  • manipulate (someone) by psychological means into questioning their own sanity: Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse in which a person or group causes someone to question their own sanity, memories, or perception of reality. People who experience gaslighting may feel confused, anxious, or as though they cannot trust themselves.Gaslighting is a method of gaining control over someone else. It works by breaking down a person’s trust in themselves while increasing how much they trust or depend on the abusive person.
    In relationships, gaslighting often begins gradually. The abusive person gains their partner’s trust, sometimes with an initial “honeymoon period” in which there is no abusive behavior. Then the person begins suggesting that their partner is not reliable, that they are forgetful, or that they are mentally unstable.
    Over time, this can cause people to question if their partner is right. The more this happens, the more power and influence the abusive person has.
    Unable to trust themselves, the person may start to rely heavily on their partner to recall memories or make decisions. They may also feel they cannot leave. Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse in which a person or group causes someone to question their own sanity, memories, or perception of reality. People who experience gaslighting may feel confused, anxious, or as though they cannot trust themselves.
    What is Gaslighting and where does the term come from? Gaslighting is when someone manipulates you into questioning your mental health and reality. The term originated from the 1938 play, Gas Light (which has two film adaptions). It centers around a husband who attempts to drive his wife crazy by dimming the lights in their home (the lights ...) What does the term gaslighting refer to?


    Gaslighting — what are the signs and how can it be addressed? Gaslighting is a term that refers to trying to convince someone they’re wrong about something even when they aren’t. Most commonly, it takes the form of frequently disagreeing with someone or refusing to listen to their point of view. Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or a group covertly sows seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or group, making them question their own memory, perception, or judgment.Do you question whether or not what you remember is real? Do you often doubt yourself and your perception of things? These can be signs that you're a victim of a technique called "gaslighting." Gaslighting is an insidious form of manipulation that makes a person second-guess their memories and feelings, lose their confidence, and even question their sanity. Knowing how to recognize gaslighting and what to do about it can free you from its trap.What Is Gaslighting

    Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse wherein someone causes another person or group to question their thoughts, memories, and perception. The aim of gaslighting is to control and manipulate the other person in a covert manner that is hard to detect. Gaslighting is a serious issue because it can undermine your sense of self-worth, trigger anxiety and depression, and make you overly dependent on the gaslighter.
    People who are the targets of gaslighting over an extended period may feel like they are losing their sanity. They start to question their judgment and ability to separate reality from fiction. They may start to lean heavily on the gaslighter for guidance, support, and stability, causing a complete imbalance of power within the relationship.
    Usually, gaslighting techniques start so small they're barely noticeable. Maybe your partner informs you that you didn't put an item where you're sure that you did. Or that you're misremembering something that you overheard. Since we want to think the best of our loved ones, we may brush off these situations as simple misunderstandings.
    However, over time, the person using these techniques weaves a deceptive web around you that makes you feel like you're inferior to them. Gaslighting is all about gaining power and control over someone else in an attempt to make up for deficiencies the gaslighter perceives in themselves.
    Gaslighting techniques include:
    • Denying comments they said or things they did, even when you confront them directly. The gaslighter may deny these assertions so vehemently that you question your memory.
    • Lying, even about small matters. A gaslighter is usually a skillful, practiced liar.
    • Questioning your recollection of events or conversations.
    • Making you feel like you're too sensitive or that your needs are insignificant.
    • Pointing out every flaw and mistake that you make and magnifying their severity.
    • Reframing their negative behavior in a way that reflects positively on them while shifting the blame onto you.
    • Refusing to listen to your thoughts or feelings. ("We'll talk about that later," but later never comes.) Where Did The Phrase Originate? The term "gaslighting" comes from a 1938 play called "Gaslight," later a movie starring Ingrid Bergman, in which lamps in the main character's house dim at random intervals. This was caused by the character's husband sneaking around in the attic at night. As he hunted for his wife's family jewels, the attic's lamps would pull gas away from the other lights in the house, causing them to lower.
      When the wife comments that the gaslights appear dimming, he tells her it's her imagination. Throughout the story, the husband manipulates his wife into thinking she's losing her mind to hide his true intentions. This term caught on in the psychology world and is now commonly used to describe the pattern of behavior described above.
      Who Uses Gaslighting?

      Gaslighting is an insidious technique that is more common than many people realize. It can appear in many relationships, including between parents and children, bosses and employees, and even between friends. Gaslighting patterns can also affect larger groups. Cult leaders have been known to use gaslighting techniques to indoctrinate their followers. Some politicians may use gaslighting techniques to sway people in their favor.
      The most common occurrence of gaslighting is among romantic couples. At first, your love interest may seem like the kindest person in the world, but if you recognize them as using gaslighting techniques, pay attention to these red flags.
      It's important to note that not every person who uses gaslighting techniques is an abuser, especially if they learned the previous relationship's behavior. If the instances of gaslighting are mild and infrequent, there may be hope.
      However, in most cases, gaslighting is a sign of an abusive relationship. Most people who gaslight are very aware of how they are manipulating their victim. It is their goal to strip the other person or people of their power to feel a sense of control and superiority.
