How Gaslighting Works
What Your Partner May Do:
Do you often feel that your partner’s actions don’t match their words or promises, creating questions about their intentions?
Does your partner accuse you of being dramatic or overly sensitive if you express your feelings?
Do you find yourself doubting your memory or sanity to due to contradictions presented by your partner?
Does your partner often dismiss or belittle your feelings or opinions as crazy or irrational?
Does your partner project their own negative emotions and behaviors onto you, like accusing you of lying or cheating when they are the ones doing this?
Does your partner often minimize your successes and/or make fun of your achievements or dreams?
Does your partner insist that you misremember events, even when you are certain of the facts?
Does your partner make you feel selfish for wants and needs within the relationship?
Does your partner tell you that you don’t really feel a certain way, making you doubt your own feelings.
Does your partner make you feel that you are always to blame and that you can’t do anything right?
What You May Feel:
Constant Self-Doubt: When someone repeatedly twists your words, questions your memory, or undermines your choices, you start second-guessing yourself.
Guilt for Having Needs: gaslighting includes guilt-triping or play the victim. Over time, you begin to feel selfish or wrong simply for having boundaries or expressing needs.
Isolation from Support: Triangulation and subtle undermining can push you away from friends or family who might validate your experiences, leaving you feeling alone.
Emotional Exhaustion: Managing their moods and walking on eggshells drains you. You may feel like you’re always “on alert” and never truly at rest.
Loss of Identity: The slow erosion of confidence leaves you wondering: Who am I, really? Your voice feels smaller, your choices shakier, and your sense of self less certain.
If you're ready to finally understand what happened—and begin the slow, steady work of getting you back—I'm here.
You're not broken. You're healing.
