The Insidious Art of Reality Distortion
Have you ever left a conversation feeling crazy, despite being certain of what you experienced? This psychological manipulation has a name: gaslighting. Far more sinister than ordinary lying, gaslighting aims to make you doubt not just specific perceptions, but your fundamental ability to perceive reality accurately. The term originated from the 1944 film "Gaslight," where a husband systematically manipulates his wife by hiding her belongings and denying the dimming gaslights she observes-all while expressing concern for her mental state. What makes gaslighting particularly destructive is its gradual nature. It typically begins with small distortions-"I never said that" or "You're misremembering"-before escalating to more significant reality-bending assertions that leave victims questioning their sanity.
