  • Recognising one's worth and staying confident in their truth is a powerful defence against gaslighting.
  • Creating a supportive and empathetic environment is crucial in combating gaslighting in relationships.
  • Gaslighters try to make the victim stay in the conversation to deepen the gaslighting and make them more vulnerable.
