Query: self-indulgent self-analysis with metaphors run amok

I sympathize with the author, who has serious issues of her own to address, but I felt as though I should be paid to be her analyst by reading this book. I was drawn by the case studies, which I thought would provide personalized accounts of this serious issue; instead, I found each case study slanted to illuminate the author's own problems. I got more insight reading the book jacket blurb (which summarizes typical narcissistic behaviors) than I did plowing through the text itself.... In her valiant attempt to garner sympathy, the author has not left a single metaphoric stone unturned. When she most needs to be clear and concise, she inter-weaves images until they make no sense at all.
