“A beacon of truth and wisdom for the abused and a help in their healing.” ―Scot McKnight and Laura Barringer, authors of A Church Called Tov

“Am I the only one who sees this―am I just imagining things? Is something wrong with me . . . or could this be abuse?”
Maybe you don’t know for sure: all you know is something feels off when you think about a certain relationship or interaction with an institution or organization. You feel alone and confused―but calling it “abuse” feels extreme and unsettling, a label for what happens to other people but not you. Yet you can’t shake the feeling: something’s not right.
In his debut book, researcher and advocate Wade Mullen introduces us to the groundbreaking world of impression management―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.

Combining years of study with deep compassion and personal experience, Wade Mullen gives readers:

“Am I imagining things . . . or could this be abuse?”
Using the term abuse may seem extreme, a label for what happens to other people, not you. Yet when you think about a certain relationship or institution, you just can’t shake the feeling that something’s not right.
Something’s not right. In his debut book, researcher and advocate Wade Mullen introduces us to the strategies individuals and organizations employ to gain power and cover up their wrongdoings. Abusers of all kinds use these patterns to control and coerce, to keep their victims silent. If we can learn to decode these methods―if we can learn the language of abuse―we can begin to stop the cycle of destruction in our lives.
Something’s Not Right will help you identify and describe tactics that were previously unidentifiable and indescribable, giving you the language―and courage―you need to move toward freedom and create a safer future for yourself and others.
Wade Mullen, Phd, is a professor, researcher, and advocate working to help those trapped in the confusion and captivity that mark abusive situations. His personal experiences and ongoing research enable him to write with both care and expertise.
