A straightforward guide for anyone dealing with difficult relationships. Are you in a relationship that is confusing, uncomfortable and unpredictable? Do certain people make your life hell? Is your self-esteem suffering at the expense of certain relationships? If the answers are 'yes', you are probably a victim of manipulative behaviour and caught in the cycle of emotional abuse from a boss, a lover, a family member or even a best friend. You can learn to escape this cycle, stop the bullying and put stability and confidence back into your life. If you are suffering at the hands of a bully, you need quick access to specific information. Bullies come in all shapes and sizes, using different patterns of manipulation to get what they want. Each chapter of People Who Make Your Life Hell is focused on a pattern of manipulation; you only need to read the chapter that relates to your situation. Look at the list of characters at the start of the book, find your abuser and you'll discover why they do it, how they get away with it, and how you can stop their abuse yet still give them a chance to play fair.
