Synopsis

&#8220;Am I the only one who sees this&#8212;am I just imagining things? Is something wrong with me . . . or could this be abuse?&#8221;<br><br> Maybe you don&#8217;t know for sure: all you know is something feels&#160;off&#160;when you think about a certain relationship or interaction with an institution or organization. You feel alone and confused&#8212;but calling it &#8220;abuse&#8221; feels extreme and unsettling, a label for what happens to other people but not you. Yet you can&#8217;t shake the feeling: something&#8217;s not right.<br><br> In his debut book, researcher and advocate Wade Mullen introduces us to the groundbreaking world of impression management&#8212;the strategies that individuals and organizations utilize to gain power and cover up their wrongdoings. Mullen reveals a pattern that accompanies many types of abuse, almost as if abusers are somehow reading from the same playbook. If we can learn to decode these evil methods&#8212;if we can learn the language of abuse&#8212;we can help stop the cycle and make abusers less effective at accomplishing destruction in our lives.<br><br> Something&#8217;s Not Right&#160;will help you to identify and describe tactics that were previously unidentifiable and indescribable, and give you the language you need to move toward freedom and create a safer future for yourself and others.
