    “That’s the game my dear Lucette!”
    (What is happiness?)
    “Beef, the taste of being together.”
    (What is religion?)
    “Because you’re worth it.”
    (Who am I?)

    Do you always feel the need to apologise in your relationship? Does it make you anxious? 
    Are you led to believe that you’re crazy? 
    Do you know someone who has the power to make you feel guilty, trapped and confused? 
    Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse that occurs in abusive relationships. It’s the act of manipulating a person by forcing them to question their thoughts, memories, and the events that occur around them. A victim of gaslighting can be pushed so far that they question their own sanity. 
    Gaslighting can happen in many types of relationship, including those with bosses, friends and parents; but probably the most devastating form of gaslighting is when it occurs in a relationship between a couple. 
    Have you been led to believe that you’re crazy by someone who is, in fact, crazy? 
    My clients often ask me: 
    ◆ What is it that turns people into gaslighters? 
    ◆ What is a gaslighter personality? 
    ◆ Why does a narcissist gaslight? 
    ◆ What are some common gaslighting techniques? 
    ◆ What are some steps you can take if you are being gaslighted? 
    ◆ How do you know if you are a victim of emotional abuse by gaslighting? 
    ◆ How do you deal with a gaslighter? 
    ◆ How should I respond a gaslighter’s mind games? 
    ◆ Can I get out of this nightmare? 
    ◆ How can I find myself again? 
    ◆ How can I recover after years of power games, control and manipulation? 
    The topics and concepts described in this book are functional and practical and will have a direct impact on your life, both in romantic and non-romantic relationships. You don't need to be an expert on the subject; just take a deep breath, relax that knot in your stomach and grab this book!
