Nothing especially new here (I recommend Aron‘s works instead)! One problem I have with books like this one, is how muddy the thinking is. Apparently toxic people have no merits, and HSPs have *only* merits. A very victimy mentality. At one point the book recommends that you lie to a (non-dangerous) toxic person in order to get out of a commitment. This isn‘t the kind of advice I need in my life.
