25 - WHAT IS GASLIGHTING? DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE TRAUMA CAUSED BY GASLIGHTING? WHAT CAN YOU DO?

Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse. Do you think you have trauma caused by it?. What can you do?
Gaslighting is a term that social media made popular in the past year.
The term "gaslighting" can be traced back to a 1938 play. British playwright Patrick Hamilton created "Gas Light," a mystery/thriller that premiered in London and played there for six months. But most folks familiar with the history of the term think back to the 1944 film adaptation of the play, "Gaslight."
Gaslighting is a tactic whereby a person makes your doubt your sanity by causing you to question everything. You may not realize immediately if someone is gaslighting you because by its nature, it is a slow method of undermining your confidence. The end goal of the gaslighting is to make you question yourself so much that you are totally dependent on them.
A long term gaslighting can lead to trauma.
And remember,
Trauma equals Disconnect
Healing equals Reconnect
