A carefully produced edition of Emerson's most famous essay. Beware of other publishers' slapdash editions.

This guy narrates it much better than the other ones I've sampled on here! Also, the book is really good. There's a lot of things I agree with, and a lot I disagree with. But I think its helping me get to my core as a person.

Gaslighting is an insidious form of emotional abuse and manipulation that is difficult to recognize and even harder to break free from. That’s because it plays into one of our worst fears — of being abandoned — and many of our deepest needs: to be understood, appreciated, and loved. In this groundbreaking guide, the prominent therapist Dr. Robin Stern shows how the Gaslight Effect works and tells you how to turn up your Gaslight Radar, so you know when a relationship is headed for trouble.

Sexist
Revisado: 07-18-20
This book is really really sexist. Apparently Gaslighting can only happen to women. I went through severe gaslighting during an 8 month relationship 3 years ago and I just recently found out that the real cause of multiple mental health diagnoses and years of pain and confusion was from her gaslighting me, and when I read the first two chapters of the book, the forward author, and the author of the book itself just talked about how "even the most confident woman" can be brought down by gaslighting, and "several women" have made it through, etc. It would be just as easy to say person. When I read this, everytime I hear the author say "women who..." it makes me feel invalidated as a man that I've had many of the same things happen to me. It's like she's assuming "all women are good. Only men will gaslight". That's blatant sexism. As a human being who's had this problem and is trying to recover from it, I don't want to be gaslighted even more by the author, who's acting like this is only a problem for women, and always hearing the men are at fault. I'm seeking help for this problem, and her sexism is doing the opposite. I understand if most of the people she's had as clients were women, so it would make sense to use "her" or "she" when talking about clients. But, also saying only "women" when talking about people who could be gaslighting is gaslighting in itself. This is emasculating and complete bullshit.

Millions of people, both men and women, can become involved in relationships with manipulators, people who control through emotional manipulation, insults, and mind games. These "toxic" relationships erode self-esteem and make life miserable for the victim.

Massively Helpful

I was manipulated by a girlfriend who I was in an 8 month relationship with over 3 years ago. During the relationship, I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety, and I was convinced that those where just lifelong problems that were going to develop no matter what I did, and a lit of other things too. But the majority of what happened was that I was manipulated into believing those things by her, and was manipulated into trusting and believing her instead of myself. Then when I realized the relationship wasn't healthy and wanted to break up, she spread rumors about me and convinced a ton of people to gaslight me. It wasn't until recently that I learned that I actually never had depression or anxiety problems before her, and that I most likely developed those as a byproduct of being so strongly manipulated!
The book gives great advice and tells you how to see it in other people and what to do if they're trying to manipulate you. As for now, I'm happy with regaining my locus of control and know that I only became unsure of myself after the "relationship" started. Now it's just to trust myself again more and start being fully reliable to myself.
