyve gone. They harvest our empathy and operate without regard for our feelings. In Difficult People Dr Rebecca Ray shows us how to recognise (and understand) difficult people and provides us with practical strategies for self-preservation. From learning when to say no limiting contact and managing our reactions to knowing when to walk away for good. With her expertise insight and guidance we learn to understand how and when another persons behaviour puts our psychological safety at risk and what steps we can take to restore our boundaries. Compassionate honest and authoritative this is your complete guide to getting your life back from the grip of a difficult relationship and learning how to avoid them in the future.
