Summary

Today we explore the complex and insidious world of gaslighting, a form of psychological manipulation that distorts your perception of reality and undermines self-trust. We dive deep into the mechanics of how gaslighting operates, as well as how this emotional abuse can make you doubt your senses, experiences, and even your sanity. Drawing from both psychological theories and real-life stories, we discuss the importance of reality testing and why it's crucial to trust your intuition. Learn how to identify the red flags of gaslighting and the steps to rebuild mental health, grounded in a trustworthy relationship with yourself.
