Was It Mean to Be Gaslighted?

Gaslighting is a process of manipulation in which the gaslighter denies reality and doubts the mental health of the other person. Over time, a gaslighted person starts to not only doubt reality, but they also doubt themselves. Gaslighting has a few parts to it: First, you trust him because he is your husband or at least you want to trust him. Then he repeatedly denies reality, denies your reality. He denies all reality, which confuses you. Then he tells you that you're impaired or stupid about money or have a mother who has mental illness. It's a systematic process of breaking you down so he can control you.

Best podcast app

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.

🤯 How amazing is this app?!
