This is because the gaslighter/perpetrator is an expert at identifying the supposed deficiencies in another person and hardly ever acknowledges or takes personal responsibility for the impact of their own statements or behavior. “You’re making yourself the victim when I’m the one who should be mad”ĭo you notice an overarching theme in the above statements? Many gaslighting statements start with the word you.“Why should I believe you? Everyone knows you’re full of it”.“That never even happened.” “This is what happened…” or “this is what I said…”.“I was joking! You take everything personally”.“You’re acting crazy” or “you’re overreacting”.“Nothing you’re saying makes sense, do you even hear yourself?”.“You’re making a big deal out of nothing, like always”.“You know you sound insane right now, right?”.Regularly feeling misunderstood and alone.Sensing something is wrong, but feeling like you’re not able to “put your finger on it”.Feeling like you constantly have to back up your reasoning/views of things with an abundance of facts.
