What is gaslighting? #narcissism

They don't just deny YOUR reality - they deny REALITIES reality.

If somebody says they never said that when they did, it is the end of conversation and respect

Those type of people don’t have “insight”! They can’t recognize their own problems. Instead they blame others!

The best part is when they accuse you of gaslighting them repeatedly

Also they accuse you of doing exactly what they are doing and then act as if you actually did something

They deliberately lie about their lie.

Please keep teaching people about this .my friend ended up in serious danger . Managed to get herself out but it was a long road back

Leaving my kid's dad was the BEST thing I did for us. Wish these youtubes were around back then. This clip rings so many bells. 😢

I actually bought a recorder to record my narcissistic ex. Got divorced 14 years ago then found an awesome woman who I've been with for 8 years now. Life is so much better without having to deal with toxic people.

I started to record him. When he denied what he said, I played the recording. His response went from denying to “so what? Do you have a problem with me saying that? And why do you record everything?”

I lived with a roommate who was a major narcissist a few years ago. I'm glad he's gone now because I had to do that exact thing when talking to him, which I thought was just ridiculous. Needless to say, I feel MUCH better now, with no roommates at all, especially him!

That advice needs to be publicized worldwide.

Facts, and narcissists will always flip it on you. Start to make you think you’re the one tripping.

And if they can't deny they said it, they say maybe I did but you took it all wrong and you're too emotional.

I totally agree with everything this woman says. She hit the nail on the head with me. I had to figure out for myself the person I was talking to for a few years. We became close (no intimacy). Then after a while I noticed if we had disagreements he'd be the first to try to make me doubt what I said. Saying you're hearing me wrong, or you're the one with the problem or you have issues. When I'd call him out and pin point him down in a calm manor.. he'd keep quiet for a few seconds so would I. Then he'd say, I think we need a break. Meaning time away from each other. I guess he thought I'd be devastated by what he said. He waited for my response and I just said when I hang up the phone it will be the end of you. You're a narcissist, I'm not playing your games I know all about you. He then said, "wait" maybe we can , then he said I'm sorry which he found it hard to say at anytime to me. He started to go on talking while I quietly hung up the phone on him. Later the next morning at 5am I received this long text message from him. You know what ? I didn't even read it. I was DONE with him. I deleted the text and was so happy I did. I told him in an email his text was deleted. I blocked him on email, texting and blocked his calls. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders ! It feels so good. Well guess what, I found out he's in a relationship with someone who is a complete narcissist omg. How do too narcissists make it together unless he simps down to her, I would totally disrespect that in him. Let him be someone else's problem.

This is my supervisor 💯%!! She makes me hate going to work!!

16 yrs of me saying sorry and going to counseling because i was continually told im the reason that our marriage was not working..now 8yrs divorced and no antidepressants, no counseling, no stress, no gaslighting...Im very happy and live an almost stress free life...its wonderful and i now know im good enough and never needed her acceptance or approval to have happiness

It cutting to the sofa is killing me😂

Holy. Wow. I knew it. I have numerous voice memos, because of this. I can’t bare to listen to them ever, but they’re there for my protection and validity.💗

One of my FAVORITE gaslights from a previous relationship: "you're twisting my words"
