PTSD = Damage to Your Self-Worth
You stare at yourself in the mirror, and you don’t recognize this person. Nothing or no one would care to tell you what to do anymore, and the black rings under your eyes tell a story of crying millions of tears. There must be a reason he treats you the way he does. In the beginning, he wasn’t like this. Your relationship was different. Why do you pick fights? Why rub him the wrong way? You know he will yell, you will raise your voice, you both will accuse one another, and nothing ever gets solved. Is it your fault he abuses you? Do you push him over the edge? Abuse from narcissists can devastate your sense of self-worth, because it is a sort of indoctrination.
You tell lies to those closest to you because you don’t trust them, and you can’t allow them to see what you turned into. You don’t have enough space to carry all the humiliation and embarrassment on your shoulders.

~ I’ve felt this way. Have you? ~
Some mornings, I have woken up wondering why I just don’t die. I feel helpless and hopeless. My abuser doesn’t think I’m good enough, my family wants nothing to do with me, and even my friends are tired of my ups and downs, the drama, and the hours of trying to dry my tears—just to hear I’m going back to him. Everybody gave up on me, so why shouldn’t I? Some days, I get so anxious when he doesn’t answer my calls, puts his phone off, or doesn’t come home. I immediately want to cry because I just know he is going to leave me, too. How worthless am I, as a person if my abuser even abandons me?

Things to Say to Stop the Gaslighting

* “I don’t want to go into what he said or she said. We don’t have to have a dispute about this right now; we can discuss it later.”
* “What you are saying and what I am hearing is very different. We are not talking; we are trying to be louder to get our points across. We already have answers before one even finishes their question. Let’s leave this conversation until we both actually communicate. True communication entails one person speaking while the other listens, and then we swap roles. We are too tense and worked up, and it won't do any good now. We’ll try it another time.”
* “I don’t want to get into it now.”
* “It seems like we don’t remember the whole situation or all the facts. Let's ask (friends name) if he can come around and help us remember exactly what happened” (if you can involve others like friends, your priest, or even a counselor to help untangle messy states of affairs by getting a third perception to ask for assistance)

EMPTYING THE GASLIGHTER’S GAS TANK: Stay Calm

Their frequent abuse, nagging accusations, nasty comments, and belittlement can cause you to become very emotional.
You can become tearful, depressed, angry, or vengeful; cry; dread potential physical harm; and be suicidal.
I know it’s easier said than done, but try to remain calm and emotionless. Try to change the subject and, if possible, leave the house or go work in the garden. Read a book on the balcony, even if you’re not focusing on any of the pages. The point is to remove yourself from their presence if you must stay in the same environment. Go to your bedroom and do some meditation. Do some breathing exercises or relaxation techniques. Every time he or she wants to restart the fight, just say you don’t want to talk about it now. They will get bored if you don’t react and, if you’re lucky, they might leave the house or apartment, giving you some much-needed alone time.
