The loved ones of alcoholics almost always experience gaslighting - the manipulative conversations alcoholics use to normalize excessive drinking.
Ever felt like you're losing your grip on reality because of a loved one's drinking? In this episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, Sheri and Matt Salis dive deep into the insidious world of gaslighting, a common manipulation tactic used by alcoholics to make their excessive drinking seem normal. Sheri opens up about her personal experience with Matt's gaslighting, sharing how it distorted her perception and eroded her trust.
Matt, on the other hand, explains why gaslighting is such a pervasive issue in alcoholic relationships and how it often happens without the alcoholic even realizing it. They don't just stop at identifying the problem; they also explore the long road to healing and rebuilding trust. This episode is a heartfelt discussion that offers both empathy and practical advice for anyone grappling with the psychological warfare that gaslighting brings.
