Are you the adult child of dysfunction? Get started on your emotional healing journey with this FREE quiz: https://www.lisaaromano.com/quiz?utm_... If you were gaslit as a child, you may still be doubting yourself long after it ended. In this video I explain why, and how you can start trusting yourself again. I go through the 11 ways gaslighting can affect your ability to trust yourself as an adult. You'll hear why gaslighting makes you question your own reality, why you can still be arguing in your head with someone about something that happened 20 or 30 years ago, and why you correct yourself before anybody else gets the chance. I also share what it was like growing up with parents who denied what they said and told me I was making a big deal out of nothing. And I share what finally helped me trust my own perception again. This video is for adult children of alcoholics, narcissistic parents and emotionally immature homes who are tired of second-guessing every conversation, every text and every decision.
