I Found An Interesting Article

A very interesting article on gaslighting vs communication.

How do you know if someone is just bad at communicating or they are gaslighting?

@SW-User misleading

@revenant I didn't write it. I didn't find it misleading either.

Oh that's a great topic, one I think about a lot really. Does the article shed more light then the title does or can we extrapole on our own from there?

@Elegy Its one that I believe is not very well understood. What I like about it is that it gives real life examples that people could draw parallels to.
Its a 3 part article, but only 2 have been published. I didn't want to lose the link and hence I appended it.

Gaslighting is abusive.

Have you read Controlling People? It is absolutely resourceful. @SW-User

@Spoiledbrat No. But I've read enough content on manipulation and control.

@SW-User To me it's a bit difficult to grasp what the author is saying. Probably because I haven't experienced any accurate examples.

He’s saying by withholding a truth it can upset someone else. @Classified

@Spoiledbrat That seems only a little part of the article

Gaslighting is not a good thing at all
