Explain how to deal with someone that has obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, whether it be at work, at home or some other unavoidable situation.

How to Deal with Perfectionist Coworkers, Controlling Spouses, and Other Incredibly Critical People

Impossible to Please

It can be extremely difficult to maintain a relationship with someone with NPD while keeping one's self-respect intact. This workbook is filled with strategies and exercises designed to teach readers to empower themselves and set firm boundaries with NPD sufferers without irreparably damaging the relationship. Readers learn the different ways narcissism can manifest itself in real-life situations, such as at work and in intimate relationships, and practice identifying NPD behavior. The communication skills, coping skills, and NPD information in this workbook comprise a complete toolkit for navigating narcissistic behavior in every area of life. Because it is virtually impossible to change the behavior of people with NPD, it's important for those who interact with them to arm themselves with skills for communicating and coping with these often frustrating behaviours. This workbook may also be used by psychotherapists seeking to supplement their counselling skills with techniques for dealing with the self-absorbed.
