A pioneer on the devastating effects of narcissistic abuse, Karyl McBride, PhD, has the answer for anyone desperate for help in overcoming the damage of being raised in a family headed by a narcissistic parent.
Divided into three sections, McBride explores the insidious way a narcissistic environment is developed in a family, how a narcissistic parent damages a child’s emotional growth and ability to trust, and finally, how to not only move on but become truly free.

"Will the Drama Ever End? speaks to the importance of child advocacy whether you are a child, adolescent, or adult working with your inner wounded child. Not only does the book layout the dynamics of the narcissistic family, but it offers a compassionate 5-step recovery model for healing and transformation.

As a mental health provider, I will be recommending this book to my clients, colleagues, friends, and family. I am excited to share this work that reflects the importance of tuning into children’s needs and wellbeing. I not only like this book, but I love it!" –Kate Alexander, LCSW, child and adolescent psychotherapist

The abundance of real-life examples is so valuable and relatable to the reader, so they are not alone in their confusion.

“I found Dr. McBride when I was researching background for my novel featuring a dysfunctional family based on a narcissistic mother’s neglect of her daughter, Grace. As I listened to her audiobook, Will I Ever Be Good Enough, I was relieved and validated that my story of Grace could be one of her cases, and happy to raise awareness of these situations. And now, Dr. McBrides’s new book, Will the Drama Ever End, offers a handbook to those who have suffered the effects of narcissism to help them identify the trauma, reassure them of their sanity and guide them forward to heal and break free of the abuse. Brava! A welcome companion book from a brilliant therapist!”–Maren Cooper, author of Finding Grace and A Better Next
“This book makes so much sense that everyone should read it! Children of narcissistic parents are struggling everywhere, and this book explains why. Adult children of narcissistic parents often don’t understand themselves, their relationships, or their role in the world, but this book will set you free. McBride skillfully breaks down the crazy-making family dynamics and their potential lifetime impact on the children with numerous relatable examples. Her successful five-step roadmap for recovery is based on her many years of experience as a therapist, as well as her own experience. Reading this book feels like a warm and understanding hug!” —Bill Eddy, LCSW, JD, lead author of Splitting: Protecting Yourself While Divorcing Someone with Borderline or Narcissistic Personality Disorder and developer of the New Ways for Families® parent skills training method.
“In Will the Drama Ever End? Dr. McBride has written an outstanding book directed at children of narcissistic parents. I have followed Dr. McBride's work for years—she has been in the trenches dealing with parental narcissism in therapy and legal settings—and her insights are sorely needed. I know from my academic work the damage that narcissistic parents can cause. My hope is that this book will validate the experiences that many children of narcissistic parents have and help these adult children move outside the narcissists' psychological control and into a place that allows growth and deep connection with others.” —W. Keith Campbell, author of The New Science of Narcissism
