My words here were effin harsh and i apologize. Everythin we have seems to be public and ruin what could be. I cant deny the audios i found shocked me a lil. I dont know how much is roleplay/invented and how much is real ofc. The comments under the audio didnt help. i just felt humiliated in that moment cuz they aint always nice.
Trust and honesty is the most important part about a relationship. It's sth that is built up over time from the moment folks enter a bond.
Every time there is a lie, one side will doubt the other person and become distrusting. It's a cycle of distrust fueled by a chain of untrue statements and people who need to involve themselves in a stranger's relationships by making unacceptable online comments.
And if this relationship happens to be a romantic one, one can be sure there will be a lot of arising problems if proper communication is missing, especially if both parties actually never met.
Gettin to know each other is a matter of mutual trust/interest and shouldnt take place online. At least not for that long and not in the eyes of the public.
I need to able to trust my friends and a potential partner. I cannot address potential lies etc. If both are not allowed to communicate like real people do. I wanna be able to sit down and talk honestly without the involvement of 3rd parties throwin rocks at us over the span of months.
All i wanted was an equal partner that knows how to communicate so we can build trust. Someone who asks me where my boundaries are. respects them and doesnt make a game out of our feelings. The fact it happens in public makes it all worse cuz ppl dont know how to not stick their nose into other ppl's relationship. Some just dont approve and will say anything.
I am far from perfect and sometimes bottle up my feelings. Especially if the girl i like is involved cuz i wanna trust her in knowin what she is doin. I dont appreciate strangers stickin their nose inside my relationship to the point they need to make comments that come across as cyberbullying.
I dont want my relationships to be displayed in public for everyone to comment on. especially when i know some folks dont like me regardless of what i do.
I wish i could ask her what her needs are. But there is no open communication. It's onesided. and it is not a good foundation for any type of relationship if communication is missing. Even worse for romantic ones. cuz it makes me doubt if they care for the well-being of our future.
Why not tell me what is goin on. why make us both fall asleep cryin when it doesnt have to be that way.
Where i come from people look each other in the eyes when start sth with one another. I am sure it is mostly like that in most parts of the world.
No idea what is happening. Genuinely. I cant tell u more than that.

I used to have an old online friends who cutted me out for a time. then brought me back. But this time i changed a lot and thanks to my best friend, she opened my eyes, and thanks to her i realized i was being gaslighted and manipulated by them telling me Stop being so emo. I am a person who doesnt like to joke around all the time and when i am not close with that person i dont rly joke and try to keep a healthy good and maybe a lil serious? conversations between. Sure enough i might joke from time to time but not all day long. They were trying that. bc of them again coming to my life the depression that i got better from a few months ago, was finding a leak again. I am happy i cutted them out quickly. We had many arguments but at the end when they were offline i sent a large message with reasons that why i am cutting them out. I also forgot to mention, once in a while i had no irl friends, meaning the time i didnt get close with my best friend. But now i had both close irl and online friends. AND THEY WERE DISRESPECTING THEM saying U have no friends or smth. As a person who is loyal and care abt my close friends and maybe even friends, i couldnt accept this and would get mad ofc. Please everyone look out for those types and cut them out the moment u feel uncomfortable.

Is it possible for your sister to gaslight you? Context is important so rq so my older sister let's call her M practically raised me she knows me better than I do M also says no that's not what happened you did this so then I did this even though I remember it being her who started it. Remember M basically raised me so I trust M more than almost anyone else (grandma grandpa and my bf) it seems like she's gaslighting me and I've called her out before and M said (me cause real name is a no no)-> A you're the one gaslighting ME I did NOTHING to you ugh know what go away you brat I can't deal with you right now so just go in the living room or something (shared bedroom) while you're at it go feed and water the animals then come back and maybe I'll forgive you (we have 5 chickens 2 dogs 5 cats) the chickens are M's fyi and she'll do this when M's angry or we're arguing with or just any situation where M has the upper hand. Writing this I'm starting to think she really might be. Advice? (I'm 14 so I can't move out and changing rooms or cutting M off is out of the question bc yk) honestly my therapist said it's all in my head so I'm not sure just want extra opinions

The Manipulated isolation is real & they achieve it thru several different tactics. The verbal & emotional abuse in itself, will cause isolation. Your self esteem is down, so you don't wanna be around others. Plus you don't know how to even try to explain what you're dealing with. & if you try, you know there's a good chance people will downplay it/you. Like you're embellishing or making a mountain out of a molehill. And (more than likely) the Gaslighter does not behave abusively in front of others, so you KNOW the odds are stacked against you. I struggled to believe it myself at first. Because of who he had presented himself to be. Which was nothing like the monster he quickly turned into. So I started recording it/him & that was the smartest thing I coulda done. Turns out it's damn near IMPOSSIBLE to Gaslight, when there's a play- back button involved! It's like the killswitch for any & ALL the lines they say. I didn't say that, You're overreacting, I'm not lying, etc. Recording = a Gamechanger! It allows you to keep your sanity

I know I feel I don't fit in, I know I feel second best, I know where I stand. I doubt myself all the time, however i am not prepared to sit back and let people take advantage of me, I am not letting people put me down anymore. Ive been spoken too like crap and I've had enough. Can't be bothered, dunno why I should give them attention, when they don't give it back. It works both ways, both make an effort for each other. Its not just one way. This is a wake up call and has enlightened me thank you. I've had enough, I don't need this in my life. I haven't got time for mind games, narcissists, people playing tricks on me, and manipulating me, writing about me on here, it needs to stop and its damaging. Have some flaming respect and stop hurting me and people need to stop interfering and keep their nosey beaks out of other people's business aswell. That ruins everything. I don't like people talking behind my back, and when people tell other people about me which is not true annoys me. They don't know me. People need to butt out.

I hope I dont get hate for this bit I have gaslighted without knowing about it. Turns out I had a complex disorder which sort of made me lose my mind in many ways. I thought control would help me. In the end my parents took me to a therapist. I lied to the therapist and to my parents which I am NOT sorry for considering they are unexplainably horrible. The therapist made me take pills and I never swallowed them and kept them under my tounge. I gaslighged and projected my disorders on the people I was gaslighting. It just kept getting worse and worse. But I am better now. Sort of. I no more gaslight people and I moved away from my original home. My parents are dead (car crash) and I live with me godfather. This is a warning to all those people being gaslighted. DO NOT trust easily. Have command over your mind and keep it strong.

I just went on a date with a gaslighting dude. The first few points definitely resonated with me. It was literally our first date and he picking at me saying I'm too technical and he didn't like the way my glasses looked. He though I was shy and I told him it's normal for an adult (I'm 26 and he's 31) to have walls and not trust people right away. He told me I was bitter and toxic and I tried asking him why and he was being super rude and tried walking away when I was trying to talk to him and made me cry. I woke up the next morning all sober and told him it was not going to work out and asked him to pay me back for the drinks I brought and he said no and I just lost it and cusses him out. I'm still recovering from all the shit he said to me and how terrible made me feel about myself but I'm glad I cut it off there.

My mom is the biggest gaslighter Ive ever known. Im about to be 38 years old and for the most part of my life Ive had this deep down fundamental belief that there was something inherently wrong with me because of how crazy she made me feel. Replaying events in my mind always asking myself like did I overreact? Maybe I am picking a fight Maybe I am being too sensitive - When in actual reality, I was responding appropriately to the situation. Its scary how gaslighters are so unconscious of their behaviors.

I think this is how a cult that wants control will do. I am surrounded by a lot of them that have done this to me, thankfully i made peace with their behaviors so it hasnt pushed me all the way to breakpoint yet. But this is something that really needs to be spread. There are cults everywhere who use this tactics, i am a victim of one. Unfortunately, i do not know how to get out of it. All i can do is see what they are trying to do to me, but i do not have the means to break free.

She would always say that's why you're dad didn't want you either or things negative about my relationship with the children from my previous relationship like you're a bad dad, but she runs off and ghosts me and goes from man to man no stability, one of the end of the day we're just not right for each other but instead of breaking up amicably like we should have she would rather tear me down cause drama and manipulate and try to make me feel like the villain.

Ive been treated like this by my roommate/ex best friend ever since the start of my start of my freshman year of college. I stopped hanging out after I realized she was manipulating me. She also did this to others as well. Everyone who knew her was experiencing the same things that I was. She also pressured the other people to do things that they didnt want to. including myself. Its really a shame that shes doing this and getting away with it.

30 years, it took me 30 years
i knew literally nothing else.
i know nothing and have no idea how to survive on my own.
my original plan to get away from them was to disappear into the woods and try and survive in the wild, because that i can understand.
Im 30 and i have no idea how to file taxes or get a job, applications are straight forward enough but it doesnt work. it never does
nothing ever works

Recently, I just realized that I was a victim of gaslighting by my friend. I trust him because he is my friend. However, after several weeks, I realized that he is toxic when he is telling me something, most of them are a lie. So I started to stop talking to him for my own good. I have these signs from the video so thanks for informing me because I thought it is always wrong with me.

Whats funny is that you never except gaslighting from the closest people in your life, blinded by love, you always give them excuses for gaslighting u without realising its a gaslight! and whats even funnier is that they will never admit its gaslighting even after you leave, its so sad to lose someone because of something so silly and easy to let go of

I went through gaslighting for 2 1/2 years and I ignored all the red flags in my relationship he is a Narcissist I feel so dumb for not knowing or, paying attention to all the red flags. He's now into his new supply. I feel like I'm walking in a dark cloud, I'm emotionally destroyed inside. I haven't felt this way since, my first ex husband years ago.

After a long search, I found the music used in this video.
Many people here asked for the music, not only Psych2go answered one individual that they will look into it and didn't come up with a reply but they didn't even bother adding the credits for the music on the video description.

I HATE GASLIGHTERS! I can't take the constant mind games, I'd actually prefer getting beat up, because at least if it's physical I know they're the enemy and I'm not imagining things, but if it's just mental, there's always the question on whether or not they are an abuser.

This helps and hurts so much. I've completely lost myself and anything resembling a foundation. She does all this to me and more. All I valued has been destroyed in an evidently pointless pursuit. The isolation is the worst.
Thx for the wake up call. Still sux tho. Ugh.

there is actually no one who can know you better than you do, faking concern over any natural or obvious disaster is a quick trick to escape accountability, people hardly can prove anything in actions so they use words against the people its easy to decipher
