By understanding the compelling force involved, you can be a catalyst for change and actually become a spell-breaker. Once the spell is broken and the controller sees others as they really are, a genuine connection can be forged and healing can occur. Should you ever find yourself in the thrall of someone close to you, Controlling People is here to give you the wisdom, power, and comfort you need to be a stronger, happier, and more independent person. |

| patricia evans the verbally abusive relationship: Gaslighting & Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Don Barlow, 2021-02-28 Break free from the lies and manipulation that are keeping you captive You're positive you saw a flirty text from another woman on your husband's phone. Yet, when you confront him, he tells you you're imagining things and being paranoid. A co-worker sarcastically mentions that you're not contributing enough to the big project. When you get offended, they say they were just joking and that you're too sensitive. Your mother constantly criticizes your weight. When you bring up her comments around other people, she denies ever saying them and says you are making up stories. Have you repeatedly found yourself in these types of situations where you end up doubting yourself? They might have occurred with different people, in different circumstances, but the way they make you feel is the same. Your feelings are trivialized, your thoughts are manipulated, and your reality is denied. When this is done to you repeatedly, you begin to feel confused or even crazy. You are left questioning your own reality and sanity. These are classic signs that you're being gaslighted, and it's something to take very seriously. Gaslighting is a covert form of abuse that affects your confidence and trust in yourself, which the abuser then takes advantage of to keep you under their control. Whether it's a spouse, parent, or co-worker, it's hard to break loose from the grip of a gaslighting manipulator. You will need to know how gaslighters operate, how their behavior is affecting you, and how you can reclaim your truth. In Gaslighting & Narcissistic Abuse Recovery, you will discover: ● The sneaky tactics gaslighters employ that catch you off-guard and make you more vulnerable to their exploitation ● How to hold on to your grip on reality, despite the gaslighter's efforts to undermine it ● Powerful ways to respond to gaslighters, block their attacks, and take back control of the conversation ● Why self-care is a critical component in coping with abuse, especially if you need to regularly interact with a gaslighter ● The shift in mindset to help you finally gain the courage to escape an abusive relationship ● What you need to do after leaving a gaslighting relationship to make sure you don't fall into the same cycle again ● Why you shouldn't expect any closure from your abuser, and why you can still move on without it ● How to rebuild your sense of self after years of being torn down by others And much more. Acknowledging that you're being abused is the first step towards recovery. After years of gaslighting, you may be so used to it that you no longer recognize this is not a normal way to live. You might believe that there's no way out, or you can't imagine life without the one who's manipulating you. But if you truly want to be able to live life on your own terms, cutting yourself off from the source of your pain is essential. It won't happen overnight, and it will take committed effort, but you can feel like yourself again - the person you used to be... the person you're meant to be. |
