Publisher's summary

Hijackals,(aka relentlessly difficult people) are defined by Dr. Rhoberta Shaler, as "people who hijack relationships for their own purposes, while relentlessly scavenging them for power, status, and control." If you feel confused, betrayed, or caught and you're constantly second-guessing yourself and questioning your sanity, you may well be with a Hijackal®. If your partner works hard at keeping you feeling wrong, unimportant, and not good enough, it's highly likely you're with a Hijackal. A relentlessly difficult person is more intense and ... unrelenting... in their characteristics - guilt, blame, shame, isolation, put-downs, aggression & anger, belittling, gas-lighting, minimizing... doing what they can to feel more powerful while making you less powerful. They are extremely good at it. And although it's easy to say you can "choose" how you react and respond, it's really not that easy to do in actuality. If you've been with - or been raised by - someone like that... you need skills and information to give yourself the CHANCE to choose differently and manage this relationship in a new way that helps you regain your sanity and sense of self. Sound familiar? You need to learn all you can about: > recognizing the illusive, hard-to-put-your-finger-on behaviors common to Hijackals > Identifying what they do that keeps you second-guessing yourself > why they were drawn to you > why you were drawn to them > what The Hijackal Trap is, looks like, and feels like > what it takes to step away > why you need better strategies to escape the Hijackal Trap, whether you go or stay. In this ebook series, you will come to understand Hijackal behavior, and learn strategies for dealing with it authentically. Whether you are living with, working with, leaving, or divorced from a Hijackal, you need all these insights, skills and solutions to move on in healthy way. You'll need some relationship help to make a recovery, too--and to insure that you never again are attractive to a Hijackal! Rhoberta Shaler, PhD, The Relationship Help Doctor, provides urgent and ongoing care for individuals, couples, and companies, worldwide.
