Gaslighting

I feel like my fucked immediate family and my personal
problems caused by BPD are making it look and feel like I am
gaslighting my girlfriend. I'm terrified because her Dad has
been a real fucking example and an alcoholic for as long as
she can remember. She's very sensitive to this gaslighting
behavior and rejects me when the whole package of
gaslighting seems to appear.

what's BPD? big penis disorder? Is gaslighting a kinky
thing?

It means taking it up the bum, I think. Which could causes
issues if the Big Penis Disorder was an extreme case.

No wonder she's so sensitive to it and rejects it when his
whole package appears.

There should be more awareness raised about couples
afflicted by both gaslighting and BDP.

*Shudder*, I only hope they can get the help they need.

I have an image of gaslighting in my head, a dangerous yet
erotic act involving a lit match in the japs eye and a
partner with very active flatulence.

seems you have a healthy (regular) dose of impostor syndrome
and anxiety. possibly unhealthy. or it's just your BPD
speaking

(i am not a psychiatrist disclaimer)

The term has become quite popular lately. Of you really ae
gaslighting her, then stop! Stop being an arsehole,
borderline or not! A start would be telling her what
you’re telling us.

glad to hear it! i've always believed that the best remedy
for paranoia and such is actual, real information. talking
and communication is the best way to handle these sort of
fings

I deal with consistent neglect which is either self made or
real.
Mid 20's right now. I have a feeling that this is an age
people do not give a fuck about.

Everyone gets teased here. I was trying to be humorous not
nasty. I guess xlt isn’t he best place to come to for
sympathy though.

If I had one piece of advice for you it would be not to
expect from others, and to be happy with yourself. It’s
tough though. I’m only starting to get there and compared
to you I’m old!

We tend to expect from others, and of course we get
disappointed.

he is not bothered by disrespect and endures cruel words,
treats others with respect regardless of how others treat
him;
when confronted by an angry person he does not return anger,
instead replies with soft and kind words;
even if tortured, he speaks and trusts the truth;
he does not crave for blessings or expect praise from
others;
he never injures or harms any life or being (ahimsa), he is
intent in the welfare of all beings;[97]
he is as comfortable being alone as in the presence of
others;
he is as comfortable with a bowl, at the foot of a tree in
tattered robe without help, as when he is in a mithuna
(union of mendicants), grama (village) and nagara (city);
he doesn’t care about or wear ṣikha (tuft of hair on the
back of head for religious reasons), nor the holy thread
across his body. To him, knowledge is sikha, knowledge is
the holy thread, knowledge alone is supreme. Outer
appearances and rituals do not matter to him, only knowledge
matters;
for him there is no invocation nor dismissal of deities, no
mantra nor non-mantra, no prostrations nor worship of gods,
goddess or ancestors, nothing other than knowledge of Self;
he is humble, high-spirited, of clear and steady mind,
straightforward, compassionate, patient, indifferent,
courageous, speaks firmly and with sweet words.

(ampi max will be beating my ass)

gasligting is an important concept to know about. it's
something that happens in interpersonal relationships. but
also you can view as gaslighting what big multinationals are
doing to society and the environment while presenting the
image that they're 'enlightened': a new religion or sense of
community

you can be gaslighted and respond to that calling them
crazy, i dont think you are the butcher in that case

I think humans of the not so distant future are going to go
through a very dark period in history where fact gets
indistinguishable from fiction especially the way things can
be manipulated from neural nets, makes you wonder how much
of that is already being implemented
