Another thing I’m sick of is men gaslighting me because I’m mentally ill. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard “you are just making stuff up in your head, you struggle mentally” and honestly I don’t even trust myself anymore. I don’t trust my own thoughts or things I’m seeing/hearing. I found out one of my ex’s was cheating on me by ya know looking through his phone and SEEING it and he told me I made it up in my head and I still to this day don’t know if I really saw it or if I just made it up. My current boyfriend said something that upset me and I brought it up to him and he stated “I didn’t say that” when I swore I heard him say it and his response was “you can’t remember anything” which I’m super confused about because I heard him say it I know I did. At least I think I did. I honestly don’t know anymore..

The same thing had happened to me. When you’re gaslit and have pre-existing mental illness it’s more believable that you are just crazy. I even increased my medicine.

You need to have people in your life who you can trust.

It’s not you, it’s them. Especially when they throw your mental illness back into your face. Something similarly happened to me recently. It’s sad and dehumanizing. I’m sorry they put you through that. 😔

That’s horrible gas lighting is never okay and you should never have to put up with it. It’s definitely not you it’s them that’s the problem.
