Gaslighting is a tactic someone uses to control and undermine someone while making themselves feel more powerful. Examples of people who gaslight are narcissists, abusers, or people high in power. They will start messing with your head after they tell you a lie. They tell you lies just as often or more often than the truth so the victim will believe them the entire time. If you catch them in a lie they will deny it. If you don't have any proof such as an old text message to show them, it's hard to win the argument with them. If you do find evidence of what they said wasn't true, they will try to convince you that you are wrong. They will do this by trying to convince you that you don't remember things correctly. They will do anything in their power to twist the truth so you have no way of proving your point. If you are being gaslighted you might feel kind of fatigued or depressed around them.
