Gaslighting seems very trendy right now. I see and hear about it all over the place. It was coming up a lot in the practice so I thought I'd share the article I found that clearly explains the term.
The term and it's frequent use is a newer thing, but actually dates back to the 1930's and 40's, referencing the title of a 1938 play and a 1944 film titled Gaslight in which a husband conceals his search for his wife’s aunt’s missing jewels by making his wife doubt herself. He tells her that the sounds in the attic she hears, and the dimming gas lights around their home, are imaginary.
The term “gaslighting” came to represent the type of manipulation the characters portray in the film.
I read most of the article for you in this episode and at the end I discuss with you the possibility that you are gaslighting yourself.
Have a listen and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
