Gaslighting Examples From A Narcissist

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today, we talk about gaslighting. I'm amazed by the number of people who aren't sure what gaslighting is and don't even know they are being victims of it. To help me explain what gaslighting is and why it is a form of abuse, I'll share some situations I've experienced during my previous marriage with my ex-husband. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">What You Will Learn In This Episode:</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- What gaslighting is, and what makes it a form of abuse</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- Why, when we are being gaslighted, we doubt our sanity and our common sense</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- How my ex-husband went from potential murder to hero</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- Why we isolate ourselves when we are being gaslighted in our relationship</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When someone is being abused, their friends and relatives will most likely advise them to leave that relationship. In most cases, the abused won't leave their abuser, not because they don't want to, but because they can't, because being in an abusive relationship feels safer for the victim's system than being alone. Gaslighting is a form of abuse, and we must approach its victims with compassion and empathy. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Resources:</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- Join my Narcissistic Trauma Recovery Programme™</span> <a href= "https://go.carolinestrawson.com/heal-the-trauma-of-narcissistic-abuse"> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://go.carolinestrawson.com/heal-the-trauma-of-narcissistic-abuse</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- Join my Facebook group at</span> <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/thriveafternarcissisticabuse"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> https://www.facebook.com/groups/thriveafternarcissisticabuse</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- Connect with me
