I came across your episode about the 15 gaslighting phrases that’s a few years old now. I’m sitting in the salon getting hair done and listening on my AirPods after trying to recover from the latest attack from my now former partner on my emotions, sense of self and reality. This episode helped me to feel seen and not crazy. Thank you for your transparency. Dating someone like this who gaslights you is a night mare and I’ve been looking for connection to help and not many understand. My friends don’t want to hear it anymore and it’s just hard. Thank you for this episode.

I just listened to your episode on covert narcissism and your description fits a person I had recently called a “friend” to a T. It was confusing because like you said, it’s sometimes harder to recognize. Thank you for the clarification and validation.

Ok, i've listened to a lot of pods about trauma, but something about this one really hit home. I have been struggling with PTSD for years, but I now realize why I am not getting any better thanks to this pod. Really well done.
