Parasite and the Boogeyman

An abused child spends her days searching for love, acceptance, and safety wherever she can find it. After finding it in every corner of her world, she spends her adult life fighting to be better than the person she was raised to be. This memoir details the author's life as she grows up as the scapegoat in a narcissistic family, the experiences she has when she encounters other narcissists who cause her harm, and the ways she works to overcome her trauma.
