Description

Gaslighting is emotional abuse and psychological manipulation that makes us question our memory, perception, and reality. In this video we define gaslighting, share everyday examples, and give tools to rebuild trust.

In this video you’ll learn:

- What gaslighting 'really'  is — and where the term comes from
- Everyday examples: families, relationships, workplaces, friendships
- Practical tools to recognize gaslighting, set boundaries, and rebuild confidence in your own reality

Gaslighting doesn’t just make you doubt the abuser — it makes you doubt yourself. You are not crazy. You are not imagining things. Your clarity is still inside you — and it’s time to turn the light back on. 💛
