Lisa has literally saved me from a lifetime of this from my mother, who also sexually abused me. Imagine getting a new lease on life from listening to Lisa's wisdom and experience! I am free at 60!

Not trusting your own mind makes you feel crazy. My mom is a narcissist and is an expert at gaslighting. It's created anxiety from a child to a 68 year old woman. Falling to sleep without going over every word every thought to question everything!!! It's exhausting.

[everlastinggobbstopper]

This is so true, I've fell victim to this. People that do this need to be held accountable and jailed. The anger that sits with you in the aftermath is excruciating when you realize what was done to you.

[seanrademeyer]

I was so naive and just had absolutely no clue people were capable of this. It really spun me for a loop so many times and made me feel absolutely crazy!

It makes me happy to see this is becoming recognized!

[janwakefield]

This is good news! Maybe one day people in my family will recognize our mother is a narcissists and I've been her scapegoat. My brother and sister don't see it. I'm going to move and I'm losing my siblings, not just my parents. It's a horrible feeling: grief

[MsCraftyWPB]

Another common phrase is, "I didn't say anything wrong."
I'm glad this made the word of the year! I would shrug off, "I was just joking", "I'm not taking a shot, it's just words." All the while feeling just icky about it. It didn't feel right. I'm 52 and realized my dad is this way. His saying, "you don't know what you're talking about." It's like nails on a chalkboard.

[mollysilverman]

Wow I’m only 1/3 of the way through and this has me pegged to a T. 😮I’m already shaking at the thought of going home today. He’s such a liar to everyone about me. I literally hide in my room all the time. I eat out unless I HAVE to cook for my teenager. I have to hide food. He leaves the kitchen a mess and tells everyone it’s ME. I’ve heard him. And I’m the one on medicine. WTF. It wasn’t me lives in my house as well. Wow, I’m shaking. Thank you for sharing this information ❤

[language-n-learning]

I'm convinced that OCD is a direct result of gaslighting and other narcissist-caused trauma. OCD is basically a lack of trust in yourself.

[sunnyadams]

You Are The Vanguard, Lisa!!! I thank God for you Every Single Day of my redeemed Life. Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!

[sonjapeterson]

The term gaslighting was derived from a movie title: Gaslight. It starred Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer, and it was about a husband tricking his wife into thinking she was losing her mind.

[debrabrickus]

That's interesting that gaslighting is the word of the year. I became aware of the word in June when I was gaslit very badly and cleverly by a so called best friend. She was so clever with her words that even if i told anyone that knows her they would not believe me. I'm keeping my mouth shut and of course no contact.

[AngelaEstesangiece]

I can help with this one. During my childhood, when I was really young, my parents would play “Lost.” Which consisted of them pretending to be lost and me being increasingly frightened. As an adult, someone asked me how I could be scared to be lost IF I WAS WITH MY PARENTS. It took me into this morning to realize that was also gaslighting (I already knew other stories that were more obvious due to intentions.). This was more confusing because: why? Until I realized why. They thought it was funny and entertaining, My reaction. So my reality was manipulated for their entertainment. They manipulated my reality for their own purpose. May this help someone else see more clearly. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[kristybeaudry]

Medical gaslighting. I was told by a medical professional that I was having anxiety when in fact I was having an allergic reaction to anesthesia. I was a victim of medical gaslighting.

[kaceymckown]

The BEST explanation of gaslighting I've EVER heard❤️ Describes EXACTLY what I finally just got out of. Omg. Thank you Lisa. So glad I found you 😊

[Nuverselive]

Shadow work has helped me find the positive side of this which is the fight we feel burning inside of us can be used as fuel to create your own self realized reality🔥 the next time someone gas lights you think of the song “ It wasn’t me by Shaba Ranks”! Lighten your heart, keep listening to Lisa and you’ll become a better version of yourself❤️‍🩹This is the beauty of self awareness 🪞

[sigrid]

Congratulations! This shows how important your work is, dear Lisa!

[Eliza.HawkeyeJane]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. The part of the definition for gaslighting is "long term control" really stood out for me. ❤✨💫 "In your relationships, one should not be confused when sharing doubting your feelings and defending your perception of reality." ❤✨💫

[julieanderson]

You are like a bright star in what feels like a dark sky. Your word keep me walking in the direction I need to go. Living amongst people who make everything your fault creates such a painful maniacal narrative

[mylifemosaic]

This was an herb tea and incense moment for me. I am so grateful to hear what I've been discovering about myself out loud. So many breakthroughs today. Putting words to experiences, feelings, emotions, are definitely essential. Gratitude for this and You✨️

[pamwatkins]

Glad to see you today and that you're there and I get to listen to one of your videos have a Merry Christmas Lisa
