Ever felt like you're losing your grip on reality in a relationship? You might be experiencing gaslighting. In this eye-opening episode of 'The Vegas Therapist', Ryan Wynder tackles the insidious tactic of gaslighting, a form of emotional abuse that can creep into any type of relationship—be it romantic, familial, or professional. Ryan starts by explaining what gaslighting is: a deliberate attempt to make someone question their own memory, perception, or sanity.
It's not just about lying; it's a slow, methodical process that can deeply affect one's mental health. Ryan walks listeners through the various signs and stages of gaslighting, including something he calls the 'GasLight Tango'.

But it's not all doom and gloom; Ryan also offers practical advice on how to 'turn off the gas'.
He discusses making the tough decision to stay or leave a gaslighting relationship and emphasizes the importance of seeking help from trusted friends or therapists. For anyone who suspects they might be a victim of gaslighting, this episode is a must-listen. Ryan's empathetic approach makes complex psychological concepts easy to understand, offering listeners the tools they need to protect their mental health.
