Am I crazy, or are they gaslighting me?


A BFTB listener named Jade called into the pod because she’s been made to feel like the “crazy one” in her relationship. Naturally, I felt this called for an entire episode on gaslighting and high-conflict couples.

■ Understanding Gaslighting: What it is and its Effects
