Hi all. Currently dealing with not only a recent PTSD diagnosis from emotional abuse I endured from an ex-friend, but their persistent efforts to paint me as a liar for the last 9 months. How do you deal with both the pain of abuse, manipulation and the PTSD that comes with that, while having your reality constantly invalidated? Luckily, I've only lost one friend over her attempts to pain me as such, but it feels like it is taking me five steps back in my healing process being constantly gaslit about what I experienced. It's more than invalidating, it makes me feel crazy, it makes me feel like I can't trust myself. Abusers do be doing this so was wondering if any of you had or are having a similar experience and how you deal.

Sorry you are going through this. She is gaslighting you.
You need to get her out of your orbit so you can heal. Protect yourself. You matter! |
