This is a deeply insightful guide that sheds light on the manipulative tactics of gaslighting, particularly within toxic romantic relationships. With a mix of personal stories, psychological analysis, and expert advice, the book aims to empower individuals to recognise emotional abuse and take actionable steps toward healing.

The writer breaks down the terms and behaviours behind gaslighting, making it accessible to readers who may not be familiar with the term. They uses accounts and examples helping to illustrate the impact of gaslighting in a way that resonates emotionally and practically.
They offer actionable strategies, including self-reflection exercises, safety planning, and boundary-setting techniques that can help readers regain their confidence.

Unlike other books, it also doesn’t just focus on understanding gaslighting but also explores how to support recovery, including therapy, mindfulness, and reconnecting with one’s identity.
While powerful, the book may evoke emotionally intense feelings for readers who have personally experienced gaslighting. I also feel it is important to note that whilst insightful, it does not replace therapy or legal support, which may be necessary for individuals in highly abusive situations.

While relevant to relationships with partners, family, and friends, the book’s primary view is on romantic dynamics, which may not fully address all forms of gaslighting.

It does act as a compelling, guide that appears to be well-researched that offers practical tools for those navigating the confusing effects of emotional manipulation. I feel it is Ideal for readers seeking both understanding and action.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
