Get Over Yourself: "Is Neo-Narcissism Damaging Your Life?"

by William SangsterB.Sc. Psychology, Scott Sangster (Illustrator)

The forces at work on our psyches in the 21st century are mostly invisible, are very persuasive and are working to change our personalities incrementally and constantly. The purpose is compliance. Anxiety encourages us to build defences against hurt. Those defences make us wary and distrusting of others and their intentions. Such an attitude can generate a lack of empathy. Neo-Narcissism is the behavioural trait which the individual develops to present as confident and untroubled whilst having internal anxieties, these masquerades are unable to tolerate criticism or scepticism and inevitably lead to damaged relationships which are bad for us all. If you care about relationships, family, community and society, read this book. Forces of manipulation are exposed, the writer captures the zeitgeist of our age and lays it bare. It is a revelation of the unintended consequences arising from our technological and psychological advancements.
