Sometimes, support from friends and family isn't enough to help you manage a toxic situation. Oftentimes, resolution won’t work (with #clusterB individuals). Consider talking to a mental health professional like a psychologist, therapist, or counselor.

If you think you are being gaslit (rather than having poor communication or a healthy disagreement), try to talk things out with the other person. Communicate your needs and set clear boundaries.

Healthy #relationships and interactions shouldn’t have gaslighting behaviors. Look for signs of gaslighting in your relationships. Try talking with a friend who might help you to see the situation more clearly.

Gaslighting happens in doctor's offices and hospitals, too. Often it takes the form of the doctor not listening to you or not taking your concerns seriously.

After someone has been gaslighting you for a while, you might start to doubt your feelings and memories. You might wonder if you imagined the events in question or if you're being too sensitive.

Gaslighters use many techniques to gain power over you. One method is to deny something they said or did. If you question their version of events, they pretend to forget or accuse you of misremembering.

Like other types of #abuse, gaslighting is a way to gain control over someone else, a situation, or the gaslighter’s own discomfort. Example: a gaslighter might shift the focus of an unpleasant conversation away from themselves by suggesting that the other person is at fault.

It’s from the 1938 play Gas Light, which was turned into a 1944 movie starring Charles Boyer and Ingrid Bergman. Boyer plays a scheming husband who tries to convince his wife that she's lost her mind.

Lately, everyone from politicians to celebrities seem to be talking about gaslighting. But what is it? The term is often used incorrectly to describe any argument someone doesn't agree with. But real gaslighting can be a form of #emotionalabuse.
