Gaslighting often starts subtly and escalates over time. It can have profound effects on a victim's mental and emotional well-being. It is a form of psychological manipulation that undermine an individual's sense of reality, self-worth, and confidence.

The constant manipulation and self-doubt caused by gaslighting can make it difficult for victims to make decisions. They may fear making the "wrong" choice or doubt their ability to make sound judgments.

If gaslighting continues unchecked, it can lead to long-term psychological effects, including chronic anxiety, depression, complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD), and difficulties in forming healthy relationships in the future.

If you or someone you know is experiencing gaslighting, seeking support from friends, family, or mental health professionals is crucial to begin the healing process. Don't Suffer In Silence!
