A broken mirror lying on the forest floor, reflecting tall trees in a foggy, eerie landscape, symbolizing the distortion of reality caused by gaslighting.

Gaslighting and self-trust are deeply intertwined, shaping how we perceive reality and our ability to believe in ourselves. The slow erosion of self-trust through gaslighting often happens in subtle, almost imperceptible ways—dismissive comments, rewritten memories, or even the silent cues of disapproval. Over time, these small moments compound, leading to a constant state of self-doubt. In Breaking Free: Gaslighting and Self-Trust, I explore my own journey of unlearning, rebuilding trust in myself, and reclaiming my sense of reality. Healing doesn’t happen overnight, but each moment of standing firm in our truth is a step toward freedom.
