Setting boundaries don't always help, unfortunately. Some gaslighters seem to take it as 'encouragement' to push at those boundaries, and that is where they will really start to devalue your perception. If anything, in some cases setting boundaries can show them they have an effect, where your 'weaknesses' are, and motivate them to keep going. As much as I despise it, everything they do is strategic, so you need to have a counter strategy for being around them. Hold your cards as close as you can, bluff if you can be convincing enough, and try to make them show their hand. Use their own strategy agains them. Or at the very least understand it, so you can know how not to trigger it, for your own safety. The trick about writing it down is very helpful in remembering how things actually happened. And the more you read and remember, the easier it will be to trust your own perception. Because that is really the main goal when dealing with a gaslighter. If you are not constantly scrambling to figure out what actually happened, you can see through their games, and see what they are really doing. That means you spend less mental (and physical) energy on confusion, and you can spend more on figuring out how to deal with them; every gaslighter is different.

I would also add - for other people who eventually read this - that if you notice someone gaslighting you and it taking a huge toll on your mental and/or physical health (hence physical health is often linked to mental health) - if this is a person you can do it with, distance yourself from them, cut them off from your life, run away. Because people who manipulate you will never stop, and exactly as the person before me said, they'll just keep pushing at your boundaries, playing with them, making you feel more and more like you're crazy. So if you see someone gaslight you and your loved ones - or anyone, really, you decide to talk to about it - sees it too once you describe to them what's happening - which often is the case - please, escape this "friendship"/relationship as soon as possible. You deserve much much better than being treated like a toy.

@@margaridalucas4179 I think it is possible that some people are more in denial about it than others. Or some may be raised with that behaviour being the natural way to interact with others. And they may be doing it because of trauma from their own past, and genuinely feel like a victim as well, or at least justified in their actions. But on some level, I think people will know. Some feel bad about it, some don't. But that doesn't mean you should just let them keep harming you, even if it is 'not on purpose'.

Gaslighting is closer to brainwashing than it is to lying. Although, lying is a necessary part of it. The difference is the intention. There is a huge difference between lying to protect someone's feelings and lying to convince someone that a certain thing happened when it did not, or vice versa. Especially if the goal is to make that someone believe that they are at fault for the phantom event or for convincing that someone the non-existence of one.

I knew someone who had such a twisted perception of the real world that they formed a group of people who felt the same way to feel safer, and anyone who told them reasonable truths were allegedly gaslighting them. They were all good people at the heart. I frequently insisted that anything I said was just to try and help, or even ask for help, only to be hurt and bullied for trying to do the right thing. When I got away from that group and spent more time around reasonable people, suddenly I realized I was being gaslit, not them. *If you believe me, I am the victim. If you don't, I did the gaslighting.* The entire interaction hinges on an unbiased third-party, which almost never exists because of the way group dynamics work and tribalism. A lot of people who do the gaslighting genuinely think they are the ones being gaslit. This video, I think, dangerously under-explores the depth of what gaslighting is and where it comes from. All of us have done the gaslighting thinking we were doing the right thing, it isn't about being a gaslighter or not. It's about having warped perception, which this video can create if you follow it explicitly.

This was very fitting when my toxic ex who damaged my image or good name came back via email. he is very kind, the content of his message is very good, but for some reason my instincts say that it makes me really anxious and think about things or responsibilities that are not necessary, he makes me not focus on this world, I feel like everyone in this world is hostile to me, I feel like I am not self-confidence and questioning whether I am good, am I doing the wrong thing? Am I evil? why don't I trust myself. Am I wrong in this world while everyone else is right?

The best way i can put it is this: you only get one life. Be who you feel you should be and don't apologize for it (because even if it seems like others are wondering why you do the things you do; its as YTer alpha m. Aka Aaron marino describes; be the best friend to yourself that you can be - because there will never be another you [according to mel Robbins]) and obviously, it is important to not be reckless - byt to fundamentally stay true to your core values; and as complex as all of this might seem ... or just a bunch of waffle talk; its really good real world advice; something that a lot of mainstream media is choosing to ignore, or only prefers to cover when its convenient for them...and in all fairness; if i cant even follow my own advice, im probably actually the one gaslighting myself...😅....and shame on me if i fail to realize that; and hopefully me thinking this way in a unselfishly selfish manner isnt the latest form of narcissism...but tbh, narcissism and gaslighting has varying levels of interpretation - very much in the same way instant gratification, pleasures, and other impulses have varying levels of frequency - much like how entitlement and privileges have many different meanings - or ambiguity. Same for ambivalence - or simply put: mixed feelings or emotions.

I’ve dealt with gaslighters before. I felt like I had to put myself, my beliefs, and my opinions aside while I was dealing with it and put everyone else’s perceptions as my own, even if it wasn’t the gaslighter. And I also remember saying that I wanted to be a teacher cuz this happened in high school and my gaslighter was a teacher, and I thought that that was the only career option that she would approve of for me. Even though I didn’t really want to teach, I started to believe I did. And I’m also a Christian, and she made me put my religious beliefs aside and made me think they weren’t real beliefs. After I graduated high school, I did an internship at a daycare and I did it for over a year. But then, Covid happened in the middle of it, so I had time to rediscover my own opinions and beliefs and interests. When I returned to my internship, I remember feeling very out of place there, but I kept going with it. But I would always do art whenever I wasn’t there, which made me feel more fulfilled and in my element, and I knew that I wanted to pursue it as a career, but still thought teaching was the only option for me. But a few semesters ago, I met with my advisor and we talked about careers I could have if I wanted to get into the art industry, and it opened many doors for me, so teaching is no longer in my career plan. And also, I’m a part of a Christian fellowship at my college now, and I’m realizing how much of a believer I really am, and I’m glad to know that I have a whole community of people who believe what I do. It does hurt to think about being gaslit, but now that I’ve had some distance from that person and haven’t seen her in years, and hopefully never again, I remind myself that what she said was false and that I’m allowed to have my own perceptions. And something else that I think we should all know about this is that if you’ve been through emotional manipulation before and are trying to move on from it, there will be days when you think about how awful it was, but other days when you think about how glad you are that you came out of it on the other side and how much life you have ahead of you that doesn’t involve that person from your past. Moving on isn’t a linear process. You’ll feel happy, sad, angry, afraid, and all the emotions after your situation, and it’s ok to have all of them. You went through a traumatic experience, and it can be very difficult to process after you went through it, but I promise, everything will be okay.

That's a completely understandable concern. Finding the right therapist is a crucial part of successful therapy, and it's natural to wonder if your current one is the best fit. While we can't make specific judgments about your situation, we can offer some tips to help you navigate this: 1) Talk to your therapist - Do you feel comfortable honestly expressing your concerns or asking questions directly? Consider scheduling a session to discuss your doubts and see if there's room for improvement. 2) Evaluating Progress - Are you making progress towards your goals? Therapy should be a collaborative effort. Do you feel like your therapist is actively listening and tailoring treatment to your specific needs? 3) Comfort and Fit: Do you feel comfortable discussing personal issues with your therapist? Does their communication style resonate with you? If you feel judged or unheard, it might be a sign to seek a different fit. 4) Considering a Change: If you're hesitant to change therapists, here's what might help: The "Why" Behind Hesitation: Is it fear of starting over, concern about losing progress, or simply feeling comfortable with the routine? Identifying the reason can help you decide how to proceed. Finding a New Therapist: Many resources can help you find a qualified therapist who's a good fit.

@@Psych2go Thank you psych2go. I found a therapist from the psychological support in Open University. She's someone who gave a positive impression at the 1st(only) appointment but other than that all the psychiatrists and therapists that I've met in our country seemed to not listening, sometimes making me angrier because of expressing their opinions over what I really felt even without listening. Still my psychiatrist gives me the feeling of incompleteness because whenever I explain my issues, he gets annoyed and forcefully change it by saying something else. I think it's more a characteristic of gold digging because if I won't be able to tell what I want, he can drag that issue through more consultations.

One way you can deal with people who are gaslighting is to Plainly stating your boundaries without an explanation. Another way is to respond to gaslighting is to withdraw yourself from the situation.

Is it possible someone doing that and not know they are gaslighting you? Like it wasn't on porpose but end up doing it anyway? I think my mother does that with me but i just can't really understand what is really happening...i try to defend myself and end up beeing seen like a mean person (in her own words) I really wanted to understand if someone is capable of doing that without knowing it is doing because she always puts herself as a victim...

Sometimes when I do something small to my girlfriend. Maybe like leave the call after she’s being sassy and stuff then join back. She says stuff like “you don’t love me anymore” or “why do you hate me.” I’m unsure if this is gaslighting or just joking sround

I dont see the first one as gaslighting so much... Gaslighting is always intentional. The term is based on an old movie called "Gaslight". Watch that movie and youll probably get it a little better
