If you’ve ever been involved with a narcissist, whether it was your husband or your mother or your co-worker, there’s one thing that they all have in common: the gaslighting attacks. Gaslighting, of course, is the pervasive manipulation technique that toxic narcissists use to control and manipulate the people around them and make them do as they want and need – to behave like a good little narcissistic supply.
Narcissists need you to feel dependent and crazy – like you’re not capable of making even the simplest decisions. In this video, I’ll explain 7 specific, under-handed gaslighting techniques that narcissists use to control and manipulate you – whether it’s at work, at home or in other social situations.

Angie. You are right on spot ! Every single thing you’ve described about gas lighting has happened to me .In the 14 years I had spent with him, he ha done them all.One time I remember he was working security at an apartment complex connected to the casino he worked at ,and I surprised him and came to visit. Well there was a pool, and a pool house on the property which is where he spent most of his time, and I saw this girl I worked with she was my bartender at work coming out of the pool house and he right behind her. I was like Whoa Did I just see that, or am I seeing things I saw him walk her out and when I finally saw him right away I confronted him. nd just as you said, he denied everything saying I cant see that far bla bla bla. This argument ensued for years and he still wouldn’t come clean. Another thing about narcs is that they will NEVER over their dead bodies come clean about infidelity. Never At least mine wouldn’t .I have positive proof and o this very day he says he never did anything to hurt me ! Ha at this stage of my recovery I am beginning to find him very funny, as the tactics they use on us are usually designed to be used on children, or retards !
