I want that book!! Thank you for the link.
I agree with what I saw in the preview; that it is emotional abuse.
I find that any type of abuse stems from power andcontrol dynamics.
Good grief, when I was with the xabf.....he would re-write to such an extent that the events he tried to gaslight me with bore so little resemblance to what really happened that I considered it too ridulous to resopond.
I totally ignored thinking...he was there, he knows the truth.
But since then I have learned that a person can tell a lie to the extent that they believe it.
I often wondered what was happening in his head when he was doing this.
I now believe that he meant to confuse me and mess with me, and that it was a challenge to see how I would react. And that underlying it, it was power and control.
Evenso, I felt very confused, and I actually troubled myself considering his warped version of things.
crazy-making!
I don't need it!
