Gaslighting is when someone tries to make another person doubt their own mind and feelings in a relationship. This is a harmful way of controlling someone and hurting their mental and emotional health. Noticing gaslighting is very important to take back your power and confidence. Gaslighting can make you feel unsure of what is true, by lying, dismissing your worries, or blaming you for things. You may start to feel crazy and rely on the gaslighter to tell you what is right.
Some signs that you are being gaslighted are:
- being told that what you saw or felt is not true,
- having your emotions ignored, and being confused by different things the gaslighter says.
- The gaslighter may also hide things from you, make you feel bad about yourself, or accuse you of doing what they are doing.
If you see these signs in your relationship, you need to be careful, as gaslighting can cause serious harm. You should get help and support from people you trust or professionals who can help you. The sooner you stop gaslighting, the better for your relationship and your well-being.
