Take Back Your Life

**SECOND EDITION: UPDATED 2018**Are You Being Gaslighted?You're at a party and you notice your husband getting a bit too close to another woman. After the party, you confront him. He tells you to stop being so insecure and controlling; that he's his own man and if you don't like it, you shouldn't have acted like that in the first place. After arguing all night, you end up begging for forgiveness and apologize for the trouble. Maybe it's your mom - she's picking on you like it's a sport. She's worried about what you're wearing, what you're eating - who you're hanging out with - but it's unhealthy. Instead of fighting back, you just suck it up and take it - maybe you're too sensitive, or perhaps you really are crazy after all. Who can't take a bit of criticism, anyway? Or it's your boss, who told you that you had her support on your latest project, only to backpedal when it's time to present it to the team. Suddenly, she criticizes you for your poor choices and she's jumped ship - but when you talk to her later, she tells you it was wrong from the beginning and you need to be more careful in the future. You find yourself wondering if your judgment might really be flawed, after all. Maybe this stuff doesn't happen in your life, but for many people, it's an everyday reality. If you think it could never be you, think again!
