Out of the FOG, into the CLEAR; Journaling to Help You Heal from Toxic Relationships: A very effective self-help book.
This is an excellent self-help book for freeing a person from the effects of destructive relationships. Rather than trying to change the person who is the source of the difficulty, the book provides an extensive tutorial on creating a strong positive framework within oneself. In chapter after chapter the book accomplishes this result by asking questions the reader can answer as part of an introspective “Journal”. The book is highly recommended for those in need and others who want to help.

Out of the FOG, into the CLEAR; Journaling to Help You Heal from Toxic Relationships: A comprehensive guide to recovery from a toxic relationship.
Shannon’s book, Out of the Fog, Into the Clear, is a comprehensive guide to recognizing a toxic relationship and removing it from your life. Toxic people are charming and manipulative so, in the beginning, it is easy to be drawn into their world. The problem comes when your worldview collides with theirs. When your self-interest becomes a threat to them. If you cannot disappear into their realm, it will inevitably lead to trouble. You must lose yourself and be wholly subservient to their needs, or else. Shannon’s book shows you, with a well-defined process, how to become aware of and disentangle yourself from the web of an abusive person. A toxic person can be a spouse, a parent, or even an adult child – anyone you hold dear.  One important step is to acknowledge the grief of such a relationship and the agony of losing it even if it is for your own welfare. Not all love is truly love. It can be control disguised as love. Shannon provides journaling suggestions to help you clarify your thoughts and separate reality from emotion, a journalistic point of view - just the facts ma’am or sir. She encourages self-reflection and self-forgiveness. She emphasizes rebuilding your self-worth by finding purpose and living within your own values. Life goes on and is good when you can shine as your authentic self, not the moon eclipsed by the sun of a narcissistic person.

Out of the FOG, into the CLEAR; Journaling to Help You Heal from Toxic Relationships: Very Helpful
This book can be very helpful and encouraging if you are forced to deal with someone with narcissistic tendencies.  Most of us are at a great disadvantage when in such relationships because: 1) Narcissists are very good at manipulating and the unwary will get burned over and over again.  2)  We don't treat people the way they do--or at least we know it is wrong when we do.  Whereas a narcissist almost seems to thrive on it.  Having said this, "Out of the Fog, Into the Clear" provides all sorts of practical helps for recognizing narcissistic behavior (so you don't blame yourself), and more importantly, ways of dealing with the personal damage that may have already occurred from being in a relationship with such an individual.  I strongly recommend it to promote healing and moving forward from the toxicity of narcissistic relationships.

Out of the FOG, into the CLEAR; Journaling to Help You Heal from Toxic Relationships: Out of the Fog provides a clear path from other-inflicted abuse to self-love and healing
One of the most disheartening realizations in my life was discovering it’s not all happening “out there”.  However, the fact it’s happening “in here” provided me with the ability to re-shape my life.  Shannon Petrovich’s book offers a concrete road map to healing: while the behaviors of our loved ones may have been (or are) traumatic, we (and only we) have the ability to heal ourselves.To take it a step further, Shannon’s book walks us through the very exercises that lead us to our own healing.  It’s one thing to conceptually understand a skill (for example, I have many cookbooks, but simply reading them hasn’t made me a better cook), and it’s another thing to engage in the correct exercises that will help us to build that skill.The main purpose of Out of the Fog Into the CLEAR is to provide a guide we can utilize to heal ourselves.  What I realized as I read Out of the Fog is that the very behaviors I experienced throughout my childhood were behaviors I then embodied as an adult.  Self-healing then doesn’t just address my own pain, it can result in reducing the pain I inflict on others.Out of the Fog is both direct and clear.  At times I found myself wanting to hide from the words.  But it is exactly the directness that allowed me to see clearly into abusive relationships.  “The only way out is through” (Dante Alighieri) comes to mind.A quote from Out of the Fog really struck me: “…self-esteem is not an outfit you put on. Rather it is about becoming your full, authentic self”.  I spent the better part of 60 years believing the only way I could ever be lovable was if I could get my mother to love me.  Learning to love myself has been a long process, but well worth the effort.I think Shannon’s book is easy to read and the exercises are worth taking the time and effort.

Out of the FOG, into the CLEAR; Journaling to Help You Heal from Toxic Relationships: If You Feel Trapped In A Difficult Relationship, This Book Is For You!
The author deals with the behavior of abusive people, narcissists and the consequences experienced by their victims.  The book is written in everyday English rather than with technical jargon.  The great value of the book is how it helps the reader understand abusive people and practical steps to take the victim down the road to healing and recovery.  She explains why many victims of abuse stay in such toxic relationships and provides victims with useful information to understand their own behavior.  She has "homework" exercises to help the abused person understand the dynamics in the relationship.  If you or someone you know is trapped in a difficult relationship please read the book or give it to a friend who needs help.  They will thank you after they have read it.  I learned a lot of useful information.
