Redditors Share What Gaslighting Feels Like & How They Overcame It

Meenu Katariya

Gaslighting is when someone tries to manipulate you by distorting the truth and making you question  your identity. While it may not be as visible as other types of abuse but gaslighting can be really damaging.

It doesn’t just happen in romantic relationships, but also in families, friends and at work. Most of the times we do not realise that it’s happening with us.

From being unable to realise to overcoming gaslighting, a few people shared their experiences on Reddit.
